tunaman2011 Posted December 19, 2013 #2 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Greetings I wonder if this means there are drink price increases coming soon. Will have to wait and see. Good Sailing Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willman Posted December 19, 2013 #3 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Also, the classic package limit for beer has increased from $5 to $6. I did see a post with a wine by the glass MDR menu. Prices for many glasses of wine have increased by $1. Not sure about any increases for beer - liquor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miched Posted December 19, 2013 #4 Share Posted December 19, 2013 We received a letter in our cabin about the increase to $13 on our Nov 30 cruise. My wife seen that a glass of wine that she had on the last cruise was raised from $12 to $13. We asked the server about the price increase and he said that he wouldn't charge us the extra dollar as if he was doing us a favor. We later seen that letter in our cabin. There are a lot of inconsistencies. In the Molecular bar it has the 20 year Martini listed at either $16 or $18. We asked the bartender and was told that that was wrong and it was the same as the other drinks. .🎅🎄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpgcycler Posted December 19, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Can i ask where you saw this?I did a search and couldn't find anything. I've seen lots of requests for an updated list but not seen a response yet. Here's a link to a March 2013 Eclipse MDR list posted here by lsimon. I imagine some wines have been deleted/replaced and prices may have changed. http://lfsimon.home.comcast.net/~lfsimon/Celebrity%20MDR%20Wine%20List%20-%20Eclipse%20March%202013.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosjoe Posted December 19, 2013 #9 Share Posted December 19, 2013 (edited) On my Reflection cruise in November I had a few glasses of $13 wine and didn't get charged the extra buck. Last year the same glass was $12. I was surprised I didn't get a bill for overage as I didn't know it now covers drinks up to $13.

debmm Posted December 20, 2013 #10 Share Posted December 20, 2013 My wine by the glass was $8.50 on Eclipse in March. Don't really check the prices having the Premium Package but I am sure the same drink was $11.00 on Solstice last month. Cheers Deb :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downundermatt Posted December 20, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 20, 2013 On Equinox in November Clifford Bay Sav Blanc was not available on the basic liquor package, so I had to upgrade to the Premium, previous cruise this was not the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusieV Posted December 20, 2013 #12 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Has the $13 increase been confirmed? It was still $12 on Summit in October. I'm curious to see what drink prices have gone up if the package covers more now. If Qsine cocktails are still $13, that will be nice anyway!

marieps Posted December 21, 2013 #14 Share Posted December 21, 2013 There's been hail damage in Napa and France, and a devistating frost in Chile. Wine prices are headed higher not just on X, but in your local store as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopat08865 Posted December 21, 2013 #15 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Michael's Club on Connie's 12/14 cruise had The Macallan Whiskey Maker's Edition Scotch for $14. First few nights wasn't upcharged for my premium package. Last few nights they upcharged me a $1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhughey Posted December 21, 2013 #16 Share Posted December 21, 2013 (edited) We just got off the Silhouette on 12/15 and drinks up to $13 were covered under the premium package. There was a little "Beverage Package" flyer that I picked up in Cafe al Bacio while on board and it did say that beers up to $6 were covered under the classis package.

Do they make you sign for the overage? Or do you only find out when you review your total bar bill? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
