Mom.to.2 Posted January 12, 2014 #52 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Does anyone know if the Freestyle Coke machines offer Diet, CAFFEINE-FREE Coke?? The freestyle coke machines in restaurants near my home do (have caffeine-free coke/diet coke.) I'm guessing they're the same machines as on the ship.

Clarea Posted January 12, 2014 #54 Share Posted January 12, 2014 And where do you wash your refillable cup between drinks? Hate to have a water after a "sticky" Sprite withour rincing the sugar away.... When RCL just gave cups (without the chip inside, we used to turned them down: too big for my small hand and never clean enough for me... Any suggestion before we sail on the Excplorer of the seas? Thank you Any restroom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Sea 4Ever Posted January 12, 2014 #56 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Lol ewww. That's a good question. I've never used the free style machine before Bring a tiny container of dish soap and clean it everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyrica Posted January 12, 2014 #58 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) Bring a tiny container of dish soap and clean it everyday. Yes! We did this on our one and only cruise. Most of you would probably think to do this but I recommend putting it in a ziplock baggie because when they checked my bag they opened it ( to verify it wasn't alcohol?) but didn't close it all the way. It spilled all over the bag and everything on that side of the bag. Huge mess! Edited January 12, 2014 by Alyrica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyrica Posted January 12, 2014 #60 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Wow that sucks! Were you able to wash your clothes on the ship? We could have since Carnival offers self service laundry but clothing wise it only got on a couple of our socks. We mainly had gear and electronics :eek: in that bag. Luckily it mainly got the bottom of the bag, our snorkel gear and batteries that were in the packaging. In hindsight I didn't pack well...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lag9122 Posted January 12, 2014 #61 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Please tell me Liberty has free style machines.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 13, 2014 #62 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) Please tell me Liberty has free style machines.. I could do that, but that would not be accurate. No Freestyle machines. Edited January 13, 2014 by clarea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseAddict1982 Posted January 13, 2014 #63 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Does the machine automatically fill the cup up or do you control how much soda is out in? Never used the machine before and I like adding extra coke in my Long Island iced teas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daghis Posted January 13, 2014 #64 Share Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) It dispenses your chosen beverage while you hold in the "PUSH" button. There is some maximum length at which point it automatically shuts off, but it's probably larger than the cup size. When you release the button, it stops dispensing. Note that you do need to use the provided soda cup with the Freestyle machines. When you get your Long Island iced tea, that'll probably be in a different glass. You probably realized that already.

Yea I know the Long Island is in the plastic type cup. I was going to just put some soda in the freestyle cup then pour it in the Long Island. Thanks because I thought it automatically filled the cup to the top. I don't want to waste it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daghis Posted January 13, 2014 #66 Share Posted January 13, 2014 If you have a beverage package (which you must if you're talking about the Freestyle machines), maybe you could simply ask the bartender for a partial glass of Coke with your Long Island iced tea. I guess that would technically violate getting more than one drink at a time, but it sounds easier to get them both at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically it's not since coke is in a Long Island but it could be lol Either way is make it work but thanks for the ideas sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never used the machine before and I like adding extra coke in my Long Island iced teas Why not just ask for the bartender to put your Long island iced tea in a larger glass with extra coke added? You are making it way too complicated. The bartender will do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elvis1209 Posted January 13, 2014 #73 Share Posted January 13, 2014 i love these machineson allure never waited more than a couple minutes Everyone: Do us all a favor and learn how to use the machine BEFORE the cruise! It is so frustrating standing behind someone that has no clue as to their operation! If you go to the local Burger King you can practice!
