SugarStar00 Posted March 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) Without the search feature my research is limited, but I've been reading that the "trial" all inclusive drink package is has now gone fleet wide and is available on the Emerald. I'm curious what the details are from someone who's been on board recently. How much per day? Does everyone in the room have to purchase? Does is include soda, water and specialty and brewed coffees? Does this count for buckets of beer or do you have to buy each beer individual? Can you order a "double" and have it count as two? Is there a limit? Do drinks on Princess Cays count towards this package? Is there tax on either the package itself or the drinks while still in port? Thanks so much.

petlady7 Posted March 3, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Thank you Michael , we are on the same cruise as you , out of curiosity does Anthony know yet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmoger Posted March 3, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Thank you Michael , we are on the same cruise as you , out of curiosity does Anthony know yet ? You're welcome. Yes he knows. It originally was suppose to be a surprise but Princess sent him an email and let the cat out of the bag. ;) I had arranged with my TA to send everything only to me via email but never thought about all the Princess emails. It was my fault but it really doesn't matter. I do ALL the planning so in reality every time he does something it's a surprise!! :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted March 3, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 3, 2014 We were very recently on Crown Princess and bought "Alcohol Stickers". Should be the same for Emerald. How much per day? $40 + 15% each day Does everyone in the room have to purchase? Yes, we both had to buy one. Does is include soda, water and specialty and brewed coffees? It includes sodas, specialty & brewed coffees. Never ordered water so don't know about that. :D Does this count for buckets of beer or do you have to buy each beer individual? You have to order each beer individually. Can you order a "double" and have it count as two? It only includes drinks costing $10 or less so a double would cost more than that. Hint: Order a single of what you want and sign that tab ... then, order a shot straight-up. Is there a limit? There is no limit. You can order as many drinks as you like. Do drinks on Princess Cays count towards this package? Yes! Same as one the ship. Things like Coke will be served to in a can. Drinks at Vines are included. Also, the MDR. Room Service drinks are NOT. Bottles of wine costing less than $100 get a 40% discount. Hope this helps a bit. LuLu ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SugarStar00 Posted March 3, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted March 3, 2014 haha DARN it! $40 would have better. ;) Thanks for the great info. Being able to use this on Princess Cays really puts a mark in the "pros" column. Did you find it difficult to get bar service? I know everyone is different, but did you find it worthwhile? Thanks!

Libertarian Posted March 3, 2014 #15 Share Posted March 3, 2014 I am confused with this new drink package. Does every adult on the ship have to buy it? Can you still get the UKP? I can't drink because of medical reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My typo of $40 not $49 would have been better. Sorry about that! :o We had no problem at all getting great bar service using the "Alcohol Sticker"! :) For us it was worthwhile because we both drink. He more than I but it worked out on the positive side for us ... and, yes we would do it again. :) LuLu ~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't drink because of medical reasons. You don't have to buy it. However, if one person in your cabin buys it then every person in the cabin has to buy it.

melody hounddog Posted March 4, 2014 #22 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Does is include soda, water and specialty and brewed coffees? It includes sodas, specialty & brewed coffees. Never ordered water so don't know about that. :D ~~~~ [/size][/font] Water is included in the package. We would get a large bottle from any bar and take that back to our room. We would also grab a couple of bottles of water or soda that they sell as you exit the ship to go ashore.

marco Posted March 4, 2014 #23 Share Posted March 4, 2014 We were on the Emerald last month. They offered the water/soda card and the coffee card, but they did NOT offer the alcoholic drinks card on our cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
