Can you buy a bottle of wine to drink in Cabin?

[schwaja3]

I want to sit on my balcony and drink some wine with my wife. Can I buy a bottle of wine and have it in my cabin? How does this work?

 

Thanks!

Room service will deliver a bottle anytime. You can also order bottle in advance through http://www.ncl.com/freestyle-cruise/gifts-and-more and have it waiting on you when you arrive

 

About 1/2 way down you will see a pdf file you can open with the full wine list.

Lots of options....

 

• You could order a bottle through room service.
  
• You can purchase a bottle at any bar or restaurant and bring this back to your cabin.
  
• If you have any wine left over in a restaurant (partial bottle), this to can be brought back to your cabin.
  
• You can bring wine on the ship with you and pay the corkage fee when you board.
  
• You can pre-order wine as a gift for yourself through the NCL website.
  

 

 

There are wine packages where you can order 4, 6 or 8 bottles of wine. These work out to a starting price of about $22 per bottle for the most reasonably priced package selections and go up from there.

 

Hope this helps. Enjoy your cruise and your vino. Cheers!!

Really except for during the muster there is really no time or place someone won't bring you an alcoholic beverage :D

We do this all the time, get the Viva Vino package, ask our steward to empty the fridge, bring a couple of wine glasses from any bar, and there you go.

 

Wine in your cabin and wine available for dinner in any dining room just by asking and handing in a coupon which you get when you purchase the package.

I think we will be buying more than one bottle this summer ;)

Thanks for the info.

 

Cheers!

Hi, can you tell me when the Viva Vino package is made available for purchase?

At embarkation?

Yes on embarkation day. There will be a table set up (location depending on ship and port). Just ask about it. On Jewel recently they said day two also but I wouldn't count on it.

 

The wine package is a good deal and includes corkage. You'll be given vouchers which you can present at any bar or restaurant. If you don't finish your bottle, you can ask for the wine to be corked and stored for you. You'll be given and ticket which you can present at your next restaurant/bar, or just bring it back to your cabin as you please.

Sorry it took me so long to answer but I had the pleasure of babysitting my little darling GDs so... prioritizing :eek:

 

This list is courtesy of another CC member, unfortunately I can't find her name? The only thing I'm not sure about is whether they're making changes to the wine list, if so, we'll need to revamp this list anyway. I'm pretty sure she won't mind if I give the info for the Viva Vino packages:

Lots of answers above.

 

You can also just buy a bottle at any bar or restaurant and take it with you. Or you can buy a bottle,then take the balance to your room.

 

No problem at all.

Thanks for this info. I was considering the UBP but this looks Much better. I mainly drink wine but enjoy a cocktail on Holiday. If I get the Viva Vino package I would have to drink about 28 cocktail!!!! to make it more than the UBP. Lets hope it is available on the Epic from Barcalona.

I want to sit on my balcony and drink some wine with my wife. Can I buy a bottle of wine and have it in my cabin? How does this work?

 

Thanks!

We buy the wine package. You can drink it anywhere on the ship: get it from a bar, at the table or delivered to your cabin. Depending on the plan you take it runs about $90 to $125 for 4 bottles. Now I read the other answers, should have read them before. It looks like you have your answer.

Thanks all! We are planning on getting the 4 bottle package because we like to have a glass or two on the balcony. I think the 4 bottle package is about as reasonable as you can get. :)
