And, if so, can they use them to get a fancy virgin beverage? Yes to both. Enjoy your cruise. Here's a link to the VIFP Program Benefits for each level for reference. http://www.carnival.com/loyalty/benefits.aspx Edited June 18, 2014 by sjcruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising with the family Posted June 18, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thanks! They will be excited, as the past guest party didn't have the drinks they really wanted. :) I will miss that party though...guess we need to cruise more!

mephistoles Posted June 18, 2014 #4 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Yes...we cruised the Breeze last year. We (including our then 11 year old DS) got the complimentary beverages and were able to order "virgin" drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order virgin drinks for them at the gold, platinum and Diamond party. Of course, a tip will help too. A dollar or two depending on how many people in your party.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Ellen1 Posted June 18, 2014 #7 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Did this on our last cruise. Here's to a virgin Mojito! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinm Posted June 18, 2014 #8 Share Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) I tired to use mine on a coffee drink but they said it was a premium drink :rolleyes: It was in fact a cheaper drink, from their menue, than I was allowed to get. It irritated me to a point I didn't want it any more. I wish it was more clear what you can use it on. \ Edited June 18, 2014 by martinm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acbat1 Posted June 18, 2014 #9 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Yes and also smoothies. Our son got a strawberry one and it was pretty good. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Yes the smoothies look great. My kids get them with their coupon and they love them. It's my 1 year old's third carnival cruise and I usually grab/ask for one of the buffet cups to pour his in because they are too large for him.

ccruisequeen Posted June 19, 2014 #10 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Yes. I usually get a banana split (virgin version of dirty banana) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigercat Posted June 20, 2014 #11 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I asked for a virgin pina colota and was told it wasn't allowed. I ended up giving it to my daughter for a soda. tigercat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuehn1 Posted June 20, 2014 #12 Share Posted June 20, 2014 When are you given the free drink coupons? We are gold this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbCRR Posted June 20, 2014 #13 Share Posted June 20, 2014 The coupon should be in your cabin on the first or second day. It's a full page paper with the bottom portion being a tear off coupon. There has been once or twice I didn't get mine, and just called Guest Services for them to drop off a new one. You get it on all cruises after your first. I usually get a Mocha Chocolate Getaway or a Cruiser. Yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zumbaguy Posted June 20, 2014 #14 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Yes. My cruise drink of choice is the virgin pina colada. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Edited June 20, 2014 by zumbaguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILCruzr Posted June 20, 2014 #15 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Don't get the smoothies. They aren't good. I prefer a virgin something lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lettienets Posted June 20, 2014 #16 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Used mine in dining room at lunch and got a nice big cappucchino. But no alcohol. Did not know I could get fancy coffee.

It does have to be used in one of the MDR during brunch, though. Sorry you weren't able to get your beverage of choice. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzinlisa Posted June 20, 2014 #24 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Everyone who is a past guest will get their own coupon. We got a n.a. smoothie of some kind for DD last cruise. DH and I had some of it as well, because she was only 2 and didn't drink much of it. DH would have loved it if they had let him use it for his own drink but they asked us for her SS card. I am pretty sure they would not have allowed us to order our 2 year old a bud light. Edited June 20, 2014 by cruzinlisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
