QTPieRye Posted October 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I am sure the answer to my question may be buried in one of the detailed threads, but I don't have time to read through hundreds of pages.... Will somebody please tell me what non-alcoholic drinks are included with Cheer's program and how it works. Do they count towards 15 limit? Do you have to wait 5 minutes in between? What type of non-alcoholic drinks do they have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seany527 Posted October 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Good questions. Is there a 5 min wait in between? Anyone know? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoccerMom#3 Posted October 2, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I don't know if there is a 5 minute wait but soda is included as is non-alcoholic fruity drinks such as virgin pina colada. Bottled water is NOT included although you get 25% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QTPieRye Posted October 2, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted October 2, 2014 If anyone has the link for the new program, a link is appreciated. Trying to figure out if non-alcoholic beverages (i.e. virgin pina colada) count towards 15 drink max. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conwebstorm Posted October 30, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 30, 2014 No Sodas do not count on your drink limit...soda is unlimited...I read the entire policy but am very upset that it went from 37.50 per day to 49.95 per day for 7 day cruises...it was less the longer you cruised. Now flat rate...not sure it's worth it.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcp9984 Posted November 1, 2014 #11 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Yes the five min wait applies to all drinks under cheers whether alcohol or not. If you have a good bartender they will go ahead and give you an alcoholic drink for you and a soda for your kid while you are sitting at the bar!

marshhawk Posted November 1, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 1, 2014 I guess it pays off if you drank 5-6 drinks with alcohol and 9-10 NA drinks, but that would be a lot of sugar! I like the fruit punch without booze, and I see that is not covered, just frozen drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
