Pre-pay for soda package?

[ErinG]

OK, please forgive me in advance, as I know questions about these packages are posted constantly.

 

My husband an I sailed on the Getaway last year and purchased the soda package after we were on board, where we received our sticker and cups. We are sailing on the Epic in February and considering purchasing our soda package ahead of time. What I am wondering is...

 

1. if you pre-pay, do they put the sticker on your card ahead of time?

2. how do you get the cups? Do you still have to go get them in the designated areas once on board?

 

Just curious. If we have to go find the cups and stickers anyway, we might just wait to do it on board.

 

THANK YOU!!

You will have the sticker on your card already. You get your cup from any bar once onboard. Occasionally, they have tables set up in the terminal to purchase the plan and you can get your cups there as well.

Also, if you don't really care about the cup, there's no need to worry about hunting it down.

Is there any advantage to buying it ahead of time? Embarkation? shortly after ship leaves port? Are the taxes different? Price different? :confused:
