knittinggirl Posted February 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2015 How much are the soft drinks when we use the special soft drink value card? Also, what soft drinks can we get with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
take us away Posted February 8, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 8, 2015 HAL is a Coke-offering company - check out HALFACTS.com for the bar menu to see the list of sodas. With the $25 soda card (worth $50 in soda) you usually get an 8-oz glass at I think $1.50 + 15% gratuity. With a standard beverage card, you can get a can of soda for $1.95 + the 15% gratuity but this has no discount for the soda just the convenience of not having a long list of soda charges on your account.

Krazy Kruizers Posted February 8, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 8, 2015 $50.00 Soda Card cost $25.00 The ships have now changed from giving you a can to just about 6 ounces of fountain soda. Your soda card is charged $1.50 + 15% gratuity ($0.23) for a total of $1.73 for each “glass” of soda. Without a soda card, you can buy a “can” of soda for $1.95 + 15% gratuity ($0.30) for a total of $2.25 a can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceanwench Posted February 8, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 8, 2015 (edited) On our recent cruise, I bought my husband the $25 soda card. Sometimes he was served a small glass. Sometimes a bigger glass. Sometimes he was served a glass of ice and a can of soda. I never could figure it out. I always thought you got cans with the $25 card. I thought the fountain drinks were back when it was unlimited. My daughter took the card to a bar to get two sodas and they have her two cans and charged her for three $1.50 sodas.

bobbisailsolo Posted February 9, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 9, 2015 This sounds rather confusing. I don't get it:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
take us away Posted February 10, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Too true - there is the norm: soda card dispensed soda in an 8-oz glass, room card with the soda can. Then there are the exceptions which is up to the bar steward for passengers with the soda card to use a larger glass or to rarely provide the can. Room card purchase is always a can unless otherwise requested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathfinderEss Posted February 10, 2015 #7 Share Posted February 10, 2015 You can get these soda's listed below. If you have a soda card you will pay around 1.95 for a glass, if you buy it in a can without the soda card it will be about 2.25.

Oceanwench Posted February 10, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I thought when they did the unlimited soda card, they did fountain beverages. I thought when they went to the $25 card for $50 worth of beverages, they started giving out the cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globaliser Posted February 11, 2015 #9 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I thought when they went to the $25 card for $50 worth of beverages, they started giving out the cans.They did cans for a while, but this changed over a year ago. It's now a soft drink from the gun for $1.50 plus $0.23 = $1.73 - but as you've only paid $25 for the card, if you can finish the card you're effectively only paying $0.86 per glass (as opposed to $1.95 plus $0.30 = $2.25 for buying a can on your room key).
