Quick drink package question?

[amscene1]

If I buy a drink package for myself, am I required to buy it for everyone in my stateroom like carnival ?

No.

[Ourusualbeach]

No.

So what if u have the drink package and you want to get a drink for yourself and a drink for your cabin mate (who also has a drink package), can you do that? Or does other person (ie... 80 year old mother) have to get up off lounger and get her own?

People report that if you bring two SeaPass cards to the bar, you can get two drinks.

That's great news as my dw does not drink. Thanks!

And Royal does not cut you off after 15 drinks, like Carnival does.

I was able to get a drink for me and my DH plus 2 bottles of water with the 2 seapasses.

Nice, in the select package (beer and wine), is all beers included?

There are one or two excluded. I know that the Chimay 750ml is excluded.

Foster's, too, as I recall.

That's the best news I heard all day. Celebrity capped them at $8.00 I believe so there was a bunch I found not try.

This would be correct for us. By just naturally visiting w the bartenders and waitstaff, we would always make sure introduce ourselves the first visit at each bar we frequented. They then generally recognized us and there was never an issue going forward. :)

No Guiness either.

[boxermom711]

There are always waiters walking around on the pool deck & will take your seapass & get your drink for you & your mother

[amscene1]

Wait so are all the special beers available at the pub. I saw like 30-40 of them on the menu. Someone said no Guinness, why not, that should be in the same price range as the others...

Its RCCL's package they can exclude anything they want

[amscene1]

That does not answer the question, obviously they can exclude everything they want. my question was are those beers included or not?

[boxermom711]

I think most of them were 2 years ago. We hung out a lot in the pub that year. I know there were a few that weren't but I think the majority were. Enjoy

[mollyeilis]

my question was are those beers included or not?

 

Which beers? Guinness, Fosters "oil can", and the big Chimay have already been listed as not included.

 

You asked why not Guinness. And the answer is basically "because". Why not Foster's? I can get that for 1.99 at my grocery store most weeks...why wouldn't it be included? "Because".

[bonvoyagebites]

From a website that I used to research this same question (not a commercial site, so I THINK it is allowed)...

 

http://www.cruisewithgambee.com/royal-caribbean-drink/

 

If you scroll down to the beer pages, the ones with an asterisk (*) are NOT included.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi all

First post (first cruise booked Dec '15 from Brisbane down under on Legend).

Further to this drinks package query, I have this one of my own:

 

If only one person (me) in our twin stateroom has purchased a drink package, then I can get one drink at a time - fair & understood.:)

Now, is there anything to then stop me to go back to the bar and get another drink then go back to where ever I may be at the time and give this to the other person from my stateroom who has not purchased a drink package, thereby effecting a '2 for 1' situation?:cool:

Only the rules and your own conscience. I knew someone last year who had the package. He gave the soda cup to DS and bought virgins for DD while he and wife more or less shared the cocktails. Not quite ethical, IMHO. Discretion is important if you're going to do it though. I wouldn't hand my package drink to someone right there in front of the bartender. There is a time constraint too, something like 15 minutes between drinks.

Something else to consider. . . .

 

If you were to do this, you might get away with sharing (even though it's prohibited) in an area like the pool deck where you order your drink then walk away to a different area. But what about times where you're confined to a smaller area such as during shows or at dinner. You wouldn't be able to share in those settings - at least I wouldn't think you could.

And the staff are trained to look out for 'sharers'
