TheGaDawgFan Posted September 12, 2015 #2 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Regular coffee is included for everyone. Specialty coffee is not included in Select package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 13, 2015 #3 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Does the select drinks package include tea and coffee ect or is it just soda, I have only experienced Celebrity where the packages include this. The Select package includes soda, virtually all beers, and wine up to $8 per glass. Hot tea, iced tea, and regular coffee are included in the basic cruise fare, no packages needed.

Mim Lloyd Posted September 13, 2015 #4 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Wines up to $9 are included on European cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 13, 2015 #5 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Wines up to $9 are included on European cruises. It's the same wines that are included. However, since the wine prices on European cruises already have the 18% gratuity added, they needed to adjust the package limits accordingly.

Clarea Posted September 21, 2015 #7 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Bob that's just wine not champagne correct? Champagne is considered wine, so the Select package includes champagne up to $8 per glass. I'm not sure how many selections are available for that price.

Rare conandrob240 Posted September 21, 2015 #9 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Are there packages where wine above $8 is covered? Slim pickings at under $8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 21, 2015 #10 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Are there packages where wine above $8 is covered? Slim pickings at under $8. The Premium and Ultimate packages cover wine up to $12 per glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mim Lloyd Posted September 22, 2015 #11 Share Posted September 22, 2015 There isn't any champagne covered by the Select package, you need the Premium package for that. But a very drinkable Prosecco is covered by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKsunseeker Posted September 22, 2015 #14 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Personally unless you are an alchoholic I would avoid thee overpriced drinks packages completely and just order what you want. that way you will get better quality drinks and enjoy the cruise a little more sober. i saw a lot of people pouring drinks down their necks in order to justify the price they had paid for the packages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have cruised over 25 times and have drank some and had fantastic fun and never spent anywhere near $ 120 dollars a day for the two of us. But, the ones that do must find it to be a value. My wife and I are not one of those. A cold glass of water on a hot pool day tastes incredible! LOL:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a very drinkable Prosecco is covered by it. Champagne (to more more accurate...sparkling wine since it is not from the Champagne region of France) was indeed included in the Select Package on our Oasis cruise last month.

I am not an alcoholic but I like the drink package. It covers all the specialty coffee, OJ, and water that I want plus a few drinks at a show. Just because it is not beneficial to you do not assume it is not good for others. With the Ultimate package everything is paid for ahead of time and usually I break even at the end. It is worth it for me not to have a large bill at the end of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denatravels Posted September 22, 2015 #22 Share Posted September 22, 2015 I noticed that in this version of the document, there are no longer any per drink price limits listed. "Wines by the glass" versus "premium wines by the glass"-- guess that distinction is now coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow-- judge much? The only accurate word here is "personally"-- glad to see that works for you; may not for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
