Cybercsp Posted June 11, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Hello, To our utter delight, our guarantee cabin (G) for our 6/13 Sirena cruise landed us in an A2 Concierge Balcony cabin. If we choose to take the complimentary champagne to the dining room, will we be charged for corkage? That is, of course, if we do not open it on the balcony!! SO Excited about our upcoming cruise!

bitob Posted June 11, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 11, 2016 No. Any wine or champagne provided by Oceania is exempt from the corkage fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mura Posted June 11, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Sometimes we have taken the champagne to dinner and shared with the others (generally not if we were more than 4) ... or have it in our cabin ... It's up to you! We're not real champagne drinkers so we like to share it with another couple, but it's entirely up to you. Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jr8934 Posted June 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 15, 2016 We were able to have the concierge exchange the bottle of champagne for a bottle of wine. Don't be afraid to ask! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted June 15, 2016 #6 Share Posted June 15, 2016 We were able to have the concierge exchange the bottle of champagne for a bottle of wine. Don't be afraid to ask! I did not think they did that anymore?? How long ago did you exchange it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mura Posted June 15, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I recall the same thing, Lyn ... read it here. The last time we wanted to switch there was no problem, but for us that was at least two years ago. I don't know why they decided no longer to permit the switch ... there must be a reason but for me, it doesn't really make sense. Then again, I don't stock the ship with any of its supplies.

Mura I remember May '15 cruise we drank the Champs because we could not swap it They probably had a stockpile of Champagne taking up space for all the swapping out to wine ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr8934 Posted June 16, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Sorry. I didn't know they stopped the practice. We did it in 2012 on the Riviera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted June 16, 2016 #10 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Sorry. I didn't know they stopped the practice. We did it in 2012 on the Riviera. lots of changes in 4 years ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mura Posted June 16, 2016 #11 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Indeed ... we regret the loss of this one as well since we're not big champagne drinkers. Won't need it this time anyway since we accepted a "down sell". Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babysteps Posted June 17, 2016 #12 Share Posted June 17, 2016 If you bring your complimentary bottle of bubbly from your room to a dining venue, ask and they can likely swap it for a bottle of the same bubbly that is already chilled :) At least they have done so for us (iirc it was our server's suggestion).
