jody75 Posted June 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Can you upgrade from the Lunch/Dinner drinks package to Anytime Beverage Package ? If you can, what is the cost ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSULion Posted June 29, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) Last I heard it was "yes" and it was $20 per person per day. A good deal if you have generally have 3 or more drinks outside of lunch or dinner (mayb 2 based on some of O's drink prices).

auldlassie Posted June 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 30, 2016 PSULion is absolutely correct. Just did this on Riviera (told it was not possible to do before getting on ship). Did it at reception desk on boarding, before we went to lunch. They need to change your key cards to show the upgraded package, so best to do this before you might find yourself wanting to purchase drinks not included in standard package.

Rare goldengatecruisers Posted July 1, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) We will also have the standard package for an upcoming cruise and will want to upgrade upon embarkation to the prestige. When I cruised with Oceania a number of years ago I seem to recall the prestige package including spirits to a certain dollar value. Perhaps I am confusing this with another cruise line. Is this still the case? I downloaded the Bar List provided on the Oceania website and did not see any pricing. Is it that Oceania have now streamlined their drinks package to reduce any confusion. Does the prestige package include everything that is on the Bar List? Are additional reserve spirits, such as certain scotches, cognacs etc. on a separate 'purchase' list that one could sign for? Thank you. Edited July 1, 2016 by goldengatecruisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I few High end single malts and the like........ I had no problem ordering doubles of Grey Goose or some ports that ran $15-20 a shot... Also Hendricks at $18 a shot... a double hendricks and Tonic or a double goose martini can run you about $50 for the 2 !!!! Its not like NCL and Celeberity that limit you to $7 bar sock, and no doubles. Without overdoing it you can easily with wines by the glass save $90 to 100 a day by ordering really premimum stuff at $24 for a double maritni and a Gin Tonic at $24 and 2 glasses of wine at $18@ and a port at $24 you can easily get $108 in value a day for your 60 Remember your saving the 18% tip too!!!!! This frees you up from the happy hour horde and is a great value... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are confusing it with another line There may be some restriction on the top XO spirits just ask & it is wine by the glass only The Preismans blog have copies of the bar menu with prices http://www.thepreismans.com/riviera16_menus.htm#main_bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ronrick1943 Posted July 1, 2016 #7 Share Posted July 1, 2016 If your going to have a few drinks a day it's will worth the price. This way you can have a drink whenever you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSULion Posted July 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Does anyone know if BOTH parties need to upgrade the package, or can just one person in the cabin ? Thanks, J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare goldengatecruisers Posted July 1, 2016 #9 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Thank you for your answers. @PSULion, I do know that both passengers in the cabin will have to upgrade which is fine with us. So excited about this voyage at the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, J Both persons DO NOT have to get the package at all.....however good manners would preclude sharing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSULion Posted July 5, 2016 #11 Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Does anyone know if both parties need to upgrade? In a similar vein, if the cabin has the O choice option, does EACh passenger have to select the same O choice option (i.e. Drink package versus OBC versus excursions)? EDIT: I saw the answer in another thread. Do both passengers must select the same O choice option, but apparently ONE passenger can upgrade. Thanks.
