pbrmom Posted August 16, 2016 #5 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Celebrity is running a special through August 31st. 30% off the price of the packages. Not sure if it is only repositioning cruise but I just saved "a boatload." Not able to book on line, must need to book directly with celebrity![emoji481][emoji485][emoji483][emoji484] Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted August 17, 2016 #7 Share Posted August 17, 2016 "That is a lot of money on alcohol" don't forget that price includes soft drinks, coffees, special teas, & bottled waters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted August 17, 2016 #8 Share Posted August 17, 2016 "That is a lot of money on alcohol" don't forget that price includes soft drinks, coffees, special teas, & bottled waters. And it really doesn't take that long to add up. We have never bought the package outright but sure have made it worth our while when it has been offered as a perk. Since we like better wines, the premium package is more to our liking. For mixed drinks, I don't really care but some do so that might also be a consideration.

pbrmom Posted August 17, 2016 #9 Share Posted August 17, 2016 The special 30% off the beverage packages is not advertised but I saw on cruise critic. But i did book it tonight on my transatlantic and save about $300 pp because it's 15 nights. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it the 30%off is a promo that expires at the end of the month. Applies to Transatlantic & some repositioning cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackieo Posted August 17, 2016 #12 Share Posted August 17, 2016 That is a lot of money on alcohol. It's not just alcohol. It covers tea coffee bottled water and soda Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallie5446 Posted August 17, 2016 #13 Share Posted August 17, 2016 That is a lot of money on alcohol. On our last cruise the wifester and I averaged 8 charges a day for non alcholic coffee and tea's. Without a Bev pkg it would have been $20+ each or more. Always had a triple shot expresso with desert after dinner. I figured our daily cost for liquid based on our final bill, without a package would have been well over $100 for each of us per day. EW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even before we got all the freebies with our Elite+ perks we would never spend that much money per day on drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). It is a lot of money.

There is no way I would spend 65 dollars a day for 10 days on drinks - whether that is water, wine, coffee, beer or cocktails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodtime Cruizin Posted August 17, 2016 #17 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Can you get 30% off the upgrade from Classic to Premium? lol I loved to receive this 30% off an upgrade from Classic to Premium, but I doubt this will happen. But does anyone know what the difference the cost/day will be if I upgrade while on the ship? Or should I do it now w/ my TA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wine-O Posted August 17, 2016 #19 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Can you get 30% off the upgrade from Classic to Premium? lol No, it's 30% off all beverage packages. The upgrade from classic to premium is $10 a day + 18% gratuity -- or just $11.80 a day for the remaining days of your cruise that you upgrade.

See, this is where each of us is different and don't need to input our likes on others. By the glass, the red wine the wifester liked was $13.50, times 3 or 4, would have cost $58. So now for only wine and coffee we are at $80 a day. Yes we are Elite, but the wine choices at the HH are horrid. EW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As elite plus ,I get a 10% discount on any drink package and I can drink at one of the bars at any time instead of 5-7 at the HH happy hour.

One thing I'm not seeing in this thread is the benefit of having the "all inclusive experience" where you may get something to try and never have to think about deciding if you want to spend the money. I don't know if I drink enough to make it financially beneficial, but I do feel like it's emotionally beneficial. Besides I pay for it far enough in advance that when I'm using it, I've already forgotten the cost and it feels free. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
