lisabbscott Posted September 21, 2016 #27 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Does anyone know if they are still offering the Starbucks 10 punch card that is prepaid? Sent from my SM-T530NU using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportmorgan Posted September 21, 2016 #28 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Ugh, we bought two packages based on inclusion of Starbucks for our upcoming trip. This is really a bait and switch. Perhaps I'll cancel. Get with the program Royal! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkiegirl3 Posted September 21, 2016 #30 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I'm assuming it would still cover the coffee drinks at Cafe Promenade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyeilis Posted September 21, 2016 #32 Share Posted September 21, 2016 If it didn't cover those, it would not cover much. If it didn't cover those, what *would* it cover? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleosprey Posted September 21, 2016 #33 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Yes, the sneaky buggers changed it. Attached is the original. Now you know why I keep a copy of their documents, rather than just the link. Thanks you for this link I have saved it and will keep it to show the staff on my cruise on the Harmony coming up that I want my starbucks. Thats the only reason I bought it As a good will gesture they should honour this as people are buying the package because they think it has certain items in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 21, 2016 #34 Share Posted September 21, 2016 If it didn't cover those, what *would* it cover? :) If the package did not cover beverages coffee beverages in Cafe Promenade, then only restaurants wouldbe covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whyrlygig Posted September 21, 2016 #35 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I can confirm that it is indeed included! I used it many times last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whyrlygig Posted September 21, 2016 #37 Share Posted September 21, 2016 What ship? Enchantment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 21, 2016 #38 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Enchantment Enchantment does not have a dedicated Starbucks venue. Enchantment has a Cafe Latte-Tudes, which has always been included in the Replenish and Ultimate packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Propro Posted September 21, 2016 #39 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I just cancelled our royal replenish package for Oasis on 10/1. I called RCCL and they first told me that starbucks was included, but when I mentioned that her answer contradicted the FAQ that's on their website, she put me on hold and went to ask. She confirmed that starbucks is NOT included in my package, but said they are still selling cafe select coffee cards onboard only that have 15 specialty coffee beverages for $36.58. I'll look for those to see if that's really being offered on our cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvstitch Posted September 21, 2016 #40 Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) I'm so confused. I am sailing on the Freedom, if Starbucks isn't included, where would I get premium coffee from? I can only justify getting the Premium package if it includes Starbucks. Edited September 21, 2016 by lvstitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules815 Posted September 21, 2016 #41 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Yes, the sneaky buggers changed it. Attached is the original. Now you know why I keep a copy of their documents, rather than just the link. Wow...they did change it! To be honest, I was pretty surprised they were including Starbucks. We've always been fine with the specialty coffees/teas at the Promenade Cafe, but I'll admit, I was a little excited at the thought of being able to get actual Starbucks included with our package on the Harmony TA. Oh well, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torchd Posted September 21, 2016 #42 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I sail on 9/24 on Adventure of the Seas. I am have the Deluxe package booked. Am I covered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanseagle12 Posted September 21, 2016 #43 Share Posted September 21, 2016 This is frustrating. I bought the drink package only when learning that the revamped packages were going to include Starbucks! :mad: I wonder if they will honor the terms for those who purchased it before the change?

The Scurvy Pirate Posted September 21, 2016 #44 Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) So what about those of us who had purchased the "Ultimate" package that included Starbucks, but now got "down graded" to Deluxe, without receiving some compensation for no longer having Starbucks? Maybe this just applies to "new" purchases and not those of us that were transitioned from the old to the new package?

I can only justify getting the Premium package if it includes Starbucks. All specialty coffees are included on Freedom, even if they use Starbucks beans.

When we bought our packages, and too be fair, we booked the old PP and where very happy to hear that we would upgraded to the new Deluxe, and at that time, it did include Starbucks. We are on Allure Jan and were looking forward to their coffee. Edited September 21, 2016 by troykahack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borg1of2 Posted September 21, 2016 #49 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I don't think that the "ultimate" ever included Starbucks ... only coffee drinks from Lattetudes/Cafe Promenade. It did. On ships that didn't have a dedicated Starbucks kiosk. So, basically not on Oasis class, but yes on on all the other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted September 22, 2016 #50 Share Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) It did. On ships that didn't have a dedicated Starbucks kiosk. So, basically not on Oasis class, but yes on on all the other ships. And that coffee is still included in the new deluxe package. There is no difference from what was included in the old Ultimate package and the new Deluxe package with respect to specialty coffees.
