attilamom1217 Posted September 21, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Does anyone know the recent or approximate cost of cans of soda, bottles of water (not the premium), and/or the specialty coffees? Trying to determine if it is worth it to us to purchase the non-alcoholic classic package. thanks, Debbi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandtrap328 Posted September 21, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Cans of soda such as Coke or Sprite are about $2.75 plus 18 percent gratuity. As for the coffees, I believe they are $3.50 to around $5 plus the 18 percent gratuity. My travel agent always throws in the Premium drink package and the on-board gratuities for the staff as a perk for using their agency. It helps to use one agency in terms of building a relationship and loyalty to a brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know the prices of the bottled water (non premium)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastsider57 Posted September 21, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 21, 2016 I believe water is above 3 dollars plus 18 percent as a tip. We have the drink package and it is well worth it. We would not take a cruise again without the drink package of some type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2calgarycruisers Posted September 22, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Wow... Unless all you drink is water and the supplied coffee and tea and maybe an occasional pop I can't see how a drink package is not justified. The individual prices almost force you into it...

Other then that it's water or water with a bit of flavour for me. So yes for some a drink package would be a huge waste of money. I actually passed on one from TA, and took a smaller ( in comparason ) OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
