FirePolice16NJ Posted April 22, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2017 the drink package is based on a value of the drink you order. all drinks under a certain cost are included all others are not. I don't recall what the exact cost was but I think between 9 and 10. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleteace Posted April 22, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 22, 2017 It's all included :-) The beverage package pretty much includes everything apart from bottled water and tea/coffee from the atrium. I've tried to go through it all here as I know it can be confusing: http://cruisingisntjustforoldpeople.co.uk/2016/09/10/ncls-ubp/ The drink limit is $15 but I never found anything that cost more than that. Hope that helps! Have a fabulous time. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Dreaming Posted April 22, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I did!! Chocolate martini was 17$. I was happy to pay the 2$ they charged me!! It was delicious. The two times I ordered it the waiter did remind me that there would be an extra charge since it was over the limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdsgu Posted April 25, 2017 #17 Share Posted April 25, 2017 You will only have to pay gratuities on the portion of the drink that exceeds $15. If you order a drink that costs $20, you will pay the extra $5 plus $0.90 gratuity. The drink package would cover the first $15 and you have to cover the remainder with your S&S card. On the other hand, if you order a drink that costs exactly $15, you will not have any other expense. The entire cost of the drink is covered by your drink package, as is the gratuity.

Yes you pay an additional 18% on the cost difference of any drink over 15.00. The prepaid only includes drinks valued up to 15.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance Did you really buy this package at $79 pp per day? Why wouldn't you have booked a cabin with offering it for 99 per person 7 night cruise?

Why wouldn't you have booked a cabin with offering it for 99 per person 7 night cruise? The 99.00 is the gratuity on the drink package if you get that as a perk, just to clarify. Some people might believe you can just buy the package for that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
