trapps30 Posted June 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I'm considering getting one of the beverage packages on LOS but I want to know if they have Powerade available on the ship. I know they don't have the freestyle machines so I was wondering if you were able to get them from the bars? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they don't have the freestyle machines so I was wondering if you were able to get them from the bars? Thanks Without a Freestyle machine, your choices of soda with a drink package are limited to the fountain choices of Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Ginger Ale, Tonic Water, and Soda Water. Some have reported being able to get cans of soda, but that is the exception, not the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted June 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 20, 2017 If you love Powerade, carry your own on board. They rarely care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trapps30 Posted June 20, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted June 20, 2017 From what I've read they do check...they want you to buy the packages! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted June 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 20, 2017 From what I've read they do check...they want you to buy the packages! I agree with Carol, it would be very unusual for them to deny someone bringing on water or soft drinks. Might be more of an issue around spring break.

factor Posted June 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I didn't see Powerade on the LOS offered. And I had the drink package. I would suggest taking your own with you Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicfairy Posted June 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I'm going to bring a 12 pk of Coke Zero on our LOS trip in August. People would jump over board if they had to be around me for a whole week with no caffeine 😂. And those bar soda guns just don't have the right taste. It's fine I guess for a mixer but to drink plain I've always thought it tastes like there is not enough syrup in it. JMO Oh and I'm not a coffee or tea drinker so Soda is my drug of choice😉 Sent from my SM-J700T1 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJustice Posted June 20, 2017 #8 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Kids found PowerAde last week on LOS, but I'm not sure where :( I THINK Café Promenade had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you just packing in your checked bags and hoping they don't take it? Or will they let you bring it in a carry on? So many differing opinions.

Water and soda are technically prohibited, but almost always allowed. At some ports, the porters will take a case of water with a luggage tag, other ports they won't. We put the water in luggage and check it, and it is rarely detained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARCruisinNana Posted June 20, 2017 #11 Share Posted June 20, 2017 We brought a case of water onboard LB last week. We just put a luggage tag on it and it was delivered with out luggage. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPP777 Posted June 20, 2017 #12 Share Posted June 20, 2017 When you enter the pool deck on 11 from the aft elevators, go left to Squeeze bar. They have Powerade there. Just on Liberty this past week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstimmons Posted June 20, 2017 #13 Share Posted June 20, 2017 They also have Powerade at the ice cream shop but it was $3.75 a bottle if irc. I did notice that you could buy a separate package deal on the flyer in the room but it seemed as expensive as the avion water package. Didn't know about the squeeze bar, that's good info.

I do not like the powerade type drinks but my Dd and Dh do and it would be great because they are both sweat heavily.

We were told and have done it once before to just put it in a small duffle bag and put a room tag on it and it was delivered. I think as long as you're not bringing massive quantities it's no big deal. Now if i was selling it out of my cabin lol they wouldn't be happy!

cb at sea Posted June 22, 2017 #17 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Officially, they say NO beverages of ANY kind. They really only care about booze....except for those 2 bottles of wine (don't know why wine is accepted....it gets me drunk faster than anything!)...a few sodas or water (although there is PLENTY of FREE WATER on the ship...same stuff as in those nasty bottles!)...is overlooked 99% of the time. Bring a few poweraids if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ccarroll1100 Posted June 23, 2017 #19 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I did not realize LOS does not have the free style machines. Do you still get a mug if you buy a drink package? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FPP777 Posted June 23, 2017 #21 Share Posted June 23, 2017 My recent experience on the Liberty..... There were two families for a total of 6 in our party. I packed two 12 packs of soda in 2 30 gallon trash bags, then packed that in a small duffle. The valet just took my bag and put it on the cart. He may have known what was in there, or maybe not, but either way it went on. It arrived at my room with the rest of my luggage. My friend on the other hand did some last minute shopping and showed up with two loose 6 packs and a small case of water. They refused it as checked luggage, but told him to stick as much in their carry ons, and that would be ok. They indicated they are more afraid of cans getting damaged and leaking all over others luggage, then of it being brought on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
