jcann4444 Posted November 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Do you find they will give you one or two drinks at a time. I know it’s always changing and was wondering what the current situation has been of late for recent cruises.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Many people have reported that as long as they see you and your significant other getting drinks for each other they have no problem giving you two at a time since they know you are on UBP.

Rare POA1 Posted November 10, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Yes. I believe that the terms and conditions even state that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cheersforbeers Posted November 10, 2017 #4 Share Posted November 10, 2017 On the Jade in October. After the first round, we were able to order 2 drinks with a single card. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinIllinois Posted November 10, 2017 #5 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Yes. I believe that the terms and conditions even state that. That is correct. I learned something new, never noticed that before. https://www.ncl.com/terms/ultimate-beverage-package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted November 10, 2017 #6 Share Posted November 10, 2017 The terms have shown both 1 and 2 per transaction. In reality, once they know that 2 people are together and both have the UBP, 2 per card isn't a problem even when the terms have 1 per transaction.

Rare POA1 Posted November 10, 2017 #7 Share Posted November 10, 2017 That is correct. I learned something new, never noticed that before. https://www.ncl.com/terms/ultimate-beverage-package I read it before our cruise last month. From a practical standpoint, they were often ringing 3 or 4 drinks on one card. The bartenders knew that DW, DSIL and DBIL all had the UBP and it wasn't unusual for them to grab one card for the whole round. It probably looked my brother-in-law and I were fish because ours were the cards most often used. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpjb Posted November 10, 2017 #8 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Our last cruise was with 8 people, and if we ordered a round they'd ask for 2 cards. It wasn't uncommon to get 4 drinks at a time on one card, and this was throughout the ship. Not just at one bar, and not just when they were busy and trying to save time.

hawkeyetlse Posted November 11, 2017 #10 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I intend to play butler for my Wife....wait hand and foot on her needs....would hate to have to make two trips when we both want a beverageThere may still be members of bar staff that cling to the "one drink per transaction" rule, but you can easily prepare yourself for this by making sure have both of your keycards with you when you go up to the bar. You shouldn't ever have to make two trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cheersforbeers Posted November 11, 2017 #11 Share Posted November 11, 2017 Why not just 1 person taking 2 cards? Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacmo24 Posted November 11, 2017 #12 Share Posted November 11, 2017 On the Escape in July we had no issue getting whatever we wanted in whatever quantity we wanted. The bartenders would say "just give me one card". On the Sky with the AI though, it was one drink at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keith00200 Posted November 12, 2017 #14 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I was just on 10/28-11/4 and never had an issue getting 1-4 drinks on one card. Only time the waiter hesitated was when we bought the guitarist a glass of wine...we had to get it for us and then give it to him. He was great, does a show in Cellars and Tobacco Road, gets the whole crowd singing along at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
