Rare hcat Posted April 23, 2018 #27 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Café Olé and Café Kingston are $9 and are included in the Classic Package. They were very good on our last march cruise on Eclipse. Thanks for posting the menus,,,easy to read,! We'll give the Kingston a try,,. Would the Aspen be only a dollar upcharge? We really enjoy it...but Kingston also sounds nice,.

We really enjoy it...but Kingston also sounds nice,. From what I heard, the upcharge is only from the premium package to the next one up, whatever the name is. If you have a classic package, you pay the full cost of the drink if it is not included in the package. Anyone else has actual experience in this situation ?

Sent from my SM-T560NU using Forums mobile app There is no "next one up". The Premium package has a price ceiling of $13 for all alcoholic drinks and you pay the difference plus 18% gratuity for drinks priced above $13 - a $15 glass of wine with the Premium package would cost an additional $2.36. They changed the Classic up-charge policy sometime in 2016 when they changed the Classic price ceiling to $9 for all alcoholic drinks. You now only pay the difference plus the associate 18% gratuity - a $12 martini will cost you an additional $3.54. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the classic package on the upcoming Baltic cruise June 17, so it's good to have the current rules. Is it still possible to upgrade to Premium for the last 4 days of the cruise, for one of the two people in the cabin ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobeck Posted May 10, 2018 #34 Share Posted May 10, 2018 We were just on the Silhouette in April and we had the classic drink package. Several evenings we had the Affogato with Kahlua over the top at no extra charge. So delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums You used to be able to get the Affogato with the classic package, which was espresso poured over gelato. So you could get gelato included that way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
