? On bottomless bubbles soda package

[dwaterhouse]

if you are in a U.S. Port...do you get charged and pay tax for your soda , even if you pre purchased the package ?

[SadieN]

Yes, you will be charged tax on the drinks you order until you’re in international waters.

It is pennies though, nothing major. Seriously, like ten cents a glass give or take.

[Lottacruises]

I think 13 cents in Texas.

I read that the bottled water comes without a cap, is that true? I would want to take it on excursions with us. Can I request a cap?

We have often bought water before leaving the ship for an excursion and it is always unopened.

Never seen this happen. Always have cheers and get bottles unopened. Bottle of beer they usually open, but not water.

15% gratuity is added to price, but in a US port you will pay tax per drink you order.

Does anyone know if you get a fillable cup with the Cheers package?

[glittergal1]

do both adults in a cabin have to buy bottom less bubbles like they do cheers?

As previously stated, they charge additional tax when you are in port, it's just a few cents. If you can wait until the ship is well underway (international waters I think) then it's free, Free, FREE! Also, they can sometimes get picky about having you wait 5 minutes between purchases. Don't go blabbing this, but sometimes I get a soda for my wife on my Bottomless Bubbles card. Go to a different server or just wait a few minutes.

In a US port you are charged the sales tax.

 

The bottles of water are capped and closed.

 

Not everyone in the cabin is required to buy the Bottomless Bubbles package.

 

The cup can be purchased separately. I carry a 30oz Yeti style cup and go to the same bar for refills, tip them every time and get the cup filled to the top.

Which is a lot better than how it used to be. When they only had the soda package they’d charge tax on the whole amount if you bought it at port.

No, the last 2 cruises I got BB and wife did not. Also any soda I got in US Port I was charged tax on the value of the individual drink. Galveston, Key West and Long Beach. And if I remember correctly, I think I was taxed while at anchor off of Catalina island.

I think the tax was .16 per soda we had while in St. Thomas and San Juan. Both people in the cabin do not have to purchase the BBP. When you are purchasing it online, just check off the person you want to have it.
