Seahawkie Posted May 21, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2018 The title sort of said it all. We have a couple of teenagers and would like to know if the soda packages typically go on sale a few times a year? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorben-Hendrik Posted May 21, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Never goes on sale.....get it before the price goes up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katiel53 Posted May 21, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2018 The price of $8.50 per day as shown on the Cruise Planner, is, I guess, a sale price as last July when we were onboard the Allure, and my son and his family decided to get the soda package, it was $9.50 a day. Both, of course, are plus 18% gratuity. I never realized it was higher when onboard, although, in hindsight, I should have, as the Refreshment and Alcohol packages are less expensive if purchased before boarding than onboard.

Capt_BJ Posted May 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2018 perhaps you are already aware .... BUT prices for these packages are managed ship by ship and cruise to cruise. You should NOT look for a 'fleet wide announcement' ..... Sad to say you need to log in and check the details for YOUR cruise, every day .... the one good thing here (unless RCL has changed and screwed it up):: When you see a price you like, buy .... BUT continue checking ..... IF the price goes down you can CANCEL your earlier purchase and re-buy (up to 2 weeks b4 or something like that....) but most important IMO is knowing you must check YOUR trip ........... *********************** works this way for 'delux' aka booze pkg anyway ...... they begin to discount the booze pkg when the computers say the 'pre purchase' is less than expected ...... in the same way that they only offer drink cards on the ships after the cruise is half over and the booze buying is less that the models predicted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_BJ Posted May 21, 2018 #8 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I was going to add that the soda package IS more stable .... but IMO IS worth watching I'm assuming you are NOT saying the soda pkg CAN NOT CHANGE +++++++++++++++++ editorial: half way thru our OASIS Nov cruise, the Freestyle machines had few choices left available. FEW Stayed that way thru the rest of the trip. Of course with a package, you could go to any bar and get soda there ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATC cruiser Posted May 21, 2018 #9 Share Posted May 21, 2018 If your looking to get an internet package, they have a deal where you can get a soda package and internet for 1 device for $19 a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandgeezer Posted May 21, 2018 #10 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Apparently sales are always strong so why would they have it on sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARandomTraveler Posted May 22, 2018 #12 Share Posted May 22, 2018 I’ve never seen it go on sale, but before they raised the prices 3 years ago, it was $6.50 for adults and $4.50 for kids. Who knows when the next increase will be, but I’d be willing to bet it becomes $10.50. Don’t bother waiting for a sale on the soda only package. It has never happened.

No, that's not a sale. It's a promotion for that cabin category that has existed for several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawkie Posted May 22, 2018 Author #15 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Thank you all so much for your replies. I will go ahead and purchase the soda package for the kids now, if the price goes down then I'll cancel but at least for now I know it's $8.50/day. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
