teamflames Posted July 10, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hi all, we have booked our first Azamara cruise for Mar 19. We are trying to determine whether to rebook to the new promotion. For $250 we would lose 100obc but gain premium beverage package, Internet, 500 shore credit, 200 spa credit. Overall it looks worthwhile to us. Does anyone know if there are any limitations to the shore and spa credits (eg minimum spend etc?) Also, does the premium drinks package include better wines? (Not clear on the website) Also does it include any specialty coffee or sparkling waters? Would we be allowed to upgrade to ubp for the price difference? Many thanks Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riocca Posted July 10, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 10, 2018 This is what’s included on the Premium Package: The upgraded wines are on the Ultimate Package as are the Nespresso coffees. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurieb Posted July 10, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 10, 2018 It is a good trade off if you have only 100.00 OBC currently; do be aware that you may have to cancel and rebook, which would incur a cancellation fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamflames Posted July 10, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Thanks for your responses, I did not know coffee was included (the cruise critic review suggests they have a cost). Surely that coffee would be better than Nespresso? My obc will reduce from 300 to 200. So could still use that towards specialty restaurants. What water options will be available under premium drink package? My TA has mentioned a cancellation fee, have never paid one before. Sounds like the premium package gives you some digestives and better options on beer and spirits, nothing on wine or non alcoholic. Am seriously considering it.

hiccups Posted July 10, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Would we be allowed to upgrade to ubp for the price difference? Many thanks Sent from my iPad using Forums You are not able to upgrade to the UBP; you'd have to buy the package that includes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamflames Posted July 10, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted July 10, 2018 You are not able to upgrade to the UBP; you'd have to buy the package that includes it. When you say package that includes it, is there another promotion different to the one I am seeing? Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bonnie, Yes I am looking at changing my booking to include the seasonal promotion. Do you also have the promotion with this indulgence package as an option? If not is it true that if I take the seasonal promotion I cannot upgrade the premium drinks package for the difference? Can you confirm whether there are any limitations to the spa and shore credits? Eg minimum spends etc Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eg minimum spends etc Sent from my iPad using Forums You can get the Indulgence Package, which includes the UBP, if you book a balcony or suite on one of the cruises included in the promotion. Based on your initial post, it sounds as though you're in an interior or OV and are eligible for the Enjoyment Package. When I asked Bonnie previously if we purchased the Enjoyment Package and were then able to pay the difference to upgrade to the UBP, she said that was not an option. I don't know if that would be different under this promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
