BBMacLaird Posted October 5, 2018 #26 Share Posted October 5, 2018 A very comprehensive answer HGC, just a couple of points I would add.All suites come with 245 minutes of internet per person which can be traded for $150 off of an internet package. However this replaces any LCV internet allowance you may have. A CO suite also comes with $300 OBC per passenger, what I don’t know, but would also like to know, is if this can be used to purchase a package. Sent from my iPad using Forums Hi Rocca, Yes, your OBC can be applied to the purchase of our Experience More Packages. But they must be purchased once aboard since we do not yet offer the ability to pre-book using OBC for anything except Shore Excursions. And it is true that the longer the voyage the better the savings realized; especially for non-suite guests that don't receive the perks that come with suites, eg wifi, laundry, specialty dining, etc. https://www.azamaraclubcruises.com/booked-guests/onboard-packages/experience-more-packages 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have already booked a shore excursion using our OBC so we would have to cancel and take a chance of booking it onboard, something to think about [emoji16] Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what Seabourn did with our OBC. Our only other AZ cruise was the second one Journey ever made and AZ was organized a little differently then.

lovecruzin Posted October 5, 2018 #29 Share Posted October 5, 2018 This is a great thread. I hadn't researched or considered this package for our upcoming TA on Pursuit. We are planning to purchase the UBP and even with the Discoverer + perks, the pkg seems to be a good value. Especially since we can use OBC to purchase, definitely worth another look. Thanks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MekesMom Posted October 6, 2018 #30 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I'd buy an experience more package if they offered pricing for solo guests. They're losing money because I won't be buying internet or laundry or anything else separately. I'm booked on two more Azamara cruises that offered fares without 100% single supplement but I don't see many in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BerlinCruisers Posted November 22, 2022 #32 Share Posted November 22, 2022 We are planning on buying the Essentials Package for our 16 nights cruise as it seems to be a very good deal. What I could not find out on this thread is, whether it is possible or not to upgrade the included premium to the ultimate beverage package for one or two persons by just paying the difference (i.e. 7$ per person/day)? Can anyone share his or her experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were an Le to upgrade to the Ultimate drink package at the bar by paying the difference less our loyalty discount. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tryan70 Posted November 30, 2022 #35 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Anyone has success buying one of these packages on line? I've made several attempts using several different browsers without success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tryan70 Posted November 30, 2022 #37 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Actually my TA said she couldn't do it, can only be done directly. Tried with Google Chrome and form went through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

achirodoc Posted December 5, 2022 #39 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Are the coffee drinks at Mosaic still included with the Ultimate package? That’s the best part of the package for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crzrr Posted December 5, 2022 #40 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Coffee drinks in Mosaic are free to all - no package required. If you want something like Bailey's to add to your coffee, then you will need the package. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susancasteel Posted January 15, 2023 #45 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Hi, I think it was from Mackdogmolly about the topic of having the essentials package and upgrading to Ultimate, I was trying to understand were you saying you were able to upgrade the drink package at the bar? If so you just go in on your first day and upgrade for all the days and just pay the difference I think $7 a day ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivi The premium package is $16.95 per day and the Ultimate is $23.95 per day. But if you already have the Premium (like through a promotion), you can upgrade to the Ultimate by paying the difference in price 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
