mafig Posted December 1, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Can you use your 3 drink coupons in the MDR on Reflection? It might make a difference if we book a Resident rate or go with the drink package. We'll be off the ship more than usual for this itinerary, but it's still nice to a cocktail at lunch or specialty coffee and water. I know people say you can bring a drink with you, but I really don't want to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My vote would be to go for the drink package which gives you more flexibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are two different issues and questions. I agree with you that the drink package vs. the resident rate is a better choice as he could not use the three rink coupons at lunch.

mafig Posted December 2, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) Thank you for your responses. Yes, I was referring to picking the drink package vs. the resident rate (where I would use the drink coupons.....solely.)

If only Posted December 2, 2018 #7 Share Posted December 2, 2018 (edited) On the Reflection there are no drink coupons, there are 3 drinks on your sea pass card, that you get each day from the Elite menu at most bars.

Yes, I know. Sorry for the confusion. When I wrote drink coupons, I did mean the 3 drinks on my sea pass card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duanerice1 Posted December 2, 2018 #10 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Between having 3 drinks on our cards and the recent free drinks in the casino on sea days (I know, not all sailings) we may never have to get a beverage package again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britpamtany1205 Posted December 29, 2018 #15 Share Posted December 29, 2018 P.S. they did go back to unlimited drinks in sky lounge (5:00 - 7:00pm) and three drinks at any bar/lounge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The unlimited cocktails in the Sky Lounge and the three drinks at any bar/lounge is a significant change. Are you sure? In the past when Celebrity used coupons, they had to be used in the Sky Lounge and it was not unlimited. One coupon for each drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britpamtany1205 Posted December 29, 2018 #19 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Yes I’m quite certain.....DW and I could’ve stayed in sky lounge from 5:00-7:00 and drink til our hearts content ‘OR’ go to a bar/lounge and receive 3 drinks between said hours. Now if you’re asking can we begin drinking in sky lounge ‘and then go to a bar/lounge’, that I can’t answer but I’d assume that answer would be no. Celebrity’s policy seems to be a moving target, prior to our cruise Celebrity had switched to a 3 drink max every/any where (bar/lounge/restaurants)and we had been looking forward to having wine with our dinner in the MDR without having to carry our glass down with us from sky lounge. We do not do the drink package or take it as a perk. We are not big drinkers so it’s no benefit to us, however an elite perk drink or two at dinner/breakfast works fine for us.

helen haywood Posted December 29, 2018 #20 Share Posted December 29, 2018 During the brief hiatus when X was only allowing 3 drinks in the Sky Lounge during the Captain's Club Happy Hour, you had to show your card for each drink. If they have now changed back to unlimited drinks in the Sky Lounge during the 5-7 hour they would not be swiping your card thus I fail to see how your 3 "coupon" loaded onto your SeaPass card wouldn't still be good elsewhere. I mean, how would the system know that I was in the Sky Lounge from 5-6 (when my card was never processed) and then joined friends at another bar from 6-7 using the coupons?

Thank you for the follow up. That should make the people who drink more than 3 drinks between 5-7 PM very happy. This change if fleetwide will remove any reason to complain. 27 minutes ago, helen haywood said: During the brief hiatus when X was only allowing 3 drinks in the Sky Lounge during the Captain's Club Happy Hour, you had to show your card for each drink.

Rare Ken the cruiser Posted January 10, 2019 #22 Share Posted January 10, 2019 (edited) If I might ask as we just made Elite status, is that 3 drinks per day during the 5-7 pm Happy Hour at any bar or 3 drinks total for the cruise? Also, as my DW doesn't drink and I can only handle 2 glasses of wine max a night, can we get free bottles of water at any bar during those hours to reap the rewards of the 3 drink per person limit?

cruiserchuck Posted January 10, 2019 #23 Share Posted January 10, 2019 It is 3 drinks per person per day, starting on day two. In the past, I was able to get bottled water with the coupons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzmund Posted January 10, 2019 #24 Share Posted January 10, 2019 We just finished a cruise on the Silhouette (1/3) and at the Elite Happy Hour in the Sky Lounge the waiters did not swipe nor even look at our Sea Pass. There was no limit to the number of drinks you could have during happy hour. We never tried to use the three free drinks in the DR as we never ate before 7:30.

Rare Ken the cruiser Posted January 10, 2019 #25 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Thanks! This is great news, especially when we book a transoceanic cruise or a balcony cabin on a 29 day B2B cruise, like we just did, and took the free gratuities and $300 OBC promo package !! I feel like breaking into a happy dance ... 🕺🕺🕺 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
