Relax Cruiser Posted April 3, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2019 For those of you who are teetotalers and are latitude members do NCL supplement the welcome aboard alcoholic bottle in your stateroom to something non alcoholic if you don’t drink at all? How do you go about doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwcruiselover Posted April 3, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I’m also a teetotaler, and I have never been able to switch the complimentary wine to something without alcohol. I just find someone to give the wine to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think is bad at all, is not Dom Perignon but is still decent. In fact, i believe they changed the brand. I prefer prosecco but hey i earned it as a Platinum plus member :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave mine to the young newlyweds in the cabin next door last year. I don't have high hopes for any sparkling wine onboard this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know on NCL's website they list "The Captains choice - Non Alcoholic Wine" maybe check ahead with someone like the Access Desk, or your TA?? Once on board, probably donate to a grateful traveler, even take it to your M&G as a door prize if you are attending one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted April 3, 2019 #12 Share Posted April 3, 2019 It's been the same bubbling wine for the last 3 or 4 years - it's not bad when chilled & mixed in with OJ. If you take it to the dining room, the server will even exchange a cold one for your unopened one & bring glasses. We had at least 5 or 6 bottles donated as door prizes at one of the CC Meet & Mingle last year. Only first-time NCL cruisers took it, LOL - leaving it in the stateroom unopened or giving it to the RS is just recycling it free for NCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We usually take it to the M&G so people can have mimosas if they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyAtSea Posted April 4, 2019 #17 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I have been on several cruises where I just took the wine or champagne to a bar (any bar) and they swapped me for a few cans of Pepsi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
