Unlimited Open Bar?

What does the term "unlimited open bar" really mean? NCL web site; when that phrase is entered in the search window gives you nothing of substance.

The unlimited open bar as a perk is also known as the Premium Beverage Package(Ultimate Beverage Package)

It means that your package will cover the first $15 of each of your drinks. Two drinks at a time. No limit. You pay the difference for anything over $15 (plus 20% grats).

Follow on question re:  Free Unlimited Bar.  

 

Why would the Premium Beverage Package be an option for the short cruises that offer the Free Unlimited Bar.  Are the beverage at the bars different?

I believe the perk for those sailings are “premium plus” packages. The premium plus beverage package is offered as a perk on the “open bar” sailings because it includes top shelf alcohol, along with bottled water, premium coffees, etc. 

 

Personally, I am more than happy with the open bar already included for those sailings and would not chose the premium plus perk. But some people are picky when it comes to the alcohol they drink. The water and premium coffees are a major plus for some people, too.
