Funnykitty31 Posted August 6, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Hello We are going on the Anthem of the Seas in March. I heard once you check in you are able to buy drink packages for only 1 of the adults in your cabin. When you purchase online you must buy it for every adult in the room. Just wondering if that is true. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twangster Posted August 6, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 6, 2019 On the ship's where I have purchased the DX on board they had a sheet of paper listing all cabin occupants and their age. On Navigator I had a 20 year old in my cabin. They first said I had to buy it for both then when I pointed out her age they double checked the sheet and validated she was under 21. Only then was I able to buy just one DX. YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare twangster Posted August 6, 2019 #5 Share Posted August 6, 2019 On Oasis when I went to buy the DX they immediately said "everyone must be by it". I said "I'm solo". They checked the sheet of paper and saw that I was solo so they allowed me to buy just one DX. When the rules first changed there were some reports that people could buy just one DX. Once the new rules were in place for a while it seemed that fewer people reported being able to buy just one DX. YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funnykitty31 Posted August 6, 2019 Author #6 Share Posted August 6, 2019 So I guess there no way around it if one of the adults doesnt drink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingn09 Posted August 6, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I am going on a b2b...question: If I buy the 10 drink card for $79, can I use the card for the next sailing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will normally allow you to buy the Refreshment package for the non-alcohol drinking guests. If you are lucky, they may let you get away with the soda package.

lmwyatt Posted August 7, 2019 #12 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I would just buy it beforehand then. You will need to call RCI to do it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year I once again pre-purchased my refreshment package and I just called RCI and bought his deluxe package yesterday for $379 for a 7 day on Harmony. I'm not sure if everyone in the room has to have some kind of package but this is our 2nd year with only husband getting deluxe and we haven't had any issues.

You won't have any issues with one getting the DX, as long as the other buys at least the refreshment package.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furloughedagain Posted August 20, 2019 #16 Share Posted August 20, 2019 When we sailed Indy last year we were able to buy a refreshment package/WiFi combo that was a pretty good deal. we don’t drink alcohol but we liked the coffees and sparkling waters. Sailing Navigator in a few months though and I don’t see that combo. They show WiFi combos with the deluxe package and with the soda package but not the refreshment package. So so what’s up? Think they’ll add it closer to sailing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
