“Free” drink package on ncl

[Keltag]

Hi we got the free drink drink package included in our cruise package. Does this include soda and canned/bottled beer as well? 

[BirdTravels]

Yes. It pays for the first $15 of each drink. You pay for the difference over $15 + 20% gratuity on the difference. 

[Liljo22]

Yes it does.  I don’t think there are any beers that are more than $15.  Most are around $9 so you are good to go there.  It does not include specialty coffees.

[Keltag]

Does it include Gatorade type drinks?

Google for the win, be sure and check the "exclusions" in the fine print at the bottom.

On this topic.  We are bringing my 20 year old daughter with us on an upcoming cruise and one of our perks is the "free" drink package.  it's my understanding that everyone in the cabin gets this, but my daughter is underage.   Does she get some sort of modified package instead where she'll get soda and bottled water only?  Or is she just ineligible?  I want to know if I would then need to purchase a soda package for her

She will be ineligible since she is under age per the cruiseline. It will only be for those that are 21 and over. I don't believe she gets a "modified package" at all.

Thanks for this.  I'll look into the soda package for her then.

Your daughter doesn't get anything.   The drink package perk is for guests 1 and 2 only, not everyone in the cabin.

Also it's just for the first two people in the cabin, the third and or fourth person do not get beverage or dining package without paying for it

Only the first 2 in the cabin get the beverage package, if she was the #2 passenger she’d get the soda package. You can sign a waiver so she can order beer and wine, to be paid for oop.

I brought my mom and my 24 year old daughter and did not have to purchase a package (alcohol or soda) for her.

Thanks...now if I can stomach it in diet pepsi....they should let us bring Coke on board since they do not have it.

If you take the free drink pkg for guests 1 and 2, do you have to purchase for the rest of the people in the cabin?
