joknowsbows Posted January 8, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Hello, Just curious if anyone has cruised this year and has found out whether Carnival has made the official switch to Pepsi? We sale on January 18 on the Carnival Sensation and would like to know. If they haven't made the switch yet it would save us from bringing 12 packs onboard. Thanks!

Rare 1025cruise Posted January 8, 2020 #4 Share Posted January 8, 2020 You might want to ask on the Carnival board. And yes, they are switching over to Pepsi. As the supplies of Coke are used Pepsi will be showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host Kat Posted January 8, 2020 #5 Share Posted January 8, 2020 @joknowsbows Howdy! Thank you for your new thread on the Ask a Cruise Question forum that is for general questions about cruising. Since your thread topic concerns a specific cruise line, I have moved your thread to the Carnival Cruise Lines forum where it will be on-topic. The majority of your fellow Cruise Critic members that have sailed or will be sailing Carnival frequent that forum. I sincerely hope this will be satisfactory and glad to have you aboard Cruise Critic! Happy sails, Host Kat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also called Carnival to confirm, but they acted like they didn't know. 🙂 Here's to hoping they haven't ran out of Coke yet. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably won't know until you get onboard. You can try bumping this thread right before your cruise and maybe you'll get lucky and someone from the previous cruise will let you know what they saw. But if Coke is your preference, I'd say better safe than sorry, take a 12-pack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplelife Posted January 8, 2020 #9 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I'd like to know about Ecstasy. We are sailing Feb 29, so anyone who sails earlier in the month, please let me know if they have made the switch. I am trying to decide whether to buy Bottomless Bubbles or not.

I did just read today confirmation that it will still be served from those home ports after the switch to Pepsi. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Cruiser Posted January 8, 2020 #12 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Our family is excited for the change to Pepsi products. We have carried on 12 packs numerous times, but won't have to do that anymore. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume by then it will be all Pepsi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up until recently, I didn't realize how many generic variants of Dr. Pepper there were out there. Walmart sells Dr. Thunder, Aldi sells Dr. Dazzle, 😆 and Dollar General sells Dr. Topper. I'm sure there's more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheels87 Posted January 8, 2020 #18 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I am currently on the Dream and they still have Coke products. I did see a gentleman ask for a club soda only to be told they were completely out of club soda at that bar as they were using up all their stores before switching to Pepsi products. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4lambert Posted January 9, 2020 #20 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Carnival is expected to change over from Coke to Pepsi ship by ship. All ships will be fitted with Pepsi products by the spring of 2020. Disney Cruise Line should use Pepsi products in lieu of Coke products in the future.

I know DP is its own brand but DP is disturbed by Pepsi in Fl so I was hoping it would be on ships out of Fl. It’s sad since Pepsi does not have a alternative.

Back to carrying on again I wonder why they only stock it out of two ports considering it's not Coke or Pepsi. And why those two ports in particular? Dr. Pepper is very popular, I think it'd do well.

zorky12 Posted January 9, 2020 #23 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I am a equal opportunity soda drinker. I like coke and Pepsi equally. I don’t typically drink alcohol but can put a few dews away like a beer drinker drinking beer 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
