coordinator23 Posted March 10, 2021 #1 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Quick question - is this the “fizzy”, carbonated water, or is it the “flat” water that is offered in the 12-24 packs? Don’t want to be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted March 10, 2021 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I dont see a evian pkg. This is the only water pkg I see in my planner. Perhaps you could tell us where you see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONECRUISER Posted March 10, 2021 #3 Share Posted March 10, 2021 (edited) Yeah, maybe no more Evian package...which I'd always got. Not a Dasani Fan, tastes like someone dropped a Nickle in it Edited March 10, 2021 by ONECRUISER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t want to be disappointed. The Evian package was the big 1 liter bottles of still water. The fizzy water the ships carried was San Pelligrino. I hope they have not switched to Dasani, that is just filtered water from a public water source. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, couple months ago say that Royal planner only had smaller half liter Evian bottles to buy in a Case. Now, looks like dont even have those just Dasani. Checked 6 Bookings on 3 ships so far only Dasani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coordinator23 Posted March 10, 2021 Author #9 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Don’t want Dasani water flat or sparkling. I knew people on here would be able to answer my questions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted March 10, 2021 #10 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I picked up a 12-pack for $10 for my next two cruises. That's a lot better than lugging a case around the ship until the rooms are ready since you're not allowed to check a case of water anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine3601 Posted March 10, 2021 #11 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Last year there was a talk that RCL would switch to Dasani water as their cans are better for the environment than the plastic bottles such as Evian. I haven't even looked at water packages as I usually grab our free bottles of water from the casino and stock up our fridge in the cabin with them. I agree, I find Dasani water in the cans - Gross and it does taste like a nickel! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always buy a water package as I drink tons of water and don't care for the tap water onboard at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been using my 12 count for 17.9oz Bottles of Soda Pop, hold more then 12 pack cans. Been carrying Pop onto Royal Ships for Decades.

We used to buy the evian pkg until we learned as a casino prime member we got free bottled water. I would take about 6 or 8 of them to the cabin everyday as we both drink lots of water too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coralc Posted March 11, 2021 #17 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It must be a water district/source thing. I think Evian tastes like sweat. I don't dislike Dasani. But I wouldn't really want any water out of cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It tasted like it came from a French sewer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted March 11, 2021 #19 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) I think we are all used to the background taste of our own water supply/source. I should have explained that better. So all of these waters taste different to us, depending on what we are used to. Our tap water here is outstanding, comes from the Sierras, mountain snow, all that. There is a large city nearby on a different water utility. Their water comes from the Delta, underground aquifers, other sources. It tastes like swamp water to me! But of course the residents there are used to it. It is one of those subjective things. Edited March 11, 2021 by Coralc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
