willyt25 Posted September 30, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Reading the terms and conditions of the Premier Coffee and Soda package and noticed this gem. Excludes beverages offered via vending machines, but includes Coke Freestyle machines where available (coming soon). Anyone know if the Enchanted Princess will have the Freestyle machines would love to have some Coke Zero available outside of the can, (a 43 year old kid can dream). The same bullet point was listed on the classic soda package but not on the Premier Beverage package (in fact it states that it is not for use on any self serve machines, but I am assuming that is in regards to the self serve wine machines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JF - retired RRT Posted September 30, 2021 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2021 This has been coming up every so often on CC for at least 2 years. I think it's been "coming soon" for so long they've forgotten it's in the small print. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted September 30, 2021 #3 Share Posted September 30, 2021 First Enchanted sailing is scheduled in November. Ask then. Seems strange that the Premier Coffee & Soda Package has the wording just as you stated, but the Premier Beverage Package latest terms which additionally includes alcoholic beverages does not mention the freestyle machines, just excludes all vending machines. I would be surprised if Princess installed these machines during the covid era, but I have been surprised many times before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohhh how I wish. And while I am wishing let me wish for a diet caffeine-free soft drink to be included as well! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CineGraphic Posted September 30, 2021 #5 Share Posted September 30, 2021 I wouldn't hold your breath while waiting for freestyle machines to be installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peckishpixie Posted October 5, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 5, 2021 No one at princess has heard anything about the freestyle machines being added. Are you sure you saw coming soon on Princess and not another cruise line? RC has it on all their ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogdoc2002 Posted October 6, 2021 #8 Share Posted October 6, 2021 That was in the fine print on our last cruise, December 2019 Sky Princess sailings. I was really looking forward to them, but as skynight said, I would be really surprised if they installed them in the COVID era (although would LOVE it for our cruises this December...)
