poocher Posted July 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 4, 2022 In the minority here. I don’t like the souvenir cups. Big & bulky from the outside, holds very little drink (I get it, that’s the insulation). I find it a pain to carry around and it doesn’t fit my hands well. After my first try, don’t think I’ve ever used one on any other cruise. Those get passed to the grands. It needs a handle!!’ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONECRUISER Posted July 4, 2022 #4 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Miss the Old Cups from yrs ago that held Hot + Cold and didnt leak when tipped 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARandomTraveler Posted July 4, 2022 #5 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Those new cups look ugly. I don't particularly care though, we leave them on the ship when we're done with them, as they're not something we're gonna use at home. I bring a water bottle carrier with a strap to carry the cup around with me. I used it more for water than I did for soda, and I put ice in it with whatever I'm drinking, so even though I like the original cups better, I'll be ok with these new uglier, non-insulated ones.

StephPS79 Posted July 4, 2022 #6 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Not sure how much insulating those insulated cups did for me anyway. As long as I can get the machine to work, I'm good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project-College Posted July 5, 2022 Author #7 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Sorry all: I wasn't really asking opinions on the cups (that's being covered in another thread) but was asking ANY people currently, or with the last few week, on Oasis..... WHICH CUP DID YOU GET? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PigsCanFly Posted July 5, 2022 #8 Share Posted July 5, 2022 We were on a b2b on Oasis last month and got the 2nd cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roybthered Posted July 5, 2022 #9 Share Posted July 5, 2022 So do the new top picture cups work on the Freestyle coke machines? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broadwaybaby123 Posted July 5, 2022 #11 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I'm a FUTURE Oasis cruiser who recently got off Anthem. We got the souvenir cups in the 2nd pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project-College Posted July 5, 2022 Author #12 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Thanks... I hope the 2nd cup will be on Oasis on 8/5! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDodger247 Posted July 5, 2022 #13 Share Posted July 5, 2022 On topic post! 😃 The Oasis sailing on 17-Jun-2022 had this souvenir cup: No sticker to fall off, worked great with the Freestyle Coke machines. It seems the switch happened the following week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chiguy67 Posted July 5, 2022 #14 Share Posted July 5, 2022 We don’t base our purchase in the type of cup, we get the refreshment package because we like like smoothies, bottled water etc. We never use the cups that come with the refreshment package anyway. I would not base a decision on the cup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planeprincess Posted July 6, 2022 #17 Share Posted July 6, 2022 June 10th sailing, traditional (second) cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JessyCruises Posted July 6, 2022 #18 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I was onboard June 5- July 1. I did not have a drink package, but did notice the cups. For the 1st couple of cruises it was the old style cup (top pic). It changed for the last cruise 6/24. As of that cruise, it has been the new ones (2nd pic).

poocher Posted July 6, 2022 #19 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Wait I’m confused? The top picture (solid colors) are the supposedly new cheap cups. The second, striped cups are the former cups. Which did you get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RisingTideRenee Posted July 7, 2022 #20 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Do I really need to lug the cup around? Or is it convenient enough to grab a soft drink from a bartender? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it convenient enough to grab a soft drink from a bartender? In case no one has said it yet - Welcome to Cruise Critic @RisingTideRenee! Yes, with even the basic "Soda Package" (and any package above that) you can get soft drinks anywhere they are served, but you will be limited to the flavors they have. If you want the full selection of soda from the Freestyle machines, you have to use the cup - or at least you need the RFID chip stuck to the bottom of it to activate the machines.
