I do not know why but I love Diet Pepsi and hate Diet Coke. On a cruise though I only drink soda to calm an upset stomach so it won't matter to me much. So funny! - I'm the exact same ... love love love Coke ..... will never drink Pepsi but for the diet ones it's always Pepsi over Coke. This is a welcome change for us - though bummer about them not having Coke Zero as that is my husband's fave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would venture to say they will - Coke Zero is incredibly popular and from what I've found, all the other lines that carry Coke products have Coke Zero on board. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait to get on a ship Yesterday I told my husband I had the 2nd best piece of news about our upcoming cruise (the best piece of news would be an upgrade), which was the change in testing mandates. Today I got to tell him the 3rd best piece of news, which is Coke products on board. If they have Coke Zero I will be extra happy, but I'm happy enough with Diet Coke. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She HATES Pepsi. On our last cruise, she drank water rather than touch it. She was thrilled yesterday when I told her about the change. I don't drink much soda on cruises, actually. For me, it's cocktails, wine, champagne, some juice, and water. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope they have Diet Coke. So many people try to give you Coke Zero when you order Diet Coke and it is not the same. Hopefully they will have both. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went to Jamaica last Oct & everytime I asked for a diet coke they gave me coke zero. It is definitely not the same. Now I love Captain & coke. I switched to drinking Captain & coke zero & I love it. But I can't drink it with diet coke. 🤷♀️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiserbear55 Posted August 11, 2022 #63 Share Posted August 11, 2022 NCL recently raised the price of the soda package from $7.95 a day to $9.95 a day plus 20% gratuity. ( From $66.78 to $83.58 per week on a seven day cruise.) How long before some bean-counter in corporate puts two and two together and realizes Coke outsells Pepsi? And then starts thinking that it must be a premium product so NCL should be charging more for the soda package. As Del Rio said this week, onboard spending is their biggest profit center. Batten down your wallets, the price increase is coming! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Divide $84 by 3, that's 28 cokes (or pepsis) before you start to come out ahead on the soda package. 4 cokes a day. 5, before the package really starts to make sense. Seems like 90% of the parents are really better off just letting their kids buy Cokes a la carte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruiseny4life Posted August 11, 2022 #71 Share Posted August 11, 2022 I think this is the most definitive proof I'll get before NCL makes an announcement. Yesterday the beverage package description stated Pepsi. Today, it's...well, very generic. Oh, this might make me happier than wearing shorts in Le Bistro. 🙂 Source: https://www.ncl.com/onboard-packages/beverage-packages 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be interesting, do you think they will have Sprite and Fanta now, as well or something else as they've moved to Cola? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when you factor in just how ridiculously small they are. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAPilot Posted August 11, 2022 #75 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Don’t drink soda but they had cans of Coke Zero on the Epic a few weeks ago and didn’t seem to charge extra for cans vs the soda gun. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
