lisa928 Posted October 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Planning for first time in the Haven. We have the drink package but most of the time just drink soda. Can I ask the butler to keep cans of soda in the fridge? Not worth it if I have to pay for each can, just convenient for us if it is possible.

valleyvillage Posted October 15, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2022 It depends on which suite. Regular Haven, there would be a charge. Owner's Suite you get three bottles of booze and unlimited mixers, in cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexddd Posted October 16, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 16, 2022 On Prima in Haven bar they had cans to mix in with drinks. One morning I asked at breakfast in Haven restaurant for Coke Zero, they asked if fountain or can, I said can, they said that is not covered under plan and extra so they must have a fountain at least in the restaurant area. Never saw one in Haven bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbenjamin Posted October 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 16, 2022 (edited) A week ago on the Breakaway we got cans of soda from the Haven bar on several occasions. Edited October 16, 2022 by pbenjamin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
complawyer Posted October 16, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 16, 2022 you can get cans of soda, but they're usually about $3.00 per can. that times, however, i have been fortunate enough to have a butler that will bring me the cans at no charge. since im addicted to pepsi, i dont mind the price, but by the glass its free 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sailing12Away Posted October 16, 2022 #7 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Butler will give you pitchers of anything you want for your room. As for cans, they are technically not covered unless you're in an Owners Suite or Garden Villa. Having said that, if you ask nice enough at the Haven bar and don't make a habit of it, or act as though it's something you're entitled to - the bartenders usually have no problem giving you 1-2 cans to take away to your room. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be clear, there was no charge. My wife likes to drink a soda in the evening and I would just walk up the bar and ask for one. Below the bar there is a fridge with the popular items like Coke and Diet Coke. They would go back around the corner to a cabinet for more obscure things like Diet Sprite, which weren't refrigerated. At one point, while sitting at the bar, I mentioned that my wife was suffering from a bad case of motion sickness (remnants of Ian). The bartender, Agnello, pulled out a can of ginger ale and a green apple and sent me on my way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a good tip I was wondering how to get soda in my suite with no extra charge . A pitcher brilliant 😀. Now maybe I can ask for a pitcher of MOËT 🥳lol prob won’t work . We have the PP. beverage package and staying in forward HG it’s a long walk to haven bar . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our most recent trip on the Joy we were in an HH cabin outside of the Haven on deck 15. We had asked one night at the bar when they were closing up if it was possible to get a Coke to bring back to the room, they said no problem. The rest of the trip when we were closing out the bar they would just ask "A Coke for the road?". But again, it's not something they have to do. Might just be because we spent so much time there and we did definitely have the drink package. The ship was losing a lot more money on us in booze than on that $3 can of Coke.

I asked for a can of soda at the bar, handed my key card to the bartender, which he waved away. I got the same result from other Haven bartenders. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jetswdo Posted October 27, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Ok, I get the system! I will stop by the Haven pool and Haven bar to see if I can get a complimentary can of diet Sprite, here and there, to bring back to room fridge, But no way am I willing to pay $3.50 a can. I will manage with water and crystal light packets. Thanks for all the tips. Very helpful. Anita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbrown84 Posted October 27, 2022 #18 Share Posted October 27, 2022 If you happened to have the casino drink card, you can get cans of soda at the casino bar, as well as specialty coffee and water (including Pellegrino) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty-sail Posted October 27, 2022 #19 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Soda in cans is available throughout the ship and are stocked in your room fridge. However, if you open one of the cans in your room fridge, it will cost you $3-$4. per can. Items in your fridge are not covered under the 'drink package'.

I always thought that only ordering from the Bar is covered on the drink package. Thank goodness that NCL now offers Coke products instead of Pepsi. Nothing against Pepsi, but a "Rum and Pepsi" just doesn't sound right. Edited October 27, 2022 by kitty-sail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought that only ordering from the Bar is covered on the drink package. The pitcher of soda/lemonade/sweet tea won't cost anything extra (in my experience). The delivery of alcohol beverages will be at a charge 99% of the time even though the beverage would be covered if you walked to the bar yourself and ordered it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No charges ... complimentary in the room .... at the pool ... and the American Diner and even at a bar where we asked for a can because the fountain Coke wasn't tasting right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
