jalves Posted October 25, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I suspect it depends on what is available at the port where they re-provision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HappyTexan44 Posted October 25, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Speaking of which ... how does the tap water taste? I've heard it is very heavily filtered and drinkable. Them saying it is drinkable doesn't mean much to me, since They say that about Orlando's swamp water so drinkable can just mean "It probably won't harm you". But the heavy filtering makes me think maybe it truly is drinkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI - I have tasty well water at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, water taste is very subjective, I am sure others have no issue drinking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare HappyTexan44 Posted October 25, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I am a bit of a water snob, but not about water brands. I find most tap water undrinkable, but random jugs of reverse osmosis water are fine, and I have an RO unit at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jalves Posted October 26, 2022 #9 Share Posted October 26, 2022 We have no problem drinking the tap water on board. It's produced by the same method as the bottled/canned waters you buy at home - reverse osmosis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rudeney Posted October 27, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Earlier this month, they were serving water in typical plastic bottles. I don't recall the brand, but I don't think it was one I recognized. The tap water tasted fine to me, though we did get bottles because we had the DBP and it was convenient to grab them to take back to the room for the nightstand, on excursions, etc. BTW, to get bottled water at the bars with a beverage package, they don't even swipe your card - you just show them that it has the beverage package codes on it and they will hand you a couple of bottles. Oh, and we did the All-Access Tour where we found that the tap water is created through reverse-osmosis and the source is from drain water as well as sea water. Yes, that's right - they extract 99.9999% pure water from "used" water aboard the ship! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danish Posted October 27, 2022 #12 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Back in June it was canned water. A bit unpratical for bringing to go ashore. However, I filled up my waterbottle at the Promenade Café - I am a bit picky about drinking water, but I find this acceptable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
