Non-alcoholic Wine for Those Who Don't Drink

[DwayneG]

It seems a little insensitive that NCL doesn't offer a non-alcoholic Latitudes perk option, such as sparkling grape juice, for those who just don't drink alcohol.  It's always disappointing to find the standard bottle of bubbly in my room.  Same thing if you have a problem of some sort on board, they send you a bottle to make up for it.  I see notes in the schedule every day for "Friends of Bill W" meetings, which are for Alcoholics Anonymous members.  I know some don't drink for religious reasons.  And I just make the choice not to drink, never tried something I liked.  I know you can make all sorts of menu requests for allergies and such and it would really be nice if your account could be marked as alcohol free.  I know I can send it back, but I would guess some guests would appreciate not being presented with the temptation.

Last cruise I was in The Haven and asked the pre-cruise concerge about this and, sure enough, did find alcohol-free wine in my room.  But for my next cruise I made the same request of the concierge and was told I'd need to wait and make my request to the butler when I see him.
