You can get a martini with the classic. It is one made will well spirits and in a smaller glass. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have missed that. There were not only vouchers/coupons for drinks but also for laundry, dry cleaning, pressing, gelato etc. The coupons were on sheets and you had to cut out the individual vouchers. The ones for drinks were even dated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the bartender make it with kettle one .He tried to talk us into the beverage package,(BCC cruise )but told him that we were elite plus and would be doing the happy hour menu going forward. We tipped him well. The next night at happy hour he made our dirty martinis with kettle one and every night after. And never charge us extra. We tipped them all very well through out the cruise because our drinks were all free so why not !! You were lucky😉. We did the same 1st night paid for G a T at Martini Bar and had Hendricks gin…..tipped well. Next evening HH but we were given Beefeater offered to pay difference but was told cannot be done. Also that if they gave us anything other than drinks available on HH menu they would be sacked. A few colleagues across the fleet had been sacked for doing this.

But none of 1 - 4 apply for me and I highly doubt that the casino would trade free drink coupons for casino credits. We have cruised 30 times on Celebrity and six times in the last two years, so just saying I've never seen the coupons for drinks, not important, enjoy your cruises!

miched Posted August 25, 2023 #65 Share Posted August 25, 2023 I wouldn't be surprised if they changed the HH to BOGO from the selected menu with a max of doing it twice between 5 and 7. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand since he is my cabin mate, he is also eligible for the elite HH drinks. Is this correct? Ty in advance. Just keep going to the same bar/waiter and tip well, they will take care of you can give you even the top shelf stuff when a manger isn't watching.

Your Seapass is labeled with your Captain's Club status. Just give it to the bartender. You are actually not limited to only the drink items on the list. Bartenders will make pretty much any drink using the listed liquors. If you are not sure - just ask if your beverage choice is covered. Beers are very limited. Wines are low end - you order by type of grape, not winery. Chardonnay, Merlot etc. Different bars often pour wine from different wineries Would I be able to get a simple frozen drink (e.g., Pina Colada, Strawberry Daiquiri) or does it depend on the bartender and/or whether I tip them?

I understand 100% what you were asking. I cannot, nor do I think anyone else can, say for certain that if you establish a relationship with a specific bartender and tip well that you will receive something that is not on the Happy Hour menu.

bikerunner Posted October 25, 2023 #74 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Any off menu from the Captains Club Cocktail menu, might be made, it really depends on bartender and how much they bend the rules. Will they, at times and then there might be times they don't. What one person's experience in getting drinks can be totally different from another.

the mistral wind Posted June 12 #75 Share Posted June 12 We were on the constellation ship 2023. We had elite happy hour from 5 to 7. At mostly all bars .you can ask for elite menu. On our trip we had martinis both applehtini and regular was included. I imagine not premium brand but what was most available to bar tender the drinks were very good. Wine was good also. You can have mist well drinks with soda znd juice mixers cosmo also. They were very accommodating and you can order soda cokes to take or bottle water to take during this time. Bar tenders and servers were great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
