DrProfessor Posted May 15, 2023 #51 Share Posted May 15, 2023 We got one last weekend (May 5th, 2023) for booking Next Cruise on the first day. If anyone is really wondering, it was a bottle of Blanc De Blancs Duc De Valmer Brut. We were on Independence, so maybe they are phasing it out or it is different from ship to ship? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feeloftheocean Posted May 15, 2023 #52 Share Posted May 15, 2023 If anyone knows how to have free bottles of Veuve Clicquot or Moët et Chandon (real) champagne randomly delivered to our stateroom on our upcoming cruise, please share. 🍾 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank808 Posted September 19, 2023 #55 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Just booked 7 cruises yesterday on boarding Brilliance of the Seas. Got 7 bottles of Vigne Dei Conte Extra Dry Spumante for bookings. Next cruise asked if I wanted them now or they could deliver it. I said delivered of course. Get to enjoy it with MDR dinner mates for this cruise and on the TP to Honolulu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just received a bottle on the Independence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what they give out. But, I'm sure it won't stop anyone from booking a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I choose 3 bottles of champagne and I get them. Luck has nothing to do with it. Once over 525 points, you get 3 gifts for a 7 night cruise. we are Diamond Plus. What should we Expect ?

frank808 Posted October 5, 2023 #66 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Just got off Brilliance B2B Alaska and TP cruise to Hawaii. Booked onboard first day and made 7 bookings. Got 7 bottles of Dry Moscato delivered to cabin, one for each booking. Was told that all bookings on the first day get a bottle. Also won $250 in drawing but gave it all back plus more over the next 17 nights. Have never won the $250 OBC before so figured I would give lady luck a try. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank808 Posted October 5, 2023 #67 Share Posted October 5, 2023 7 bottles of Extra Dry Spumante, not Moscato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruiselvr04 Posted October 5, 2023 #68 Share Posted October 5, 2023 It does vary ship to ship. We booked a cruise first day on Radiance in Alaska. No bubbly. On the topic, has anyone ever won the free OBC they supposedly have a drawing for if you book the first 3 days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted October 5, 2023 #69 Share Posted October 5, 2023 The incentives are reduced deposit and OBC, depending on catagory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wondered about this. Then, on our Oasis cruise last week got a call that we had won the $250 non-refundable OBC. Nice. Cashed it out in the casino. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viajera7 Posted October 16, 2023 #74 Share Posted October 16, 2023 I was on the Rhapsody of the Seas in June and booked the Liberty OTS cruise that just finished on October 14. The manager on the Rhapsody told me that RCI was not doing this anymore. I went to Next Cruise on the Liberty OTS on the first day October 5th. They had signs offering the free bottle for booking on the first day. I was going to book a cruise that had Israel but as a solo traveler paying double it was not the right price for me at the moment and I decided to wait. You know what happened the following day😔.
