bar1068 Posted April 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Are doubles allowed if you have the DBP? Read on here someone saying a bartender would not serve doubles, and I can't recall last times I sailed on RCI with the package if they were covered or not!! Also, is there somewhere to get current drink prices? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bead Pirate Posted April 22, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2023 The "trick" to getting a double on the beverage plan is to have them charge one shot to your diamond drink and one to your drink package. You will need to sign a zero check for the diamond pour however... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rolloman Posted April 22, 2023 #5 Share Posted April 22, 2023 II order a martini straight up versus a shot on the rocks... this assures me of a better pour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted April 22, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I have never had a problem ordering and receiving a double. YMMV. I tip well, maybe that helps. And yes, I realize that a gratuity is added to the cost of the beverage package. I usually tip extra and I don't have to worry about getting my double.

This started within last few months. On the Ovation now, and some print a zero receipt to sign and some don’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been on Freedom, Odyssey, Wonder and Grandeur twice in the last two months and have never had a bartender print a receipt. However, it wouldn’t surprise me if there are different policies on each ship concerning printing receipts for free drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange jeep Posted April 23, 2023 #10 Share Posted April 23, 2023 RC is measuring their pours now, at least on Oasis…no extra pouring to drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
