oceanpark Posted July 15, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Less than two months now to our European cruise and not sure if we should upgrade the drink package or just pay as we go for better wine and premium alcohol. We have lots of ship board credit. Also does anyone know if you can get chai tea lattes on board. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJCM Posted July 15, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Wait and see how much you like the included drinks and wine. You can always pick up an upgraded liquor or wine package at any time and pay for the days remaining. The ultimate liquor package has better wines than the standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted July 15, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 15, 2023 To get better wine you would have to upgrade all the way to the top package. Or you could buy a wine package and work with the sommelier to select bottles from a much wider range – that's what I did and it was quite satisfactory.

oceanpark Posted July 15, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted July 15, 2023 As we like to drink martinis and g&t, and prefer gin that is not complimentary, can you order a higher end gin and pay the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted July 15, 2023 #6 Share Posted July 15, 2023 You pay $6 for a non included gin. Gin is included just Gordon’s not Tanqueray or Bombay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s my alternative when Chai not available. As long as a ship has Earl Grey teabags available they should be able to make it … but you may have to explain it to them 😄. I “taught” it to some bartenders last year on MSC (in YC) they had not heard of it before, and they were happy to expand their repertoire! I’m also thinking about sailing my first Azamara so am researching about what they include … or don’t include!

Ithikan Posted July 16, 2023 #9 Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) Consider my hand raised, westcoasttech 😄. I had not realized that our condition has been given a handle; I suppose we can view this board as a legit therapy for OCSRD.

oceanpark Posted July 16, 2023 Author #10 Share Posted July 16, 2023 @westcoasttech, I am not a big fan of London fog, but will survive without chai tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
