Non-Alcoholic drink package?

[Doylestown5518]

I've stopped drinking alcohol but would like to have specialty coffees and mocktails however I don't see a drink package that this would fit into - any advice?

There is a Starbucks package, but no mocktail package.

My husband doesn't drink alcohol at all. He still gets his money's worth with the Free at Sea beverage package. He drinks mocktails and soda all day long. Mocktails cost around $6 - $8 (at least in March they did). He would have four to six glasses of coke (around $3/each) and four or five mocktails a day. Easily made up for the gratuities he paid for Free at Sea. 

Unfortunately, Starbucks is not part of the package, unless you upgrade to Premium Plus. We've never upgraded as that would not pay for itself for us. We sail in the Haven where coffee/cappuccinos/espresso//etc. are included, so that's how I get my coffee fix. If you only have one or two specialty coffees/Starbucks drinks a day, you're probably best just purchasing these out of pocket, rather than getting the Starbucks package or Premium Plus. 

 

Of course you could forgo the Free at Sea beverage package and purchase the Starbucks package if you don't drink as much soda/mocktails as my dear husband. That could also be a good choice for you.

Thank you - is the free at Sea the same as the soda pkg as I don't see it listed and the soda pkg doesn't mention juices that may be in a mocktail.

The Free at Sea offer is the Premium [adult] Beverage Package also called "Free Unlimited Open Bar". It includes sodas, non-alcoholic, and alcoholic drinks up to $15. It does not include Starbucks.

The soda package isn’t part of FAS, if you want mock tails and soda you will need the package that includes alcohol with gratuities of $21 a day.
