ScottC4746 Posted May 17 #1 Share Posted May 17 I have the premium for us for our cruise in 14 days, YIPPEEE!!!!! I have been all over X's website and cannot find if there is a limit per day of how many drinks. While I do not plan on getting anywhere near that amount, bottled water IS included in the plan and was wondering if non-alcoholic drinks count against that maximum per day, if it exists.

CruiseeCrazee Posted May 17 #2 Share Posted May 17 As far as I know, there is no maximum. Of course, if you're downing vodka and get visibly trashed, they will cut you off, but there's no "15 drinks per day" or whatever like some cruise lines do. Do be aware, though, that you can only get one drink of any kind at a time per card (so like, you can't go up and ask for two bottles of water with just your card. You'd need a second person's card to get a second bottle). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have done this on many trips. Cheers OP there is no limit on number of beverages beer/coffee/waters. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense, they don't want you using yours to get a friend a drink who did not buy a package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t get two alcoholic drinks at one time, but I have never been told NO when I asked for a bottle of water at the same time as an alcoholic drink, soda, or tea/coffee. I have even gotten two bottles of water at one time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eno Posted May 17 #7 Share Posted May 17 Is there a time limit between drinks. In the evening on Princess I would get a double scotch. Guess I will order a single followed by another single Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinitime1 Posted May 17 #9 Share Posted May 17 Hoping my question follows the spirit of this topic. I have the regular AI package and will need to upgrade to premium. When is the best time to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jelayne Posted May 17 #11 Share Posted May 17 45 minutes ago, 39august said: No time restriction for doubles or singles. Just order a double to begin with. So far Celebrity treats guests as responsible adults ( no limit on the number of drinks, no signing for towels at the pool, no announcements every 30 minutes to remind you when bingo will start). Hope that continues but as many cruisers from other lines move over to X I wonder if needing a limit on the number of drinks or signing for towels so you don’t steal them will lead X to do the same. 8 minutes ago, martinitime1 said: Hoping my question follows the spirit of this topic.

The best time to upgrade is before the cruise, if you can catch a flash sale you can for $8. 39 including gratuities that’s a win. On board you most likely will pay twice as much to upgrade.

Thank you for the info. Our booking already includes gratuities but this "flash sale" would seal the deal. Where would one hope to find this deal?

Where would one hope to find this deal? You can find the flash sales on the app or on the website, but I think it's quicker to navigate the app. Just check back periodically and keep an eye out. Folks will also post a "heads-up" on the CC boards when a good flash sale comes around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason to wait that I can think of is if one wants to use OBC from their TA to make the purchase. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where would one hope to find this deal? Check your cruise planner. Flash sales can just pop up, many times they only apply to select sailings. Also around holidays ( Memorial Day) there may be sales. If you see a decent discount go ahead and purchase the upgrade, if a better deal comes along you can cancel and repurchase up to about. 4 days before sailing.

TGfromTX Posted May 21 #16 Share Posted May 21 Flash sale right now for 35% off - at least for my booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankD63 Posted May 21 #17 Share Posted May 21 I did the math on today’s sale and even though it states 35% it is actually a 40% discount. $15 per day discounted to $9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed that with X compared to RCCL. I am surprised RCCL doesn't remind me to go to the bathroom with all the announcements, especially Diamonds International.

Cheers OP there is no limit on number of beverages beer/coffee/waters. When have you last sailed on Celebrity? Last month most of the time I was asked for 2 cards to get 2 drinks of any type including water. If I was at a venue that they knew me then it was usually not a problem. Retreat lounge was not a problem either... but the OVC always asked for 2 cards for 2 waters! No limit to the total number of drinks of any type unless you become too drunk.

highway180 Posted May 22 #20 Share Posted May 22 My last cruise was in Feb, on the Ascent.But honestly when in OVC i would go to the coffee bar on the way out, grab an americano to go and ask for 2 waters. My wife did the same, this way we would have a "supply" back in the room. We did this daily. I will say if you ordered from a waiter in the OVC , and you wanted 2 drinks other than water, they would ask for both cards, or at least show them both upon delivering the drinks.
