PCO Posted September 11, 2006 #1 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I'm new to Carnival. Is there any pre-paid (unlimited) non-alcooholic or alcooholic beverage card(s) available ? Do they have any wine packages available ? Is this information available online ? Many thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VentureMan_2000 Posted September 11, 2006 #2 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Just a unlimited soda/ice tea card. Non-booze drinks are about $1 less than the real thing... and wine is not discounted at all. I'm guessing non-alcohol beer cost the same as a regular beer. Expect to pay about $5 (including automatic gratuity) for most booze drinks, wine, and beer... and $4 for non-booze foo-foo drinks. Fancy drinks and foo-foo can cost more. I recommend the MaiTai...

lovncruzn Posted September 11, 2006 #3 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I drink alot of Diet Coke-even with breakfast, so I always buy the soda card. I think on our last 5 night cruise the card was $27 with the tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmsherwood Posted September 11, 2006 #4 Share Posted September 11, 2006 The soda card (which covers sodas and juices) is $5.50 +15% per day for adults ($4=15% per day for children). It lets you get sodas/juices from any bar, servers in the dining rooms and lounges. There are also free drinks available at all times on the lido deck (the buffet area)-- coffee, tea, punch, lemonade, ice tea and some juices. It is possible to order drink coupons for alcoholic drinks. These can be bought on-line for delivery to the cabin. I think they are usually sold in 4 packs and include the tip--- they're supposed to save about $1 per drink, but I haven't used them in a long time (don't drink enough to bother), so someone else would be better qualified to go into that. Coffee, tea, iced tea, water, milk, espresso are available in the dining room, but if you like soda, you'd have to pay (or have the card). I always get a card and usually drink enough sodas to justify it, but the convenience is also worth it -- no signing everytime, no charges on the S&S account (except for the card, of course). Have a great cruise! bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southbayer Posted September 17, 2006 #5 Share Posted September 17, 2006 I believe thats $5.50 per day tip included for the Fountain Fun Card.... Its worth it to have, if you drink like 4-5 glass's soda per day anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
