GoinCruisin Posted February 23, 2008 #5 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Can more than one child share a soda card? We have 4 teenagers going and thought we would buy 2 cards...... You will get many opinions on this, some nice, some not so nice. The cards are per person... that is all I'm going to say on this matter :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticcruiser Posted February 23, 2008 #6 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Can I ask what age is considered a child? My daughter is 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted February 23, 2008 #7 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Can more than one child share a soda card? We have 4 teenagers going and thought we would buy 2 cards...... What two kids will get the soda at dinner time? We never got the soda card for our kids. they cost way too much. On Carnival there was enough to drink- Iced tea, lemonade, fruit punch. Mixed the tea with lemonade and fruit punch for different flavors. First cruise we took 12 packs for each of the kids-- which more then half was not gone by the end of the cruise.

#4'smom Posted February 24, 2008 #8 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Thanks for the advice. We will probably stick to bringing our own, drinking what is available and buying whatever else we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Captain Funtime Posted March 1, 2008 #9 Share Posted March 1, 2008 It has been reported on CC that the price has recently been increased to $6 per day.... Bring your own..... much less expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amyg426 Posted March 1, 2008 #11 Share Posted March 1, 2008 If you buy a soda (2.01 with tax I believe) do you get the whole can, or just a glass? If I have a soda card can I ask for the can? If we have 4 people cruising, can we each bring a small cooler? I was just planning on getting soda cards for my family as we are big soda drinkers, but with all of the info I am reading about only getting a glass and sometimes flat at that and the crew not being happy to serve people with cards I am considering just bringing as much soda on board as I can. Anyone have any good ideas on how to pack soda to get a lot of it on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Am Canadian, Eh Posted March 1, 2008 #12 Share Posted March 1, 2008 If you buy a soda (2.01 with tax I believe) do you get the whole can, or just a glass? Your $2 will get you the whole can. The soda card gets you one glass of soda (which varies from bar to bar - from really small to big enough to fit a whole can) at a time. The bartenders will use what cans they have open first (from making rum & cokes, etc) and keep topping up until your glass is full. So yes, sometimes it's flat. If it is, just go to the next bar & try again. If I have a soda card can I ask for the can? You can ask, but I wouldn't hold my breath. If we have 4 people cruising, can we each bring a small cooler? Carnival's FAQ is a little unclear. You might want to get a larger collapsable cooler, put it in your checked bag & open and fill it once on board - I was just planning on getting soda cards for my family as we are big soda drinkers, but with all of the info I am reading about only getting a glass and sometimes flat at that and the crew not being happy to serve people with cards I am considering just bringing as much soda on board as I can. I didn't have any problems with servers or bartenders being happy - but I've also heard it happens. If you're getting served by the same server for more than a couple of rounds (ie: at the shows, go to one particular bar), you could throw a couple of dollars their way with your last drink. Anyone have any good ideas on how to pack soda to get a lot of it on board? Haven't done it personally, but I've read of people successfully putting luggage tags on cases and checking it in that way. Enjoy your cruise! For us, the card was worth avoiding the hassle of lugging it onboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaysmomof1 Posted March 1, 2008 #13 Share Posted March 1, 2008 When we went on our cruise I bought a roll on cooler that would fold up in the suitcase. I didn't drink all the soda that I took for the week (just dh and myself) so I left the extra soda in the cabin. This cruise my DS will be with us so I will purchase a soda card for him.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Captain Funtime Posted March 1, 2008 #14 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I have "checked" 12 pks of soda and 24 pks of water with the porters at the pier. Just slap a luggage tag on them and they will arrive at our cabin. I carry a soft side cooler (bought it on a cruise filled with beer at the pool) The Steward keeps it full of ice (on the floor in the head so you don't get water on the carpet) No Problem !

serene56 Posted March 1, 2008 #15 Share Posted March 1, 2008 If we have 4 people cruising, can we each bring a small cooler? when i sailed with the kids we each carried on a 12 pack of pepsi. Was surprised that by the end of the week we all still had more then half of it left. Remember there is iced tea/lemonade and fruit punch all for free.
