I'm currently holding my drinks package in my basket at app. £313 pp. I don't sale until October tho. Can I ask what the discount of 25% off brought the price down to for the OP? :)

Also, there is no mention in the drinks package of spirits and mixers (apart from cocktails!) I take it you can get vodka, gin etc.... with a mixer as part of this package?

Tried to post a link to an RC PDF file above, and found the link does not work anymore. See attachment.

thanks is that up to date ? :)

Cocktails are made of spirits. :) If you want straight scotch, for example, they will be happy to serve you that.

:) spirits in cocktails....! I could sometimes argue that's not the case lol... but what I meant was do they serve gin, vodka, whisky etc as part of the drinks package :)

Apologies jumping on the thread, just wanted to know what the new alcohol drinks package included on RCI. Can't see any mention of spirits, only beers, wine , cocktails etc...?

We are booking davina this year and we have 2 children age 11 and 7. We have only cruised majesty of the seas previously which did not have much going on so think davina as a bigger ship should have stuff on for them to enjoy . I know my 11 year old would prefer languages and baking to running around playing games.

I've heard the classic drinks package is now being offered with fantastica bookings included ? and we want to upgrade to the premium package that includes mini bar too and champagne 😊

Our 4 mugs are still wrapped up in plastic from September lol....

I would not get the ultimate package again. Hardly had speciality coffee and fresh OJ was a pain to get to be honest.. All the alcohol beverages are exactly the same.... I basically lived on water and cocktails :)

Really good to see this list all together.

 

 

 

I would have though they should be happy with bread and water while they are down stoking the boilers and pumping the bilges. ;)

I know bless em. 😇

They were treated to the odd glass of flat lemonade (or whatever it is the Americans call it lol) . 😀

Was when there in September 😊

Hi which ports and bars had the free wifi ? :)

Yes, the Ultimate package includes spirits and mixers.

 

Maybe this will help:

Premium includes spirits and mixers also doesn't it?

The way the packages read RCI make it sound like you get more alcohol in the ultimate - and from the forums that clearly isn't the case!

Where on MOS can you get lattes, cappuccinos, etc.. included in the ultimate?. this is the only reason I would get the ultimate package, thanks....

We are only on a 4 night cruise but have $50 dollars a day credit. Would this just sit on the bill and come off at the end of the trip?

Yes, they could go to any open food venue, including Windjammer. Tap water is available at any bar.

 

Bringing on any beverages, except for the two bottles of wine, is technically prohibited. At US ports, this rule is generally not enforced for soft drinks, except during spring break time. I don't know how it is at non-US ports.

Thanks, we will be boarding at Miami. My kids don't really like US flavoured juices (like grape or cranberry :) ) or carbonated drinks so don't think a drinks package would be any good for them.

Milk and juices are complimentary, but usually only available at restaurants, and juices only in the morning.

Thanks, so if they were thirsty during the day (not at meal times) would they go to somewhere like the Windjammer for a juice or milk? They could only get water at the bar? I take it I could take my own 'soft' drinks on board for them?

Myself and hubby are thinking of purchasing the ultimate drinks package but wondering what my two children can drink without having to pay for a drinks package for them. They will drink milk. Can they get this at any time? Can they get diluted juices on board at any time also?

Interested in this too. The bus takes you and your luggage to the airport at 2pm but unsure of how you time it to get to the shuttle bus for 2. How do you know how long the tours take if hopping on and off? Can anyone provide experience of this tour?

See.... My husband - smart/casual ;)

Welcome to CC! Some feel the need to be moral police. ;). Before anyone gets their panties in a wad, I'm not referring to anyone specifically, just making a general observation based on experience.

 

That said, I have gotten some excellent advice and help over the years. I love this resource and try to ignore the bad eggs. :)

Better cover our full body tattoos up and take all our piercings out as well ;)

Men should at least wear long trousers and closed shoes for dinner in any restaurant that is not a Mc Donalds or similar. Especially if they have reached a certain age. This is a minimum dress code requirement in most countries and it should also be applied on a cruise line that claims to provide reasonable quality standards in the restaurants. I can not believe that a grown up man who can afford a four star cruise vacation can not bring at least one clean long sleeve trouser and a pair of shoes that are not sneakers or flip flops. To bring a suit is no longer required but should we move to the other extrem with short trousers, muscle shirt and flip flops during day and night? How does this look match with a cruise ship that claims to be elegant and luxury?

Gosh that's a bit strong isn't it? I'm talking about knee length smart/casual shorts, smart (loose) polo shirt and deck shoes, not hot pants, crop top and flip flops. [emoji15]

Thanks for the replies. I thought the traffic may be worse as everyone heading out of disney at the end of the labor weekend. Turnpike seems more favourable then!

Would you say is better taking the turnpike from Miami up to Orlando too? We are stopping off at port St lucie on the way up which I think it's off the i95. Also is it very easy to get from Miami airport onto the i95/turnpike. This will be on a Sunday evening and bit anxious of driving at dusk. Never flew into Miami before. Thanks again x

Hi, just realised we will be driving to Miami from Orlando on Monday 7th Sept which I believe is Labor Day. This is the day we check out from our hotel in Orlando. Can anyone recommend a good route and what time we should leave to get to Miami Port...? Is the traffic pretty bad on this day ?

Any advice appreciated thanks

Apologies for jumping on the thread but I read this with interest.... My husband is the same re clothing, he was only planning to take shorts (knee lenth, cargo type shorts) with a polo shirt. Would this be okay then for the 4 night Majesty cruise? Our confirmation states we are on the 'early dining' does this mean a 6.30pm sit down? Thanks

I Havent renewed. I checked the embassies of us and Bahamas nd apparently it 'should' be six months but prob be fine! Again no definite answer even from the embassy!! 😀

What does your answer have to do with the O.P.'s question? It's great you do this but it doesn't help the O.P.

 

 

O.P. - I don't think the passport extension applies in your case. I believe this applies to someone who is living outside the U.K.' date=' at the time their passport will expire and they can apply for a 12 month extension.

 

You'll probably have to just renew the passport now, to match his cruise documents and then apply for a new passport later. You don't want to risk being denied boarding. :([/quote']

 

Thanks. I rang RCI who said I would be fine and then they responded later via email with 'you need to renew '!

Think I'll just take the hit and renew now in old name and renew next year in his new name 😲

Thanks 😃
