I feel that I am starting to be unreasonable in my expectations but like you have said, I don't mind paying more if I really want something but the fact that the new menu has purposefully added a dollar above the price to be included for cocktails does not sit well in principle. Yes, they are probably overcharged and sweet as but as a first time cruiser and first time X it would have just been nice to experience the menu without worry. I still can't comprehend the change in the same wine being $16 last month a glass and now $30 a glass. I don't want go be a grump but our total for this trip is approaching £30K with cruise, flights, accommodation and extras so far. Still have the visas to pay for and this has just come as an added blow for us.

Exactly. And the fact that it has cost over £1000 a night for me and likely many others before all the excursions, gratuities, laundry etcetera, it would be nice to at least be able to enjoy the signature drink range without even more charges or asking for a different menu to see what is without charge. The principle is criminal. I'd just like to enjoy my holiday at this kind of price point.

I'm sailing out of Asia on Millie. I won't have as many bar options as edge series as far as I understand? I am agast how wine can nearly double to 30 a glass. I'm going to email celebrity about the changes and if the premium package allowance is increasing too. Ever hopeful!

Hi I go on my first cruise ever with celebrity in November. We have booked sky suite so have access to Luminae. Today, I have spotted a new menu for luminae on YT. Cocktails are now $18 and the chardonnay has gone from $16 a glass to $30!! A glass. I understand that premium package is up to and including drinks to the value of $17. So this now means that no cocktails, nor wine will be covered in luminae despite having the premium drinks package and an upcharge of difference plus 20%? I have searched online and unable to source any recent information on these price increases. We have spent over £15k for this cruise only so I am hoping someone can clarify this for me as I am starting to dread this if this is the case.
