I am sure that vat will be added every time you order a drink on the if you has a drink package, but my point is that now you can get a drink at least. When I was on Epic in september 2021 I think that I recall that they also added Vat to every Spirit/Alcohol order when in port. So that is not new.

This is from gusts currently on the Epic, why should they not tell the truth? 2 has confirmed this. As I remember there was also tax/VAT on the drinks in ports when we cruised with Epic in September 2021 so the Tax/Vat on drinks package is not new!

I got this from a current guest on NCL Epic in the Port of Livorno today! looks like NCL has paid for their Alcohol License and this is solved, Better late than never...

Most European ports has Tax/Vat on Alcohol/Spirits so when in port and you will get charged. It looks like NCL still only serve Beer and Wine in Italian an Spanish ports. I believe they did not paid for an Alcohol License. RCL, Celebrity, P&O does serve when in ports.

12 hours ago In Livorno!

Do you know what this thread is about? It does not seems that way! You do not offed me with calling me a girl. I must disappoint you. Should guest without the drink package not be aloud to buy a drink when in port?

I have a cruise with Getaway in june coming up (3th NCL Cruise) and I am so disappointed with NCL. This outrageous Non-serving in Southampton and now this "Only Beer & Wine when in port" in Livorno and other ports. If they had told me before I bought my Cruise fair enough but this sudden sign at the bar is not okay. I tried to push other people on Facebook to complain but they called me a troublemaker and alcoholic and so on. Now I see what happens on my cruise, if they do this "Only Beer and wine" Policy i am done with NCL. I have tried almost all (Main stream) Cruise lines and all are good on their own way. I chosed NCL this time because of the FAS and upgraded to Plus package, but if they not deliver and lie to me I will go to another Cruise line that treat me with decency and respect. I have recommended 3 other couples to Cruise with NCL and they did but I will not recommend NCL anymore.

I agree so much! I have a cruise with Getaway in june coming up (3th NCL Cruise) and I am so disappointed with NCL. This outrageous Non-serving in Southampton and now this "Only Beer & Wine when in port" in Livorno and other ports. If they had told me before I bought my Cruise fair enough but this sudden sign at the bar is not okay.

Instead NCL cheat and screw you with the "Unfree at Sea" package 😂

Thanks! So did UK change their regulations? They must have since they can serve in ports now? 😂

What about spirits and cocktails?

Wonderful news! I hope you will get a Great Cruise! What about Spirits/Cocktails are they serving that?

I bought it online Upgrade Wifi/Plus/Specialty dining, I will try next week to get my money back, I should have bought it thru my Travel agent but it was so easy to do it online at NCL so I did that. This Upgrade was expensive so only get wine and bear is not acceptable. When that said to begin with I choosed NCL because of the Drink package FAS. So I feel cheated anyway maybe I am unfair...

Am I unfair? I paid for the Plus Package and I mean they should serve me at sea and in the Port. I get more and more Pi...d
