Alcoholic Beverage Cost Noordam

Tomorrow we are heading to Alaska where we will eventually meet up with the land tour and then cruise on the Noordam.

Our cruise package included a beverage package and I understand it can be used for drinks up to $9.00. Any drink over that price means we have to pay the entire cost. In other words we cannot buy a $12 for $3.00. I am hearing that drinks are about $7.95 plus 15% gratuity. So a $7.95 drink and gratuity comes to $9.14.

Can anyone tell me if I will be able to buy a $7.95 drink with my beverage package?

I am trusting that HAL means the $9 limit does NOT include the gratuity too.

Bottom line is you are correct any drink under $9 b4 gratuity as the 15% is covered in the package.

You are right, the Signature Drink Package already includes the 15% gratuity.

So you will not have any problems ordering your $7.95 cocktail.

Thank you very much for your response. HAL would have a real problem if it included the tips, but I wanted to be sure.
