WendyVF Posted September 14, 2009 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I'd like to hear from people that have used the bar card. What drinks were you able to order? Were Drink of the Day included? I know it's for drinks $7.50 and under but I don't remember prices for frozen drinks and such. How were the bartender/server attitudes? Were you able to use it everywhere? How about in the dining room? Thanks for any input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pretty much order anything but the top shelf stuff. The bartenders are still getting tipped so they have no problems with it. You can use it everywhere but room service if I remember correctly. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CenTexGal Posted September 14, 2009 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Ours was $45 a day per person. I "think" the group has to be 15 people or more to qualify...we were a group of 275:eek: Everyone in the group has to get the card. I never had a problem getting any drink I ordered, as long as it didn't come in a special glass...maybe, I just never ordered anything that wasn't covered in the price range. Don't know about all ships, I would assume so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargent_Schultz Posted September 14, 2009 #8 Share Posted September 14, 2009 It is only offered to groups of a minimum size assuming those who don't drink and/or are light drinkers will compensate for the alcoholics. Everyone in the group must purchase if old enough. Those not old enough must buy soda cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joebat1 Posted September 14, 2009 #10 Share Posted September 14, 2009 What is the reasoning behind a bar card being offered to groups? Revenue..... in the example given of $45.00 per day X 7 days X 245 passengers = $ 86,625.00.... Quite a large revenue source considering Carnival purchases the liquor at wholesale..... I, for one, would pass-out, or fall down and knock myself out before I could finish 7 or 8 drinks each day for a week~~!!~~ I am thinking my liver would be pickled for SURE.....

Sargent_Schultz Posted September 14, 2009 #11 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Bar cards also have to be prepaid BEFORE the cruise. If you screw up and "pay" for drinks with your regular S&S card instead of the bar card, too bad, so sad. You still have to pay for those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WendyVF Posted September 14, 2009 Author #12 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Thanks for the responses. Trying to decide if a group cruise that includes this is right for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
