travelntreats Posted May 20, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 20, 2010 This is driving me nuts.. MACH- Is there anyway you can find out what this means? Why not just call Bon Voyage' dept. yourself and see if you can order liquor.... ??? Pretty simple if you need to know that bad ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Texas Realtor Posted May 20, 2010 #6 Share Posted May 20, 2010 This is driving me nuts.. MACH- Is there anyway you can find out what this means? Michelle also posted that the policy has not changed. So it seems as though they changed their mind after all. Looks like the Victory in March is a go. Aft wrap with a couple of bottles of booze for me and DW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litewait Posted May 20, 2010 #7 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I received the same reply above from a facebook post I did on their facebook page. I just posted asking specifically about bottle sales so we will see. I'm sorry but there was no mis communication IMO.. They are back peddling on a really stupid decision.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ava_girl_123 Posted May 20, 2010 #8 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Why not just call Bon Voyage' dept. yourself and see if you can order liquor.... ??? Pretty simple if you need to know that bad !

Chevy57 Posted May 20, 2010 #14 Share Posted May 20, 2010 An unfortunate miscommunication occurred between our Bon Voyage department and call centers which led to the dissemination of incorrect information to our reservations agents. To clarify, we have not ceased alcohol sales, either pre-cruise or during the sailing, through Bon Voyage and apologize for any misunderstanding or confusion. I received this same email just 10 minutes ago in response to an email that I sent yesterday. Just wanted to confirm the same email. This was copy and pasted.
