Carib210 Posted August 15, 2010 #1 Share Posted August 15, 2010 We are sailing on the Soltice in October and have deceided to purchase the beverage packages after much reading on these boards. My husband is definitely going with the premium and wants me to do the same. However, I'm really not much of a drinker. I prefer the taste of alcohol hidden in a Pina Colada. So, do the Pina Coladas come in at $8 or less, or do I go with the premium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Project_gal Posted August 15, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 15, 2010 On Infinity in November last year, I had Pina Coladas at lunchtime and was charged either $7.48 or $5.75 [both plus service charge of 15%]. I did not notice the price discrepancy until I checked at home when considering the beverage packages so I do not know why there were two different prices. I am sure that the drinks were always the same. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to beyond ships dot com The entire photo drink menu from the eclipse is there....with prices Most drinks were under 8 It swayed me to go classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carib210 Posted August 15, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Thanks for the site beyond ships dot com . I was not aware of that site. Although I did not see Pina Coladas listed, going by the other drinks listed & their prices, I think the classic package will work fine for me. And if not, I'm sure the ship won't turn down my money to upgrade to the Premium! Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thnx We (DH) and I had classic and yes we did use for coffee drinks, DH had 3 a day..including iced latte, I did not feel like I missed out with classic... I drank everything I wanted. Soda, water, coffee, fresh OJ, frozen drinks, wine, beer, mojito, At dinner I asked the Sommelier (sp) for a pairing each night and he would serve me a wine that was slightly over the $8 limit if he thought it was better..

wilson4 Posted August 16, 2010 #9 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Does anyone know if you can start with the Classic Package and upgrade it during the cruise if you feel you would like drinks from the Premium Package? It might be good to enjoy the Premium Package for the last few days of the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
