Soda card query

[User Error]

Assuming when you buy a soda card that you get a sticker on your cruise card, I have a query

If you buy a liquor product, say Jack Daniels and want some Coke in it, do they charge you for the Coke or is it free if you have the soda card

 

Can anyone also confirm how much a glass/cuo of Soda from the fountain is if purchased on own and indeed how much cans of Coke etc are to buy

 

We're not sure if the Soda card will be good for us thats all as we like the odd drink but not 3 or 4 every day

 

Thanks

Jack and Coke is a Jack and Coke. Soda card does not affect it.

 

I think sodas were about $2 ea with the tip, only canned soda was root beer.

We were on the Sapphire Princess last week. If you buy an individual soda you will receive a can and a glass of ice. The price was $1.95 + 15% gratuity for a total cost of $2.24. You would need to buy an average of more than 2.3 sodas a day to make the Soda Card cost effective.

You will not pay less for a Jack Daniels whether you want coke with it or not, even with the soda sticker. The price of that drink is the price of that drink, whether or not you pre-paid for your soda or not. ;)

 

If you are asking about buying a bottle for your stateroom, that is for in cabin consumption. You can bring a glass of coke to your stateroom if you would like and add Jack D to it, but you are not supposed to pour yourself Jack D in a glass in your stateroom and then carry it to a bar to add a mixer to it.

There is not much question as to couples that purchase one soda card and use it indiscriminately for them both. Rightly or not, we do see this happen.

But the secondary question pertains to the bar set up that Princess gives to Elite passengers. As the multiple 50 ml bottles are a gift from the company, what restrictions are placed upon their use? Could you take one of these to a public area and pour it into a soda filled glass for your consumption? It is a gift. We have always wondered about that

I would say that this is not what they had in mind when supplying the mini bar set up. Just as when you order a bottle of liquor from the gift section before you cruise or from room service after you arrive, that is for in cabin consumption only (or at least supposed to be).
