karen of PA Posted June 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I had previously read that there are certain mixed drinks that are available at reduced prices during the late afternoon. Has anyone seen this on your cruises? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted June 19, 2011 #2 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Yes, drinks during the "power hour" are are UD$3.95 plus tip. This is for well drinks, that is house brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted June 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted June 19, 2011 On the May 1 sailing of Caribbean Princess you could get a blue margarita, strawb daiquiri, singapore sling, pina colada, and LI iced tea for $3.99 between 4 and 7 pm at any bar on the ship. Also house spirits for the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camofwilliamsburg Posted June 20, 2011 #7 Share Posted June 20, 2011 On the star it was also from 8- closing but it was half the regular size drinks. The pina colada during the day was double the size. They must have raised the pricing since power hour just in March- April was 2.99 a drink.

janny444 Posted June 20, 2011 #8 Share Posted June 20, 2011 We are going on the Star.....how do you find out on board where....if ....there is a "power Hour"......is it just a case of using the tongue in my head and asking at Reception/any bar?

kate59 Posted June 20, 2011 #9 Share Posted June 20, 2011 just off the Sun and after a few complaints from passengers to Princess (not me) the power hour was put back on but they were $4.99 for a few types of drinks and was for 9 pm to 11 pm - but the size of glass they were served in was the normal. They were available in most of the bars and on the back of some of the drink menus (once they put them on). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be happy if they standardized somewhere between $2.99 and $3.99 for bar drinks and beer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pia1913 Posted June 20, 2011 #11 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I'd be happy if they standardized somewhere between $2.99 and $3.99 for bar drinks and beer! It looks as if the $2.99 has gone and the $3.99 is now the norm. And they've removed the beer choices, since at $3.99 beer is no longer a bargain price. What would be nice is if they'd put in some wine choices at $3.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can hope Princess is listening about the wine!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tralynn Posted June 20, 2011 #13 Share Posted June 20, 2011 On the Golden at the end of May, they were $3.99 and it was from 8 to midnight. They still had the same menu, so beer was shown, but you come out cheaper getting the bucket of beer special. We also found that the regular prices of the drinks did not go up, so if you may want a second power hour drink, you're better off just ordering the full size up front. Ex.: The regular pina colada is $6.95 and is more than twice the amount of the smaller power hour pina colada. At the new power hour price, it makes more sense to order 1 regular sized drink instead of 2 power hour drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
