No matter where she drinks the wine there is a 15.00 per bottle 750 ml charge. During check in she will be directed to a table & once the charge is put on her account they will put a sticker on it & she will be able to drink it whenever.

Yes the corkerage fee is applied to your on-board account when you first board the ship. The fee has nothing to do with drinking the wine in your cabin or at dinner.

Corkage fee does not mean "to remove cork from bottle" but rather a term used for a service charge or fee. It does not really have much of anything to do with the service offered, but more the profit lost on that bottle.

 

There is not charge of any kind to take soda or water on board. But the profit from those things would not be a great loss, like wine would be.
