Free soft drinks on GSC?

[canuckgal]

If you zip over to the buffet area on Great Stirrup Cay, what soft drinks do they have to drink? Water and? Do they have the favoured water and lemonade? Should we bring our own refillable water bottles and run back and forth from beach to buffet? Worried about staying hydrated, thx!

There are no free soft drinks. You'll need to have to soda card or use your key card to add to your onboard account. There is free water, etc but if you want a bottle of water, it will cost you (at least it did in April).

Ok, thanks, guess we will fill up our bottles with the new flavoured watered before we leave the ship.

They dont allow you to fill up bottles from the buffet.

Bring your own flavored water on the ship if you want.

Adding this info just in case anyone thinks the cruise line is being cheap by not allowing this, I've read that it's actually to protect other cruisers from those who might be sick (Norovirus anyone?). As in people filling their personal water bottles by pushing on the fill area with the edge of their water bottle that they have touched with their mouths and then spreading germs to the next cruisers who place their glasses there to fill them. :)

You can't fill your bottle directly but you can fill several cups and pour them into your bottle. This is what we do.

i went to a bar over by the clamshells and they filled my cup with ice and soda over and over it was awesome!!
