skiladyldp Posted February 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Hello, My TA is giving us on board credit. Can I use that to pay towards the beverage package? We plan to buy the package since it works well for us and I can't think of anything else I would use the credit for. I don't plan to use the spa or buy stuff from their on board stores. Thank you for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LHT28 Posted February 14, 2013 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2013 If you buy the package onboard ..yes Anything that goes on your World Card the OBC will be used for those purchases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDMOREU Posted February 14, 2013 #4 Share Posted February 14, 2013 If you buy the package onboard ..yesAnything that goes on your World Card the OBC will be used for those purchases If you buy the Liquor Package for a entire 20-day cruise, are the 1st day of embarkation and the 20th day of disembarkation part of the cost; or, are they excluded and you only pay for 18 days? I know that you do not have to buy the package for the whole cruise; but, that once you purchase it, you must buy all remaining days. Is it true that the last day you can buy the Liquor Package is the 3rd day of the cruise? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitraveler Posted February 15, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Yes, if you don't buy the liquor package by the third day it is no longer available. Hold true for the internet package too. Don't forget you may have gratuities to pay too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skiladyldp Posted February 15, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Thanks for all the information. Prepaid tips are included in our package so we don't need to worry about that either. If my TA has posted our on board credit a few days before the cruise can I call Oceania and get the beverage package and have them use the on board credit or do I need to wait until board the ship to do this.

You need to book onboard to use the OBC If you pre book the package you pay at the time of booking just like the cooking classes, excursions etc...

TIA I am not up on the beverage packages but you can purchase it on embarkation day according to others You will not pay for disembarkation day because the bars are not open that morning;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On longer cruises can can buy the Internet package up to the 7th or even 10th day of the cruise - I do not know if this is true for the liquor package as well.

So, what day would the liquor package start if we bought it for the whole cruise. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
