reilly1 Posted May 15, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I know that nobody can really answer this, but just looking for your thoughts on this one! The last few years Celebrity have had a Drink Package sale. I am sailing on Eclipse to Iceland/Norway on 6th July, and my husband and I normally take the Premium Package. With the recent "free drinks" offers, does anyone think the sale will still be offered this year? It is normally 15% so is worth quite a lot on the Premium Package.

I'm also waiting for the sale, we are sailing on the Eclipse at the end of July. I can wait a little longer...:):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reilly1 Posted May 15, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted May 15, 2013 We'll look after the Eclipse for you! We have sailed on her before and will be in the same cabin again - just love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking forward to reading your review when you return, we are on the same cruise in August. Like you I have fingers crossed for a drinks package sale :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASASJ5 Posted May 15, 2013 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hi - Maybe a silly question but how do you know when there is a sale on the packages? I was going to book them but they are quite pricey - a sale might make that decision easier! Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this available pre-sail or an onboard discount in previous years? We really want to book the premium package on Reflection. However, it is pricey so we were going to wait while we boarded and hope the $US price was better than £Uk sterling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reilly1 Posted May 16, 2013 Author #7 Share Posted May 16, 2013 It was on sale online via the celebrity website. Packages can be booked up until 4 days before departure (I think) so I am going to hold off for a while yet and keep my fingers crossed. The Premium package is fairly expensive, but worked our great for us, when you factor in not just alcohol, but all bottled water, fresh orange juice, nice coffees etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarletWelsh Posted May 16, 2013 #8 Share Posted May 16, 2013 We booked our cruise last August and waited and waited for the drinks package sale. We sailed on 29th April without it ever happening. I wonder if the 1-2-3 Go promotion may have replaced it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy cruzer Posted May 16, 2013 #9 Share Posted May 16, 2013 One option I've been thinking about is waiting until I'm on ship then deciding what to purchase and when. You can buy just the last few days worth, that may meet my needs and budget better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ORV Posted May 16, 2013 #10 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I believe the 2 or 3 times it's gone on sale it was a 10% discount, not 15%, but I could be wrong, it's happened before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crysalys22 Posted May 17, 2013 #14 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Hi, I too would be interested to hear if Celebrity release any discounts. We booked the Classic package last year (this covered everything we drank) before we sailed, which was great. It meant that we could enjoy a glass of wine (or two) on the Sunset Deck before sailaway. I believe you can pick up a package at any of the bars on the ship. For us it was worth the money, albeit a bit hefty!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gh1088 Posted May 17, 2013 #15 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I'll be watching this thread for my August Millenium sailing. I think a discount just might help my decision to buy a drink package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you are right, it was a 10% discount. Well, that was last year May or June? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariawoman Posted May 18, 2013 #17 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I believe it was January and June in 2012. I too have been waiting for this sale. I have 2 X cruises booked that don't have 123Go so....I want to book my Premium Non Alcohol package! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
