dr dreamer Posted March 27, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I am booked on the VOS for April 29th. last time I sailed there was a wine package you could purchase and they had several price options depending on category of wine, you could choose from the Platinum, the Gold and so forth there were 4 different options. I just called and was told that now they only offer the Platinum. Can anyone confirm if this is correct. did not have a lot of confidence on the person that helped me on the phone.? also she told me that the policy had changed and now we were allowed to carry in 2 bottles of wine per cabin. this was a big no no when I last sailed. can anyone confirm if this is correct the price I was given for the platinum came out to 7.50 per glass assuming 5 glasses per bottle. not sure if worth it. what is the price of a glass of wine if ordered separately? I am not sure of the cost savings advanatage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF_Knight Posted March 27, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Can't help you with wine package availability or pricing, but I can confirm you are now allowed to bring on two 750ml bottles of wine per stateroom.

I am not sure of the cost savings advanatage. I found this fairly recent post. Hopefully can fill in some info for you. found this, so probably does work out cheaper on a package unless you wanted the very cheapest wine on the wine list How much does the wine package cost? The cost of the wine package depends on how many bottles you select. 5 bottles: $165 7 bottles: $220 10 bottles: $300 12 bottles: $335 Please note a 15% gratuity will be added to each package price listed above. All prices in US dollars. What wines are included in the wine package? Below are the wines in the Wine & Dine package and their price per bottle if you purchased them seperately.

The package is on the website. Edited March 27, 2014 by jp30338 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
