CruiseAddict1982 Posted May 2, 2014 #127 Share Posted May 2, 2014 No, it's fantastic for your body. Lol anything in large amounts isn't good, but it's ok to indulge every now and then. I'm a fitness instructor and I'm getting the premium package. I'm still going to work out but that won't nearly make up for the calories I'll consume but oh well it's vacation.

Rare dogo88 Posted May 2, 2014 #129 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Your welcome. When I was researching the packages both here and on FB, it frustrated me that so many folks had to post their opinion on others health if they got the package, but I chose not to post anything then as I had not tried the package. Now that I have (and I know I shouldn't), I take it personally that someone is accusing me of being unhealthy. Next to the pride we have in our kids and each other, my wife (who also got the package) and I take great pride in our health. In fact, we had a few great morning runs together up on deck morning after partaking in the package and booked a private excursion that was a huge workout. Anyway, I apologize for the soapbox, as its not my message board style and, back to the topic at hand. I can't recall if I posted it here, but we had rough seas on day one and I tried a few tricks and a Makers Mark and Ginger Ale seemed to do the trick. LOL Who cares? It's your body. If you don't take care of it based upon what other think, it's your issue. Nothing to take personally. There is always a spoon in every thread to try and get a reaction.

Justmekaren918 Posted May 2, 2014 #130 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm debating about getting the $55 a day drink package. It sounds so convenient no signing, no hauling water & soda on board. Not sure if I would spend $55 a day. Would be interested in hearing about your experience. And can you use it on a coffee liquor after dinner drink? Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app After getting a bottle or 2 of water! Then moving onto 4 refills of soda or so and then switching over beer or frozen drinks a few of them before dinner! A glass of wine at dinner and then back to a few more beers for the late evening, so I found that I got my worth out of the package. I did an intensive sea days cruise and actually the one day we were in Cozumel I pretty much took advantage of the ship and the packages I paid for. Seemed they have just about everything! I did the $55.00, because I didn't need the designer coffee and whoever is doing Royal coffee I felt it make a run at DD. I would use the beverage stations to make ice coffee in my soda cup! Maybe you know this, but first night wine steward and I were at a slight language barrier, so I was a little lost at them getting me a glass of wine that was on the package, so I for went without that night but brought my own glass in the other 2 nights! It was great it was all paid for and no monster bill to wake up too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herrbeir Posted May 2, 2014 #131 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Does anyone know what the wine menu is like for by the glass in MDR if you have a drink pkg? Thanks On our recent Jewel cruise they had a different wine list in the MDR from the other bars. I have no idea why, but I could only get the Ferrari Carano Fume Blanc in the MDR, and the Conumdrum outside the MDR. I kept it within the $12 Premium limit and had no issues ordering, or being charged for additional amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AeroBaldness Posted May 2, 2014 #132 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Lol anything in large amounts isn't good, but it's ok to indulge every now and then. I'm a fitness instructor and I'm getting the premium package. I'm still going to work out but that won't nearly make up for the calories I'll consume but oh well it's vacation. Leaving tomorrow for Bermuda Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app You are cruising on Grandeur, correct? If so, make the Solarium Bar your main place for drinks. Nicholas is amazing and Ireyna (sp?) was fantastic too. And, from a fitness standpoint, in case you didn't know, the men's & woman's locker rooms have both a steamroom & sauna (you know, to sweat out the booze :cool: ). Have a GREAT trip.

BAV2005 Posted May 2, 2014 #133 Share Posted May 2, 2014 The way I look at it isn't so much about "coming out ahead". I love that I can pay for it ahead of time just like my gratuities and not have to think about it again! I'm not a huge drinker, but I do like to try new drinks! With the package I'm able to try new things and not worry if it will be wasted. And when i am out dancing it is not unheard of for me to have 4 midori sours in an evening if I'm not driving! And I'm a big bottled water drinker as well. I want to arrive on the ship with as much prepaid and pre planned as possible so I can just relax!

YadaYadaJodi Posted May 2, 2014 #137 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) Long Island Iced Teas - $9.50Margarhita's average- $9.00 Martini's average- $950 Most drinks cost between $7.00-$8.50 Bloody Mary- $7.75 Mimosa's- $7.75 Bud light- $5.25 Wine averages $9.00 So if you drink 5 drinks I say its well worth getting the premium package, plus it includes non alcoholic drinks, fountain soda and bottled water. Deely- I agree totally, I think its great that RC allows everybody in the cabin to choose the package that works for them individually. Don't forget you need to add 15% gratuity to the above prices! On RCCL the package prices (except for just the soda pkg I think) include the gratuity. ******** I believe my DH & I will be getting the Premium Package on our cruise. We don't drink coffee so not considering the Ultimate Package. Here's how I justify the Premium Package: We both drink 2-3 sodas a day at home so we would probably buy the soda package at least. If I take: the soda package + gratuity plus the cost of a bottle of wine each from home (which we won't need to bring) plus the cost of the drinks + gratuity we would be drinking on the cruise plus a few water bottles + gratuity for port days I can come very close to the cost of the Premium Package. And no worrying about trying to get any bottled water onboard against the rules. AND no worrying if what we are ordering makes us over the "budget" of $55/day (where I would regret not getting the pkg). I will probably wait until the 2nd day to buy because the 1st day: We will use our buy-one-get-one free beer or wine coupons (we're just gold C&A) I will want at least 1 drink of the day in a souvenir glass. We can drink more cheaply by sticking to the drink of the day, rum & coke, etc. the first night and save our "experimenting" for the rest of the cruise. Can skip the soda on day 1 (we'll have had our morning one that is our substitute for coffee before boarding). ******** Everyone's drinking habits are different. You just have to do the math and see if one of the packages works out for you or if it would be better to pay as you go. We'll only be going on one cruise this year and probably not another for a while so justifying splurging and drinking a little extra (a LOT extra compared to everyday life - I don't even necessarily drink alcohol every week and the most is probably 4 drinks a week) on this vacation is easy too.

cairokid Posted May 14, 2014 #138 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thanks for all the interesting and varied points of view. Still have to make up our mind about getting a package on our first cruise this July. Can anyone tell me please what a soda fountain is? Is it like Club Soda that you can use as a mixer? Also whether European beers are included in the Premium package? We're not fans of American beer. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffysue Posted May 14, 2014 #141 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Two cruises with the $55 drink package, and I'm still trying to figure out if it is worth it, but I can see it totally depends on what kind of cruise you are on. Last time (last week) with only 3 stops, one in Nassau where we were back on board early (it was a late stop but we did not want to be out wandering after dark), and another in CocoCay (where you can use the drink package)....it was probably worth it. Particularly as I took full advantage of the bottled water, to the point where I still had one left when I got home. My favorite wine on board is $10 a glass, so between 2 glasses at dinner, 3 or so bottled waters a day, occasional after dinner drinks (OK, and sometimes before-dinner drinks), and frozen drinks by the pool/around the ship during the day...PLUS the cost of the soda package that I'd have gotten one way or the other...probably just broke even, without having a 20 page tab at the end of the cruise. :) Now, I was browsing the site dreaming about future cruises and found some nice ones that have 6-7 port stops...I don't think I'd even attempt a drink package on that, as there are just too many days spent away from the ship. (Plus I'd need 100% of my energy to keep up with that itinerary, which means I'd need a Red Bull package, not an alcohol package.:D). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justmekaren918 Posted May 14, 2014 #142 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Just off Brilliance, and I bought the $55.00 and I felt that after 2 sodas a day a couple of beers or frozen drinks before dinner a glass of wine at dinner , and then a few drinks I was over $55.00 mark, but I was on a sea intensive cruise. I was glad to not to lug water and soda; since it was just me and the luggage really was hard enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, plus, it seems like a coin toss as to whether stuff gets allowed through or confiscated, and I am the kind of person that even if I only paid $1 for something I will get annoyed if you take it from me. lol. So I really didn't want to get a case of water taken away, even though I could've saved a lot. I know, it's not rational. :o I barely made it with all the stuff I took with me, anyway, thanks to being able to drive to the port this time.

Not sure if I would spend $55 a day. Would be interested in hearing about your experience. And can you use it on a coffee liquor after dinner drink? I haven't read the whole thread and all responses so forgive me if this is repetitive, but I did have the $55 package. For me it was worth it because there weren't many port days on my cruise, one of which was CoCo Cay, so I could use it a lot and drank at least 6 bottles of water a day, in addition to any soda or alcohol I had. As others have said, if I was off the ship a lot on long port days, then no, I don't think it would be worth it. One thing, though, that I want to point out, is that sometimes the bartender DID give me paper to sign, even though I had the package. Some bartenders will do that looking for an extra tip, I think (even though the package already includes 15%). Some bartenders didn't have me sign anything. So (not that this is a deciding factor) I just wanted to make sure nobody assumes that because they have the package they won't have anything to sign. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beshears Posted May 14, 2014 #145 Share Posted May 14, 2014 We just got back two weeks ago from FOTS. My friend bought the soda package for I believe, $129. which included virgin drinks also. I know she had to sign for her alchol drinks when she ordered them. I think the package would have been good for her, but she would forget quite often to "carry" her drink cup with her.

norwane Posted May 14, 2014 #147 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Thank you all for your insights. We are going on the Indy, which including Labadee will be essentially a 4 days of sea days. We are for sure getting the soda package (even though I will have to bring Dt. Mt. Dew on board, as I am an addict!) :o I am thinking of getting the Prem. package for me, once on board. DH will probably be fine with just the soda and water package. Do they deduct my prem. package then from the soda package? Is that a big deal? :confused: Are there wines that are available only by the bottle, not by the glass? Do we have to buy the bottle or approximately how much more would I have to pay to get the wine by the glass? Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc2725 Posted May 15, 2014 #150 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I think it's worth it. You don't have to worry about how much you are spending on booze, can order what you want, and if you don't like a drink you don't need to drink it just because you paid for it....put it aside and get something else :-) Cheers!
