sailor05 Posted March 8, 2015 #51 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I just changed my wife and I from the Ultimate to the Premium package and will wait to get onboard to see exactly what the RCCl coffee shops versus the onboard Starbucks and will decide then whether to upgrade or not. We really love Starbucks so I figured for the $6 difference we can get at least 1 drink per day from there. However we may find that the RCCL coffee shops are comparable. But if we do upgrade how do they charge the difference? I assume it will be on our seapass account versus the credit card I just paid with.

Yes, if you upgrade, you will only have to pay the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmysmomma9 Posted March 8, 2015 #53 Share Posted March 8, 2015 If a cruise ends on a Sunday, do we have to pay for Sunday in our package? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted March 8, 2015 #54 Share Posted March 8, 2015 If a cruise ends on a Sunday, do we have to pay for Sunday in our package? Thanks! Don't know about alcoholic drinks, but people have reported being able to use the Freestyle soda machines on the day of disembarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyeilis Posted March 8, 2015 #56 Share Posted March 8, 2015 You pay for the number of nights on the cruise, and we've gotten our lattes and mochas with Replenish on the last morning. sailor05, we found the non-branded espresso places to be just fine! It's likely going to be Starbucks or Seattle's Best brand espresso anyway. But it does sound like a fun little taste test, to get one from each and compare.

weschmom Posted March 9, 2015 #57 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Hello, We leave for our first cruise on 3/23...Liberty of the Seas 5-day Western Caribbean. Have been looking at drink packages and pictures of menus and my head is spinning. A few questions -- 1. We were thinking a package might make sense for the days we are at sea. For the days in Labadee and Ocho Rios, not so much. Can we purchase packages just for the "at sea" days? 2. What can we get with no package at all? I assume ice water can be obtained for free? Sodas with meals? 3. I need (yes...NEED) morning coffee. Where do we go for the free stuff, and is it any good? Is there a Starbucks on Liberty of the Seas? Thanks for your help....sorry for the newbie questions. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted March 9, 2015 #58 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Hello,We leave for our first cruise on 3/23...Liberty of the Seas 5-day Western Caribbean. Have been looking at drink packages and pictures of menus and my head is spinning. A few questions -- 1. We were thinking a package might make sense for the days we are at sea. For the days in Labadee and Ocho Rios, not so much. Can we purchase packages just for the "at sea" days? No, the package must be purchased for either all 5 days, or the last 4 days. If you want to purchase for the last 4 days, you must do that onboard. 2. What can we get with no package at all? I assume ice water can be obtained for free? Sodas with meals? No sodas are free. Free drinks are tap water, iced tea, lemonade, coffee, hot tea, milk, and juices at breakfast. 3. I need (yes...NEED) morning coffee. Where do we go for the free stuff, and is it any good? Is there a Starbucks on Liberty of the Seas? No Starbucks branded venue. Cafe Promenade has regular coffee for free, and specialty coffees that may use Starbuck's beans, for extra cost. Thanks for your help....sorry for the newbie questions. :D Answers in RED above. Edited March 9, 2015 by clarea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryb48 Posted March 9, 2015 #59 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I am just wondering, is there a limit to how many drinks per day you can have with the premium package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lakings39 Posted March 9, 2015 #61 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I am just wondering, is there a limit to how many drinks per day you can have with the premium package? No, there is no limit on the number of drinks you can have in a day on any of the packages. Of course, if anyone is visibly belligerent the bartenders have the right to cut them off.

mollyeilis Posted March 10, 2015 #63 Share Posted March 10, 2015 2. What can we get with no package at all? I assume ice water can be obtained for free? Sodas with meals? You can buy whatever you want without the package. It's not package or ONLY the free items. Buy the booze, buy the smoothies, buy the lattes, buy the Pellegrino or the Evian...no package needed. Just making sure that's understood, because the question almost seemed like maybe that wasn't known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did understand that....was just wanting to know what I can get without having to pay extra $$. I realize I worded it poorly. :) Thanks for your help. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funbobby68 Posted March 14, 2015 #65 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Since I plan on only getting the package for the last 5 days of our sailing , assuming I could stay awake till 12:01 I'm thing that would be the start of the new day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibabaxx Posted April 12, 2015 #66 Share Posted April 12, 2015 This may sound like a silly question but I can't find anywhere in the ultimate package stating I can get spirits and mixers but I take it these are all included ie gin/rum etc.....:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems they don't have Bailey's in the dining room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted April 12, 2015 #69 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Oh really? I take it you can get Baileys elsewhere on the ship though?? No problem getting Bailey's on the rocks at any bar, and in the theater too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachluver9 Posted April 12, 2015 #70 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Oh really? I take it you can get Baileys elsewhere on the ship though?? You can get the Bailey's at almost every bar, but then the coffee becomes the problem. I just started getting a glass of Bailey's prior to dinner using my drink pkg and took it into the MDR with me to pour into my coffee. Problem solved, but shouldn't have been so difficult.
