Mirrasi Posted February 26, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I have a son in college going out on a cruise (Enchantment) this weekend. Basically a bunch of college guys out looking to have a good time. I've already given them the mom speech to have fun but be safe and don't be obnoxious, lol. Of course they didn't research anything and I would like to buy him a drink package but have a window cut off in a few hours. So forgive me for not searching. What's the difference between the 3 alcohol packages? I am trying to look on RCCL's site and it is CRAWLING for me. What's the recommended tips? I want to make sure these guys don't forget to tip what they need to! Also, if I buy him a drink package, I assume tip pricing isn't included for the drinks? I just need to give him some idea so he (and the other 3) are prepared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 26, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Here is an explanation of the packages: http://media.royalcaribbean.com/content/shared_assets/pdf/menus/beverage_packages.pdf Also, the cutoff only applies to purchasing in advance. They can still purchase when they board the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrasi Posted February 26, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Great ty!! I couldn't get the RCCL site to connect. Can anyone let me know about tipping too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adjjb12 Posted February 26, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2015 This chart explains the differences. http://cruisewithgambee.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Royal-caribbean-beverage-packages1.jpg With college boys, I'd think Premium would be what they need. The package does include gratuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 26, 2015 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Great ty!! I couldn't get the RCCL site to connect. Can anyone let me know about tipping too? Tips are added to the drink packages when you purchase. You will see an 18% charge added. Tips for stateroom attendant and dining room staff are $12 per day, and are automatically added to the onboard account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrasi Posted February 26, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Thanks! I bought him the premium and prepaid his tips so I know he's good. He'll be paying me back for that! I tried looking for something a little extra from his mommy :D but can't find anything. Im guessing a plate of strawberries for 4 college guys all crammed into one inside room might be a little weird. ROFL I can't believe they got an inside room with 4 of them :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be a good kid for you to be taking such good care of him...very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrasi Posted February 26, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) My thoughts exactly. :eek: ETA: He is a very good kid. Still, 4 college kids in one room makes me cringe, lol. Just for fun I went with the red velvet cupcakes with a nice note from his "mommy" reminding them all to be good boys. That should embarrass his sufficiently. My work is done. :) Edited February 26, 2015 by Mirrasi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
