hawkeyetlse Posted March 5, 2015 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The new wine list is on the website here: Gifts & More: Wine List Those of us who are used to NCL's stingy pours :p will be interested in the new "long pour": a glass and a half for only $2.75 more. Yes, a flat rate, no matter whether the wine is a North & South house white ($7.25 a glass, $10.00 for a long pour) or the ice wine ($17.50/glass :eek:, $20.25 for a long pour :)). Anyway, my question for anyone who has cruised since March 1: Are the long pours included in the UBP (as long as they cost less than $11)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manateemike67 Posted March 6, 2015 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I'm going to hazard a guess that once the auto tip is added it will cost more than the $11 limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray8905 Posted March 6, 2015 #5 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Why would it matter id you have the ubp? Just keep ordering, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderlust81 Posted March 6, 2015 #6 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Even with UBP it's a bigger glass to being back to your balcony, lasts longer before you need a refill! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonyte Posted March 6, 2015 #7 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I'm going to hazard a guess that once the auto tip is added it will cost more than the $11 limit. The limit is for the base/list price of the drink without added autogratuity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnLocke2012 Posted March 6, 2015 #8 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Just off the Epic. Long pours would be included up to the limit ($11.now, was $10 on my cruise). You wouldn't find one for under $11 though with gratuity. If it means that much, just get it and pay the extra $1 or $2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demonyte Posted March 6, 2015 #11 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) Just off the Epic. Long pours would be included up to the limit ($11.now, was $10 on my cruise). You wouldn't find one for under $11 though with gratuity. If it means that much, just get it and pay the extra $1 or $2. What "extra $1 or $2"? Isn't the long pour still charged as one drink that is just $2.75 more, meaning that if it goes over the limit, one must pay the drink in full. You can't pay only for the overage of the drink price if it is over the limit, unlike for example with Premium package on Celebrity. And still, as the package price already includes gratuity, autogratuity added in the POS doesn't count to the limit, it's the list price that counts.

hawkeyetlse Posted March 6, 2015 Author #12 Share Posted March 6, 2015 You wouldn't happen to have a list eh mate?You can find the list from the link I posted above. About 15 of the wines by the glass are priced at $11 or less for a long pour, so I'm hoping they are included. JohnLocke2012, did you actually experience being able to get drinks over $11 with the UBP by paying only the difference over $11? That has not been a possibility in the past AFAIK, but maybe that has also changed since March 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demonyte Posted March 7, 2015 #14 Share Posted March 7, 2015 What is a long pour? It's explained on the first post of this thread - a bigger glass of wine for fixed extra fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirty27 Posted March 7, 2015 #15 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Thank you. We have chose the UBP as our "freebie". Never even looked at the drink menus last year, so trying to get a heads up before we go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solararc Posted March 7, 2015 #16 Share Posted March 7, 2015 From another thread I didn't look that close not sure if this is relevant *Living large one week at a time* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirty27 Posted March 7, 2015 #17 Share Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) I see that soda is included in the drink package. Do you get a plastic mug, like you would if you only purchased the soda package? I like piña coladas and strawberry daiquiris. Can you ask for those. Don't think I see them in the menus. Thank you.
