suekay Posted June 13, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 13, 2015 My friend and I have just booked a last minute cruise on Spirit and have a couple of questions. I can't get the search function to work and have trawled through the past 12 pages but cant find the answers. So..... When we check the bags in at the airport, do we next see them in the cabin or do we have to collect them at the airport in Dalaman and put them on the coach? Are the plug sockets in the cabin US, European or UK? Is there wifi onboard? If so, what is the approximate cost? We're not getting the drinks package as we won't drink £199pp per week, but is there any sort of soft drinks package? Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You collect them at the airport and put them on the coach- 1 1/2 hour journey to the port Are the plug sockets in the cabin US, European or UK? both eu and us take a extentsion lead very useful Is there wifi onboard? If so, what is the approximate cost? - expensive and very slow- find free wifi in the ports We're not getting the drinks package as we won't drink £199pp per week, but is there any sort of soft drinks package?- soft drinks package are only for children Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campolady Posted June 14, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) We're not getting the drinks package as we won't drink £199pp per week We too have booked a last minute cruise with Thomson (on the Dream not Spirit). However, despite the Drinks Package being £199* per person we have booked it as, even though throughout the day we mainly have soft drinks, we are hoping that the weather is hot enough for us to need plenty of those and the cost soon mounts up. *By adding the Drinks Package to our cabin price our total was over £999 making us eligible for a £50 discount that was being offered on June, July and August bookings; this bought the DP price down to £348 for the 2 of us. As we hope to be on board before lunch and won't disembark until late afternoon on departure day we will get the best part of 8 days drinks which only works out at £21.75 per person per day and at least we won't be worrying about how much we are spending every time we fancy another drink.

That's a bargain if you enjoy a drink. I don't drink any alcohol or coffee, so would find it difficult to drink even £175 worth of soft drinks in 8 days. Enjoy your cruise:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
