Has anyone regretted NOT buying the drink package?

In the Diamond Lounge.

 

(I guess I really should have figured that one out myself. :D)

 

But you mean like lattes, cappuccinos, etc?? Like we get at Promenade Cafe and Latte-tudes?

Hmmm! If Diamond can go to the CL and DL can Suite guests go to the DL too?

Diamond cannot go to the CL, you must be Diamond Plus to have access to the CL.

 

Suite guests can only go to the DL if they are Diamond level or higher.

We get all the drinks we want in the diamond lounge for free.

Correct: Latte, Cappucino, and Espresso.

Yes, it's usually the same exact machine in the CL and DL.

Excellent! Thanks again, Bob! :)

 

(sigh) Someday I'll join you all in the CL or DL or SL or whatever it is.

 

 

Since many people put diamonds in their profiles to show status, I've changed my picture to gold for all of us lowly gold level cruisers! :D

Oh! Don't worry I'm only a lonely Platinum..... Maybe one day between cruising RCCL and Princess I'll get there.... I'm about the same status on Princess..... lol

Actually booked a GS for a Med cruise while ON the Allure. Had to change itineraries and room type after DD was born. (It usually changes everything.) But she loved her Accessible Promenade Stateroom on FOS.

 

Maybe next time. That's a LOT of money - especially while trying to keep my Vegas statuses up to date.

 

I'll keep my drink packages and my small room. :D

Well I'm sure those passengers that didn't take advantage of the Ultimate Package priced at just $24 per day will be regretting it now that the price has recently been increased to $92 per day! The difference is nearly four times the originally promotion price for our 18-night cruise to Hong Kong next April!

[hollykimalan]

$92! Oh, my.

Never seen it for $24.Now that would of been a great deal.As its about $24 for the Royal Replenish on our cruise next year.

Currently on the Legend it is $42.00 US dollars plus 18% gratuity, Verified it yesterday at both pool bar, windjammer cafe and guest services.

We are looking at over $3,000 (Australian) to get the top drinks package. That's for three kids and three adults. I want to have that freedom but this seems like a lot of money....

You wouldn't be getting the ultimate package for the kids (they can't drink alcohol). Instead they would get the Royal Replenish at 30.36 AUD per day if they are tea coffee drinkers or the Royal Refreshment at 11.04 AUD per day which is the soft drink package

lol That would be good parenting right there!

It would nearer $6000 if I had the kids on the ultimate.

$96 per adult x3 x10 days = $2880 Aus.

It's still seems a lot of money...but the prices of drink I see has increased? So it might make sense. I don't want to be worried about a large bill or having to 'careful'....we are on Holiday!

[CaribSailor]

Was just on Indy and didn't buy the package prior to departure. I ordered 1 margarita on day 1 to the tune of 15$+ with gratuity. Went right over and bought the premium package and never looked back. Only took 5 drinks a day to break even.

Speaks to me greatly.

So that would be covered with the Premium Package? It must be nice to not have to worry about it...

Yup not a problem. Had both the patron perfect and grand margarita with the premium package. Even had glasses of wine that were 14-16$ with no extra charge in Chops, Giovanni's and vintages.

Nice. We love our wine at the table. We'll just need to get used to getting it by the glass. I gather that there is a decent selection of by-the-glass wine available.

Yes plenty. With the package you also get 20% off bottles. We stayed with by the glass, my glass was never empty, service was great.
