cruiseintoheaven Posted October 25, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Just a quick question before our Nov. cruise......DH loves seltzer water, just bubbly water from the soda fountain....anyone know if it's free or part of a soda package? He doesn't drink other sodas so trying to decide on purchaseing soda package or not. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted October 26, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Not free. If it is fountain dispensed (not in a can), it is a part of the soda package. You can check at any bar once you board to see it is dispensed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted October 26, 2015 #3 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) If you don't have a soda package, they will charge a small fee per glass. If they frequent one or two bars, and tip well, they may not charge at all...or minimally. Edited October 26, 2015 by cb at sea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishywood Posted October 26, 2015 #7 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Or you could bring your own. OP said her husband specifically prefers fountain soda water, not canned. And as much as I generally avoid advocating "rule bending" I agree with the advice that befriending the staff in one of the bars will likely get him served a free glass of soda water as it takes longer for the server to ring it up than to pull it and serve it.

Takes just as long to serve a Coke and they will charge you for that even though it also takes longer to ring that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted October 26, 2015 #9 Share Posted October 26, 2015 It is not free. And costs more than 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseintoheaven Posted October 26, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Thanks guys for the replies. Got a chuckle at the image of bringing our own, not because it's a silly or bad idea, but DH goes through about 12 cans a day, so you can imagine the wagon we'd be pulling up the gangway if we did so....oh well, will likely get the soda package and not hassle worry about it [emoji4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drink soda but put away a lot of seltzer so I purchased the soda card! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
