jrmende63 Posted February 14, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Hi, I have looked on the search but can't find a recent posting that tells what drink prices are. We are sailing our first RC ship, Empress of the Seas, and have some OBC. I am thinking of using the OBC to get a drink package. But I can't find the prices of the drinks ( beer, wine and mixed drinks) to see if it is feasible to use the OBC or not. Thanks for the information!

Wine starts at $8 per glass and goes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattInFLL Posted February 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2016 With the recent increases in drink prices, I think they are pushing people to the packages. When it was around $8 for a decent brand drink, I could see why some would not get a package. But now that it's closer to $12, I would think even the moderate drinkers have reason to consider it.

Mom.to.2 Posted February 15, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Do they still offer a drink of the day? If so, what does that cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 15, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Do they still offer a drink of the day? If so, what does that cost? Yes, we've seen the drink of the day on recent cruises, and it's no deal anymore. Cost varies. We've seen it for $10 to $12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted February 15, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I had the premium package on Enchantment in December. Folks, you have to remember that the packages only cover drinks up to $10 per cocktail and wine up to $12 per glass. So Enchantment made all their cocktails $10.95, and yes, I was charged the .95 difference. Only basic stuff like Rum 'n Cokes came under the $10. Without the package a Rum 'n Coke would cost $8.14 (something like that), gratuity included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife had the package on those ships in December and January and the cocktail limit was $12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted February 15, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Yes, we've seen the drink of the day on recent cruises, and it's no deal anymore. Cost varies. We've seen it for $10 to $12. Without pulling out my Compasses, not all Drinks of the Day are that much. They still have some in the single digit range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattInFLL Posted February 15, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 15, 2016 ??? I have never been charged extra for any drink I have ordered on the package. And I drink the good stuff. So this just sounds weird to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus ATC Posted February 15, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 15, 2016 On our recent cruise the only place we were "upcharged" for wine was in Giovanni's. No hint of an upcharge in the MDR even though we were consistently ordering $15 wines. I think the limit on our cruise was $14 (grats included) as it was an AU based cruise.
