Rare KYBOB Posted February 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Ok may have missed this discussion on the Unlimited Soda cards. I first booked our upcoming trip like 6 months ago I selected the Unlimited Soda & More Package and it was then put in my 'cart'. I just checked our reservation and it is now listed as "Out of Stock" ??? Ok this seems a bit much I booked this 6 months ago and selected the card then so how is it out of stock when it is just a sticker on my card. Or did they run out of sodas?? Stickers?? Or is the word getting around that this is a real good deal and they are loosing money on the cards?? What is up?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishywood Posted March 1, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The original Unlimited Soda-only package that would have still been available when you booked has been discontinued. The Unlimited Soda and More remains but the description has changed, which is why if you added it to your cart six months ago but didn't finalize the purchase you may need to delete your old selection and go back and choose the "new" version in your personalizer. Hopefully that will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MrSchwump Posted March 1, 2016 #3 Share Posted March 1, 2016 It's not a big deal. Just wait until you get on board. There will be tables set up in all public areas the first day or 2 selling the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KYBOB Posted March 2, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Thanks for the replies. I clicked the remove and then selected the new one and it worked. So now I am happy, was having a mild caffeine withdrawal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two4Texas Posted March 2, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 2, 2016 If you purchase the soda and more on-line ahead of time do you still get a souvenir drink cup when you board the ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennybenny Posted March 2, 2016 #6 Share Posted March 2, 2016 If you purchase the soda and more on-line ahead of time do you still get a souvenir drink cup when you board the ship? Yes, you still get the cup when you buy on the ship. If you prepay you get the cup delivered to your stateroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super cheap!! Now you have to get the bigger soda package, that's the one my kids always get and my husband thinks they get their money's worth with their mocktails and sodas... In the end, I just prefer to not get the nickel and diming because we pre pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they only now offer is the soda and more package which is what you describe in your second paragraph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishywood Posted March 2, 2016 #9 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Yes, you still get the cup when you buy on the ship. If you prepay you get the cup delivered to your stateroom The statement that the Soda and More includes a souvenir cup has been removed from the description of the package in both the cruise personalizer and the gifts & services order form. There have been reports on here since last fall of not receiving one from some ships; I guess it is like the milkshakes: if the ships still has them to give you may get lucky, or not.

I already have two of the souvenir glasses so if they don't have anymore it's not a big loss for me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crochetcruise Posted March 2, 2016 #11 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Yes, you still get the cup when you buy on the ship. If you prepay you get the cup delivered to your stateroom THANK YOU1 I was puzzled about that myself. Planning to pre-purchase as much as possible, and cost what I cannot-mainly Cocktails and a Lotus Spa Treatment. I have the price, but the Lotus Spa credit won't entirely cover it. I could allow extra On Board Credit to cover the cost and tip, that is the easiest option, now I've had a chance to think calmly. I love coming on Cruise Critic, I can feel myself relaxing as the website loads! 36 weeks and 2 days until Embarkation Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Soda and More package is the only package shown on their little sign on the tables on boarding day, but the soda only package is available if you ask for it. This may not be the situation on all ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
