AidenL Posted June 19, 2016 #26 Share Posted June 19, 2016 If Premium covers up to 13 dollars per drink, what does Classic cover up to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyocean1959 Posted June 19, 2016 #27 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Classic package covers beers up to $6, liquor up to $8 and wine up to $9. Premium package covers anything up to $13. If something that costs over $13, with the premium package you pay the difference plus gratuity. If you order something over the limit on classic package you pay the full cost.

Johnnyocean1959 Posted June 19, 2016 #29 Share Posted June 19, 2016 You can do it ahead of time if you want. Either call or I've heard you can do it online. I like to get as much done before hand as possible, that's me. Your sea pass will indicate Premium. If you have a lot of OBC you may want to wait till you get on board. There will be ship personnel ready to upgrade and sell you extras you as soon as you get there! Or you can do it at any bar. They will put a premium sticker on your sea pass.

Johnnyocean1959 Posted June 19, 2016 #30 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Doing a 10 day on Equinox Thanksgiving week. Two Sunday sea days, so I'll be there watching football and drinking good beers! Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkjretired Posted June 19, 2016 #31 Share Posted June 19, 2016 Just an FYI, the drink package is good at any bar on the ship. The only thing it does not cover is room service drink orders and the items in the fridge in your room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thmpsn Posted June 19, 2016 #32 Share Posted June 19, 2016 (edited) If you guys want something besides beer at night, the whiskey tasting (Irish and scotch) are the best deal on the ship. Incredible old whiskey, 3 shots for $20. Drink pkg does not apply. Jim Edited June 19, 2016 by thmpsn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Don't forget the 3 games on Thanksgiving Day! Vikings @ Lions 12:30 Redskins @ Cowboys 4:30 Steelers @ Colts 8:30 FYI: The bar did not open till ( I think ) 2:00, the game was on, but no sound. It took 20-30 minutes to get someone in there to get it turned on. Edited June 20, 2016 by wallie5446 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallie5446 Posted July 25, 2016 #37 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Is the Gastrobar open when boarding on Embarkation day? Yes. I'll look at the Daily when I get home tonight for the exact time, 3 or 4. They have a display of most of the beers on a table. EW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other Ships the craft beer an food offerings are located at the Passport Bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallie5446 Posted July 25, 2016 #40 Share Posted July 25, 2016 All this talk about the GastroBar made us want to be there! So we booked the Equinox again for Nov 2017! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinyork Posted July 25, 2016 #41 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Here's a link to the menu, I'm looking forward to it in November! http://media.celebritycruises.com/celebrity/content/en_US/pdf/gastrobar-menu.pdf If you have the premium you only pay the difference, plus gratuity. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Not sure if it's the same on other ships but the prices on that menu have increased on Eclipse. The large plates are $10. However it's rarely frequented due to its weird implementation on Eclipse where it appears only at the passport bar on sea days and few know about it. Seems to be, like Bistro on Five, if it's not working, up the cost. Our friends on Eclipse last year tried it and waited nearly an hour for food. Not a great experience.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk I have read and heard this from quite a few people here and on a couple other Celebrity groups I am in. The Equinox design is great! And the 4-5 big screen TV's, are better to see than the ones in the casino. The burger and flat breads are well worth the added cost, even over the mast grill burgers included with the cruise.
