John U Posted October 4, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Can someone tell me the current on-board coffee card price please? I’m trying to work out if there is any advantage in purchasing on-line before we join the Pacific Princess on the 18th October - every little saving helps [emoji106] Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JF - retired RRT Posted October 4, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 4, 2017 $35 on our sailing last month. Same price online and onboard The price difference was adjusted a couple of years ago. I'd wait till on board if you have OBC to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTNestr Posted October 4, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 4, 2017 If someone purchases a coffee card in advance how is the card delivered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdnclc Posted October 5, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Very poor deliver on Ruby for end of August for myself. Think next time will purchase when arrive. Took asking room attendant then passenger services who said ask room attendant or just buy again then ask for refund. Was also told try room service on check in day, no help. Then finally asked room attendant how do we get our cards after almost a full day, result they got us the cards to acquire. Sure would have been nice to have Latte when I boarded the ship or mid afternoon instead of time wasting asking for help. I thought ordering ahead would ease the load asking for help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow9612 Posted October 5, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Onboard, are coffee cards just purchased at any bar at any time? Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelers36 Posted October 5, 2017 #8 Share Posted October 5, 2017 If someone purchases a coffee card in advance how is the card delivered? It should be in your room upon boarding. Or at least a voucher to claim at the International Cafe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-N910W8 using Forums mobile app Go to International Cafe. Or equivalent, depending on your ship. BTW, the price is $31 + 15% gratuities = $35.65.

JF - retired RRT Posted October 5, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Onboard, are coffee cards just purchased at any bar at any time? There's usually a table in the Horizon Court or the elevator lobby outside HC on the first day. Or as others suggested...go to the IC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orders can get lost and if you have the proof in hand, it's a lot easier to fix the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Itchy&Scratchy Posted October 5, 2017 #18 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Thanks for the hint. Purchased two on EBay today. while you can use the punches for fancy coffee, you usually don't get the unlimited brewed coffee/premium tea on cards from previous cruises.

h2owatson Posted October 5, 2017 #20 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Do they have a card just for the regular brew or do you have to just get the specialty coffee card? I drink regular brew but wondered if it would just be easier to just buy each cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griller Posted October 6, 2017 #21 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Thanks for the hint. Purchased two on EBay today. They might have been mine, I had 16 on there and have sold 8 so far, they average about $24 or so, and the seller has to pay Ebay fees, Paypal fees and mailing costs .

Thrak Posted October 6, 2017 #22 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Should any of you happen to be sailing on Emerald Princess leaving this Sunday (October 8) look me up onboard. I'm taking my old coffee cards along to buy specialty coffee for random folks. We have the AIBP and won't need the cards so I figure I'll just use up all the punches on them buying drinks for other folks. I have 26 punches to use... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
