tempus137 Posted December 12, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Does anyone know the cost of soda from the bars? We are on the April 2018 TA on the Bliss. My DW doesn't drink enough to warrant getting the UBP as a promo, so my drinking is going to be a la carte. She usually has some tonic water a couple of times a day. The soda package is $7.50 a day (plus the 20% service charge). So I'm trying to figure out how many tonics she has to drink to make the package pay.

dexddd Posted December 12, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I'm working from memory (so subject to error) but $2.95 plus the surcharge for a can. You may want to do a bit more searching if you are particular about can vs. 2L soda or gun soda as the soda plan is probably going to be the latter.

gambit57 Posted December 12, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 12, 2017 They ever have sales or promotions for this, or is it best to just buy it the second you're on the ship? And where do you buy it? I really wish we could buy it online early without making the whole cabin purchase some drink package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do not need to make a mad rush to get it, they are not limited in number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can purchase just the soda package for your wife but you must call NCL to override the system. You would think they would fix that "bug" but they haven't.

Sauer-kraut Posted December 12, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I am thinking Tonic Water isn't included with the soda package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually they may have finally fixed the glitch making the whole cabin purchase the soda package. MyNCL just let me add only one soda package to our reservation and get to the payment page so it appears you can now purchase just one online at MyNCL.

REV_Cruiser Posted December 13, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 13, 2017 If you purchased a Soda Package prior to your cruise, does that person receive a thermal mug? Or is it only if purchased on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still get the thermal cup....just ask where they are selling the soda package onboard and they will give you one. Your card will already have the soda package annotated on the card so they know you paid ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambit57 Posted December 13, 2017 #11 Share Posted December 13, 2017 What about juices? I see it's included on the UBP, but not in the soda package. Google showed a flyer saying you could add it for $3 to the soda package, but it was clearly an old flyer. NCL.com doesn't have anything I could find.
