hihosilvers Posted January 3, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Just booked an Aurea suite with whirlpool. A bit confused about the all-inclusive drinks. The fine print says the following: *Depending on cruise destination, the drinks package may be either All-Inclusive Restaurant & Bar Drink Package or All-Inclusive Classic Drink Package. Can someone confirm that this is all-inclusive drinks, anywhere, anytime (I know it excludes room service and minibar) - or is this all-inclusive drinks only at mealtime in MDR? Thanks in advance.

sidari Posted January 3, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Aurea comes with All Inclusive Classic drink package, for the mini bar and higher end brands you have to upgrade to the Deluxe package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with Aurea, you can order a drink anywhere you want, show your card, and off you go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skier52 Posted January 4, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 4, 2018 So with Aurea, you can order a drink anywhere you want, show your card, and off you go? yes but not those items with one or two red asterisks next to them on the drinks list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg898 Posted January 4, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Is there a detailed comparison yet between what the classic and the deluxe packages get you on the Seaside? And how easy is it to upgrade to the deluxe package? Should I just wait until I'm onboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolina Girl 99 Posted January 5, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Is there a detailed comparison yet between what the classic and the deluxe packages get you on the Seaside? And how easy is it to upgrade to the deluxe package? Should I just wait until I'm onboard? The link below shows the different brands included with each package. If you are looking to upgrade from the classic to the premium package, it is $8 pp/pd or $56/week per adult and can be done before sailing or on-board from what I've read http://www.msccruisesgetforms.com/cms/CMSIMAGES/FLYER/drinks/classicvspremium.PDF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hihosilvers Posted January 18, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Can anyone comment on how the minibar works with the deluxe package? I know it says minibar is included, but does that mean you can basically empty it out every day (drinks/snacks) and they will refill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidari Posted January 18, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 18, 2018 You have to fill in the paperwork and sign it or it will not get refilled, anything you use will be replaced, you can also request more of an item you like in replacement for those you don't.

Summer1961 Posted January 22, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Can someone tell me what specialty coffees are included and if the Classic package also includes gelato? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travellightly Posted January 22, 2018 #11 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Can someone tell me what specialty coffees are included and if the Classic package also includes gelato? Gelato is included & delicious. Most coffees, espresso, cappuccino, hot chocolate & milkshakes etc at Venchi bar were included. Some of the specialized coffees with alcohol were not included.
