I would fine tune that and say they aren't servicing them well perhaps. I know for the first time since I've been on a ship with them, I won't be buying that package on my next trip. Part of that is because on Jewel there was only 2 machines in the very back of the Windjammer and when that was closed they turned the machines off.

 

Just off the Jewel this morning. I was very disappointed with the machines.

 

On day one both machines were out of order. On day 2 one of the machines was working but only had 4 options for caffeine free. The other machine was out of order all week.

 

I like to get the drink package so i can get creme soda with vanilla.

 

The Jewel is a port intensive cruise right now with only 1 sea day and as mentioned by BillOh the Windjammer closes at 9:30pm so you have no access to the machines after that.

 

Other than that our cruise was great and now i need a vacation to rest up from our vacation.:classic_tongue:

Anyone know if the newest updates to Navigator will include Freestyle machines (if they aren't on there yet)? I saw a post above that said there was none on board as of 2015.

 

That level of detail is not revealed publicly by the cruise line.

Bill, not sure if you are still planning on keeping this updated but on Allure they have removed the one from the arcade.  There is still one in the Wipeout cafe.  We were aboard at Christmas.

The "status" of the freestyle machines on every ship we've been on the past couple years is "disgraceful".  Half of them are out of order half the time.  When they are working, often half the flavors are unavailable.  RCCL needs to either figure out how to maintain them or get rid of them,

We had 4 mugs on our last cruise.  2 refreshment and 2 soda and internet.  Didn’t use the machines once.  The kids used it the first couple cruises but hate carrying the mugs around.

I certainly understand your sentiment.  When I first reported how bad the machines were on Allure in 2013, most people said it was just a bad week.    I've had mostly good cruises with them.

With a beverage package, you will only have access to fountain soda choices, usually Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Ginger Ale, Soda Water, and Tonic Water.

 

If you are willing to purchase cans (not included with any package), they you will have many more choices.

 

how much is a can?

Does anyone know if Fuse Meyer Lemon Black Tea (a Coke product) or Coke LIfe is available on these machines (Anthem of the Seas)?

https://www.coca-colaproductfacts.com/en/faq/reduced-no-sugar-substitutes/what-drinks-contain-stevia/

 

I'm familiar with Coke Life (usually a green logo?)  But I haven't noticed it available. Sometimes I'll fill up on Coke Zero and add a splash of regular coke.

Thanks.  I was trying to see if any of the beverages had stevia instead of artificial sweeteners (as in the beverages I mentioned), but I suppose that is doubtful, since stevia is generally a bit more expensive

Ah, yes, I have seen Coke life, but had forgotten what it was outside of its calorie count.   Thanks.
