TYMAN Posted March 6, 2018 #2602 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I guess it is much more fun when you can smuggle it onboard for FREE.

Rare John&LaLa Posted March 6, 2018 #2604 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Why give double drinks? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Convenience I often do it to have a drink waiting for Laura in case I get there a few minutes before she does. I can also see the use case for a bottle of water. However in my experience the lounges, with exception of SL rarely have bottled water. If I ask for a double Bailey's in a bar I do expect to have two vouchers subtracted from my account. Also if I walk up to a bar and order drinks for both of us, I often bring Laura's card with me Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tugboat Posted March 6, 2018 #2607 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Back in the 90’s you could go into the ship’s store and purchase a bottle, cost plus 10%, for cabin consumption. Screwdrivers before I ever left the cabin. Lol!

tugboat Posted March 6, 2018 #2608 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Pre-purchase a 375ml for an outrageous price is not the same as buying a liter of Ketal One for $18 Plus 10%... Anyway, the two bottles of wine suffices the in-cabin consumption, the days of drinking the hard stuff has diminished. Ha!

Lady Hudson Posted March 6, 2018 #2609 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Why give double drinks? Sent from my iPhone using Forums I was referring to folks who like to order a drink when they are leaving the lounge who then wish to take a bottle of water or an unopened can of soda with them. Seems that practice is being discontinued — at least on this ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems that practice is being discontinued — at least on this ship. I hope not. I don't drink and only get a soda in the lounge and one when I'm leaving for dinner. I also tip a $1 for each one.

Seems that practice is being discontinued — at least on this ship. I wasn’t aware that bottled water was available in the DL/CL. I have seen it in SL. I generally just grab one from most any bar on the way back to the cabin. We have the DP. Another convenience of having the package.

We hardly ever get to the lounge, but we do stop at the bars and get our 3 D drinks in the form of a can, bottle of water etc. That is one way of getting it unopened to have it later.

He sure has a natural talent...winning the Master's is in his future I think!! :D Damn, I was hoping you were going to be on board with us on the 12/2 cruise. John and Sandy are already on board (he switched it to that week). Then we do the repeat with them on 1/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
