apk1389 Posted January 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Any of have any experience with this or advice? I am Diamond plus and do not purchase the drink package because I will only have a drink or two at night with my diamond drinks. My friend(who is in my room) coming normally buys the drink package, how do we go about this. If I say for personal reasons I do not want the package, will this affect the diamond drinks. Any advice, I could not find anything in the threads with this situation Edited January 31, 2018 by apk1389 clarify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 31, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Your drinks won't be affected, but if the other person is in YOUR cabin, both of you must buy the package. Your friend can buy as they want as they go....you don't NEED a package to get any drink! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any advice, I could not find anything in the threads with this situation You cannot get out of the package "for personal reasons". If you do not drink at all, that is one thing - but you do drink so that would not apply to you. I would suggest your friend just pay as they go. Unfortunately it is all the dishonest people out there that caused this situation. Frustrating for sure - but unfortunately dishonest people don't really care how their actions affect anyone else.

CruisinCons Posted January 31, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Royal has been requiring that the 2nd person, the one requesting the exemption, purchase the refreshment package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted January 31, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) Royal has been requiring that the 2nd person, the one requesting the exemption, purchase the refreshment package. Several people have reported that they have been allowed to buy just the soda package. Edited January 31, 2018 by Ourusualbeach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoGurl Posted January 31, 2018 #13 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I would consider buying the sofa package, but only on the ships with the freestyle machines because there’s more color choices than just your basic colors at the bar.

Sent from my iPhone using Forums I like the sofa package because I don't have to worry about chair hogs. I just get a sofa from the freestyle machine and plop it down by the pool. Problem solved.

marci22 Posted January 31, 2018 #16 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Are we allowed to share the sofa with others who don't have the package? I don't think they would say anything if you were just sitting there quietly. They might be more vigilant the first night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slvrbllt Posted January 31, 2018 #17 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Do they have places to store my sofas overnight? Or do I just throw it overboard when I'm done with it and get a new one the next day? I don't think it will fit in my room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoGurl Posted January 31, 2018 #21 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Are we allowed to share the sofa with others who don't have the package? Oooo, that’s a tough one. Maybe if you buy a single seat sofa, then no. But if you buy a sofa with several seats then it would be treated like a bottle of wine, and you could share.

I thought you had to check the sofas back in at the same place you check the towels back in. Otherwise you might get charged a missing sofa fee.

Otherwise you might get charged a missing sofa fee. But isn’t the whole point of the sofa package that you can try out a new sofa, but throw it overboard if you don’t like it? I suppose I can see incurring a $25 “overboard” fee for polluting the oceans (credit to Molly361 whom I forgot to quote for the overboard fee comment) (since we want to “save the waves” and everything), but they can’t just go around charging fees to people for missing sofas, especially when you have the package.
