Rare LMaxwell Posted February 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Would you be ok to pay a nominal $5-10 fee to bring a case of water onboard? I know people try and do now, but it is technically prohibited. Would you rather they allowed it but charged you a handling fee and therefore not have to think about whether this port or this ship allows it vs a different one?

Clarea Posted February 25, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I'd be fine with a nominal fee to being on water. I would prefer if they just sold us a case of water for $10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted February 25, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I'd be fine with a nominal fee to being on water. I would prefer if they just sold us a case of water for $10. They would probably say it would be cost prohibitive for them. But you hauling it on board and just pay a $10 tax is more in line with their thinking. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 25, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 25, 2018 No...I wouldn't. I'm ok with the water on the ship. It's the same stuff that's in those bottles! Water is H2O...and that's what is in the taps on the ship, and in those pricey bottles! Your food, beverages and ice are all made with ship's water! I won't pay for something that is readily available and perfectly fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted February 25, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Carnival 12 pack waiting in your room is in the $5-6 range so 24 case for $10 to be waiting in room and not lugging yourself strikes me as reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love it if Royal would offer that. I thought that was a smart move by Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatbush Flyer Posted February 25, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Yet another reason to look at premium and luxury lines where the Pellegrino is replenished at your request for no additional charge. If you purchase all sorts of optional add-ons with that mass market line, you may want to do a comparative bottom line spreadsheet comparison for "net daily rate" that includes all anticipated expenses. You will be very surprised. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a great reply LMax. Well done. It's almost better that she doesn't return to threads that she already posted in. If I'm ever fortunate enough to sail with her, I'm going to send a case of water and a WOW band to her room just to see her head explode. Back on topic - I would also love to see Royal follow Carnival's lead and offer a case for like $10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted February 25, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Not interested. But would be worth it and a lot more convenient than lugging a case of water to the terminal. Most of the time we purchase the BP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LMaxwell Posted February 25, 2018 Author #19 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Yes but since it’s technically against the rules they can deny you bringing it on; by them selling it w a nominal delivery fee it eliminates the whole “a.m. I buying this to throw it away” question and saves you from lugging your own.

shellunderwater Posted February 25, 2018 #20 Share Posted February 25, 2018 If I don't get the drink package, I'd gladly pay $10 for a case of water. One less thing to deal with when flying in. Not sure I'd go much higher than that. Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firegirl042 Posted February 25, 2018 #22 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I would pay for the option if it stayed about $10. It's one less thing to juggle in the port. Sent from my SM-G950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
