justcrusn Posted March 15, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 15, 2018 although nothing advertises it, when I check prices on our April 15 Eclipse cruise beverage prices are discounted about 25%! Classic is $41 per day and premium is $48. At that price, go premium! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramona760 Posted March 15, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 15, 2018 We have the classic beverage package as a perk. How much would it be to upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalypso333 Posted March 15, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Just got the premium drink package for a 15 night repositioning cruise (drink package not included) for $48 pp per night. Saved us $500. Now is the time to buy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzmund Posted March 15, 2018 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Just checked for our April 23rd Equinox sailing, no sale on beverage packages.:loudcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cykim7 Posted March 15, 2018 #7 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Celebrity newbie here.. so apologies for the silly question.. Are the non-alcoholic packages on sale too? If so, do you just add it to your cart on the Cruise Planner and Check out? I tried doing that and it just shows the full price... TIA PS - perhaps this is not applicable to all sailings? I am on the Silhouette on Mar 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdn_tbird Posted March 15, 2018 #13 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Just checked our Nov 2018 Silhouette sailing and prices for the alcohol packages are definite lower but there is no sale banner like in the past. Could it be possible that this might be the new normal price? Wish they would put the non-alcoholic packages on sale too. Already have a drink package for everyone but one of my kids.

Bluebury Posted March 15, 2018 #14 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Thanks for this, but for me to work out whether it is value to us I could do with knowing how much the drinks actually cost. I know that I have seen it on here once but cannot find it now. Coffee, water, teas, wine, spirits, sodas etc if we bought on board. Hope that someone can point me in the right direction.

Ramblin Wreck Cruiser Posted March 15, 2018 #16 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I just looked at our June 2, 2018 Equinox cruise and noticed these sale prices as well. We already have the Classic package included. I wonder if the upgrade to Premium would be the difference in these sale prices, which is $7.50 plus gratuities. Or would it still be $10 plus gratuities? Has anyone tried to do this yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks You should be able to get an idea of pricing from these two links. Be aware that they are over a year old, so you can assume X has made some pricing "adjustments" (and nothing ever goes down in price). But these should be close. http://www.thepreismans.com/eclipse_so_car_menus.htm and https://goo.gl/photos/kbWoo3hRLaURB3LU6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchdiva Posted March 15, 2018 #18 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Checked on March 2019 cruise on Reflection and some dining pkgs are on sale, premium beverage pkg is buy one get one half off, etc. Definitely worth checking out! We booked 6 night dining pkg for less than the cost of 5 day pkg! Gotta love this site!! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TickledBlue Posted March 15, 2018 #19 Share Posted March 15, 2018 We have the classic beverage package as a perk. How much would it be to upgrade? Upgrades are not reduced in price, they are $11.80 pp/day on my upcoming sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yvonneh Posted March 15, 2018 #21 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Thank you for posting this!! If I could only upgrade online, as I have the classic package as a perk. It will only allow me to put the total price for a on sale premium package in my cart, rather than the upgraded difference. :confused: I guess I will call. Either way, this is great news!

Ian21 Posted March 15, 2018 #22 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I’ve also noticed that internet package is cheaper today than when I booked it last year. So cancelled and rebooked and saved £10. Also some of the longer dining packages are showing 20% off - a 6 night package is cheaper than a 5 night one on my 12 day cruise at the moment.

Selion Posted March 15, 2018 #23 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Just got off the phone with Celebrity. Upgrade from Classic to Premium is still $11.80 per day per person during this sale. The reasoning - The Classic package is "complimentary" and we still need to pay the difference between Classic and Premium, even though the Premium on sale costs less than the comp'd Classic. Still, the math doesn't work out since the cost difference is now $8.85 with 18% grats included. I'll just upgrade on the ship then. At least the bartender will get some extra in his/her next paycheck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will still call, because I have had many experiences with calling X and getting different answers depending on who you are speaking with.
