JAGR Posted August 3, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 3, 2018 We are sailing on Ruby Princess August 18, and we have the All-Inclusive Beverage program package. We are first timers on Princess. DW is wine drinker, and we wondered if the AIBP can be used at Vines. I assume it can be used for glasses of wine within the price limitation, but wasn't sure if it could be used for some of the lower-priced wine flights they offer. Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRUZBUDS Posted August 3, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 3, 2018 We (and others) get glasses of wine from Vines to carry in the MDR. Just let the waiter know and you'll get it in a regular glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAGR Posted August 3, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I was wondering about the flights, since they say one drink at a time. Glad they think that a flight is one drink, not three! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
