Adult drinks

[golfer1903]

Every day they offer on board the ships a drink of the day.  What do they cost and is that with the tax and tip or is that extra.

 

Also how do I put gift cards on my sail card to help pay for these and my automatic gratuities  that are charged per room can I add to my card from home or have to do on the ship

Thanks

They'll put the gratuity right on the drink tab. You can contact carnival + prepay gratuities, we always do. Otherwise, they'll be added to your sail n sign acct the moment you board.

BTW, those prepaid gratuities don't apply to the bar.

there is only tax if you order a drink whilie in port. At sea no tax, just tip.

 

I only went to the bar that has brunch and only mimosa was $9 or less. I didnt think of asking for the drink of the day. Ordered a boody mary which was $10.99. 

 

there were some drinks for 9.25 in the comedy club listed like rum punch or you could get a pitcher of rum punch that was enough for 4 drinks.

 

if you order a drink of the day in a take home glass I thought it was $2 extra, but could be $1 i forget, so be sure to order it in a regular glass or you will pay extra.

 

Just got home last sunday and we thought drink prices were high. sorry i didn get the down low specifically on drink of the day. Mostly we saw them quoted with the special take home glasses.

 

PS we didnt get tips added until almost the last sea day to our onboard accts. Id been checking my acct in one of those red kiosks. 

 

what kind of gift cards do you have. I see it says they take carnval gift cards of all types onboard, but i know they didnt used to take like visa cards that didnt have your name preprinted on them.

 

you just say gift cards, id say it depends.

As for gift cards, you can add them at guest services or at the kiosk.  I brought gift cards on our last cruise and the process was smooth with no hiccups.
