holdon216 Posted December 12, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Hello All, We will be purchasing a case of water beforehand. 24 pack will be to much water and 12 pack will not be enough. What is the price plus i assume a gratuity for a one liter bottle if purchased on board The Jade? TY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbryan5 Posted December 12, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) Do you mean purchasing on board? Unfortunately you can't bring your own water anymore Edited December 12, 2018 by bbryan5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bring a refillable water bottle. Use a glass to refill due to sanitary reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlcardsfan79 Posted December 12, 2018 #5 Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) I pre ordered the 12 1 liter bottles to be delivered to our cabin it was $33.54 (that includes tax and gratuity). A lot of people complain about the price but compared to what the airport charge I don't think it's too bad and considering they are liter bottles.

You actually stated that you were going to purchase a case beforehand, not on board. You then asked the price to purchase a single bottle on board. That's what confused me.

I believe that your estimate is too low, and that a 1 litre bottle of water on board is somewhere between $4.50 and $5.00 + 20% gratuities (if I remember correctly). To OP: It is also possible to purchase a 6-pack of 1- litre water bottle (not only the larger 12- or 24-pack). Price for a 6-pack is $17.94 incl. gratuities.

Stlcardsfan79 Posted December 12, 2018 #10 Share Posted December 12, 2018 When we were on the Pearl in feb they were selling the 1 liter bottles, I think it was about the same price as what I had paid on line but you could purchase them individually in the buffet. You could order the 12 then buy more if you need to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEasyCC Posted December 12, 2018 #11 Share Posted December 12, 2018 We thought the same, 12 is not enough, but 24 will probably be too many. Ordered the 24 1 liters anyway. Rather have too much, than not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kskelley40 Posted December 12, 2018 #12 Share Posted December 12, 2018 If you are a gambler, they will give you water in the casino. Whenever I order a drink, granted I always have the drink package, I also order a bottle water. Every time. At the end of the night, I just take the left over waters to the cabin. They are smaller than ones you would buy but they get the job done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself, I will pay $3.50 a day to have bottled water in my room. I know it's a little extravagant but hey I'm on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timf2001 Posted December 16, 2018 #19 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I noticed Norwegian changed the image they use for the bottled water from Aquafina to what looks like a house brand water. Has anyone actually observed a change in product onboard or is it just to give them flexibility in brand provided? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted December 16, 2018 #20 Share Posted December 16, 2018 On one of our cruises this year, I was getting bottles of aqua panna instead of Aquafina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdon216 Posted December 16, 2018 Author #21 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Thank you all. To clarify I am aware that you cannot bring your own water onboard. We will be on a 11 day Panama cruise. So my conflict is do I pre purchase the 12 pack and not have enough or go with the 24 pack and probably have to much. I’m leaning towards the 24 pack. I thought if single bottles were reasonably priced I could pre purchase the 12 pack and buy single bottles while on board. As for the ships water it bothers my sensitive stomach so that wouldn’t work. Thank goodness the ice in the drinks I can tolerate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holdon216 Posted December 16, 2018 Author #22 Share Posted December 16, 2018 And if they switched to a non brand from Aquafina that’s just wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just off the Gem....I was very surprised to find that the NEW bottled water is "NCL Ultra Premium"...and it is NOT spring water...but rather "purified still water" !!!!! Glad I was not paying for it. I am wondering if the actually bottle it onboard with ship water...I surely doubt they pay to bring it in.. I received 2 bottles in room (Platinum Plus) and yes...got them free in casino. All were...the small size..In the past , the ones in room were liter size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottled water (and Red Bull) are covered under the casino drink card, not under the UBP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
