okie81 Posted February 27, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I've noticed on the dinner menus in the main dining room there are drinks listed. Are these included with Cheers packages or paid separate? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenn1974 Posted February 27, 2019 #3 Share Posted February 27, 2019 One thing I suggest is before you go to dinner order a drink from a bar and carry it in with you. Drink service in the dining room can be a little slow. Then order the drink for with your meal when they come around. But to answer your question they are included with Cheers. They will bring you a wine list and there is typically a drink of the day on the menu. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schazzy Posted February 27, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Yep, included, expect for those shooters in the souvenir shot glasses they sometimes come around with, they are not included. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jwglenn25 Posted February 27, 2019 #5 Share Posted February 27, 2019 agreed^ Those specialty shooters are not included with cheers because they come with the "souvenir shot glass" anything you order from the bar while at dinner will be included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We love those shooters and glasses. We have way more than we'll ever use, but keep getting them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drink is included but the glass is not. You can drink the shooter and give the glass back. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I didn't know that, I never got one, I just assumed because they were in a souvenir glass they wouldn't be included in Cheers. Learn something new all the time on here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ugagal07 Posted February 28, 2019 #10 Share Posted February 28, 2019 One thing we enjoy in the dining room with Cheers is to trust the waiter/waitress to pair a drink with each of our courses. We find a good wait staff team and request them every night. Natalia on the Miracle was wonderful in December. Great way to be open and try new things, DH and I each tried new things. They know what is included in the package and keep you under the price limit. She asked our preferences and we let her surprise us. It is a fun experience. We also enjoy a bottle or 2 of San Pelligrino with dinner, also a part of Cheers. 🙂 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy4Camping Posted February 28, 2019 #11 Share Posted February 28, 2019 If you tell the wait staff that there is a certain drink or whatever that you want each night, they will make sure it is there. The group across from us always had a plate of lime wedges and extra butter servings. I found out they requested these to be there. A couple near us walked in to wine at their table every night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JStarbrite Posted March 3, 2019 #12 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I noticed the servers are not that motivated to get you a drink when you have the Cheers package. You do pay an 18% tip on the card, but I don't know how it is distributed. I got much better service when I paid for each drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not right, your not getting it for free... But yeah, there really needs to be an educational moment here with SOME OF THE Staff, that you paid for your package, whether bubbles or CHEERS!

Tierlifer Posted March 10, 2019 #14 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I always made up for port days that evening with my Cheers package. I think the Cheers package is absolutely worth it if you drink enough and for peace of mind. Won't ever cruise without it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcpagejr Posted March 10, 2019 #15 Share Posted March 10, 2019 We always purchase Cheers and after 1st night, once our waiter knew our beverage of choice, our drinks were waiting each night. Plus whenever my drink was half empty...he brought another. had atleast 3 drinks each night at dinner...thanks to our waiter...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing that the MDR servers aren't getting tipped on what 3/4s of everything they deliver, why would this be any different? Do they not care to serve you your appetizers? They don't make the drinks. The current system is just inefficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPYRCRUISER Posted March 28, 2019 #19 Share Posted March 28, 2019 when we have Cheers, we get a drink to bring into dinner, then order a glass of wine for our meal. the best part is getting cappuccino with our dessert. It used to be included way back when, now you have to pay. That's where I feel Cheers pays dividends, the Coffee Bar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
