I will probably only be having one baileys a day to upcharge so shouldn't cost too much lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm onboard the Infinity on Saturday. I will look at the prices and see what the difference is - I would bet that it isn't much. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pd7277 Posted March 24, 2019 #32 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) As to the smoothies, on the Equinox in November they had a selection of about three each day available for "FREE" at the Oceanview Cafe. If you were entering the cafe on the starboard side they were on the first floating island. The same one used for the salad bar at lunch. The flavors seemed to change daily. I had a blueberry one day and I also remember a guava-something too. They were in juice glasses. Edited March 24, 2019 by pd7277 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that was also my experience on last cruises. Not bad, although I question the efficiency and net result of this charge for Celebrity ; enter and print receipt for this small amount, have it signed, etc Edited March 24, 2019 by odysee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Celebrity could add a surcharge for an added convenience fee to improve the cost effectiveness, but do not give them any ideas. Celebrity has to draw a line somewhere.😄 When Princess first introduced their drink package they had to give them your card and sign a receipt for each included drink. If you were getting a drink with a separate card, for someone else, you had to sign two receipts. Thank goodness they fixed that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tourist1292 Posted March 25, 2019 #36 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I found an older menu from Aquaspa Cafe and it was only $5. So it seems it is now $6. It should be covered in the classic package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted March 25, 2019 #37 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I'm not saying the smoothies are not covered, but the argument shouldn't be the price point. For example, Red Bull is not included in the Classic Package even though it is within the price point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
