Soda package question

[buffkids]

We are a couple travelling with my sister, who will be solo in her room. My husband wants the soda package but I don't, and neither does my sister. If we buy the soda package for my sister, who because she's a single traveller only has to buy one package, could my husband just use the cup instead of her?

No you can't share packages which is what you'd technically be doing.  However, one person can purchase the Soda Package without others in the cabin doing so, so your husband can buy his own and no problems.

 It's only the Deluxe Beverage Package that requires everyone in the cabin over 21 purchasing it.

Your question is a question of trying to circumnavigate the rules.  The soda package is only for the person that purchased it.  However, the soda package is not a booze package, so anyone can get it without everyone getting it.  But it is not for sharing!

Do you really want him to carry that stupid cup everywhere?

You don’t have to carry the cup unless you are only using freestyle soda machine.  Any bar will give you a glass of soda, but not as many choices.

 

Another reason not to try sharing - if you don’t have the cup you have to show Seapass card.

Why not just buy the soda package for your husband?

The OP was misunderstanding the rules.  She thought that there was a requirement for all in a cabin to purchase, which there is not.

Thank you 😀

Oh my gosh.  You are all right.  I thought this was like the other types of drink packages where everyone in the cabin had to buy the same package!!  Ha!  That sure would have been a lot of complication :) Thank you
