ValerieJo Posted September 16, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 16, 2019 If the 10 drink punch card is for sale on week 1 of our back2back and we don't use it all, will we be able to use it during week 2 of the back2 back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 16, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2019 They say it can be used on subsequent cruises, but I would ask the bar server before you purchase, just to be sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We asked and were actually told no it couldn't on Freedom on our B2B last September...but of course like anything RCI that can vary. Best to ask you might get a different answer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted September 16, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 16, 2019 We did a back to back on oasis last year. We asked the same question, and were told YES, we could use it on the next (B2B) cruise. We decided not to buy the punchcard. On the second cruise ( when the 10 drink card went on sale) we just simply asked if we had a punch left over from our previous cruise, could we use it and they told us NO. We asked both questions at the same bar, on both legs of a B2B and got two different answers. All I can say is purchase at your own risk M 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiggaZagga17 Posted September 16, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I've tried also and been told - No! I think possibly it may be down to the fact they don't make them available early on in the cruise as a rule - so if B2B'ers were using theirs, then they'd get questions/grief from other cruisers to get one etc. That and I believe there's no hard n fast rule with their availability and they may not decide to offer them on your 2nd week - back to the questions n grief bit again 😂 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted September 16, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 16, 2019 I would ask the Bar Manager instead of a bar server or bartender. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also seem to remember there was fine print about this policy somewhere. Only valid on cruise/itinerary purchased.

Rare twangster Posted September 16, 2019 #8 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Mine said no and the card had the folio number written on the back that they keyed in for each drink. Folio's change between B2B cruises. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used one over three cruises on Oasis 2017 Always went to On Air and used the same bartender It was her suggestion I also only used it after it went on sale, never early in the week As far as folio number, my seapass was deactivated on day 6 of the first week When you get a new one, you get a new folio number.😱 I expressed my concerns to Guest Services since my punch card still had 8 spots on it and they said don't worry, it doesn't matter YMMV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I likely won't bother with the punch card. Seems we don't drink as much as years ago.
