TIA Yes you will be ...The mini bar has nothing to do with the soda package you purchased. Usually the mini bar will be empty unless you opt to have it stocked and pay the per item prices.

Ken at the beach Posted December 8, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 8, 2019 It’s been a few years since Royal has stocked anything in the cooler for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisymae14 Posted December 8, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Oh wow! It's been since 2016 since I sailed and loved the mini bar stocked and gummy bears and chocolate. Hmmm.. ok. I guess I will have to go to the store on the ship. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prepare to pay double what you would pay at Wally World, that is if they had them. They seldom have anything I need thus saves me lots of money.

jenniferop Posted December 9, 2019 #13 Share Posted December 9, 2019 not that you asked - but MSC does allow you to use anything in the Mini bar fridges as part of their Beverage package! loved that feature for late night snacks and drinks - cabin steward would stock with your preference if you asked...

Take your own gummy's and chocolate. You'll save a lot of money and they're easy to pack. Makes no sense at all to pay ship prices for that kind of thing.

Daisymae14 Posted December 9, 2019 Author #19 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I was never hit with charges, feel bad for the ones who were charged. I never use to eat Gummy's until my first cruise with Royal and then it became a staple to have them when I did cruise..so when I heard they don't stock automatically now, kinda bummed. Its ok. I don't need that stuff anyway. I may still pack some things for the kids for late night, but otherwise, I wont be ordering! Thanks everyone! My only worry now is the weather next week! I see rain a few days in trip to Bahamas 4 nights and its my boys first cruise, I don't want this to be a bad experience for them. I LOVE to cruise and want them to enjoy it too!
