Soda Card?

[Dalabar]

We are taking our first RCI cruise. Can someone help me understand the soda card purchase?

 

What is the cost of the card?

What is the cost of individual soda? Trying to figure if it's worth it?

What beverages on the ship are free?

Are sodas free in the dining room and Windjammer?

 

Thanks for your help!

Soda card is $6 per day for adults and $4 per day for children plus 15% gratuity plus sales tax if bought before ship leaves port.

 

I believe an individual soda is about $1.75 (plus 15% if purchased at a bar).

 

INCLUDED beverages are coffee/tea/iced tea/lemonade plus juices at breakfast.

 

Sodas are not included (i.e., "free") anywhere on the ship.

 

You may also bring onboard any sodas that the ship does not carry - although I'm not sure whether or not this is enforced at all. We bring Diet Pepsi as that is what DH drinks and it is not available on the ship.
