Suite Susie Posted May 1, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Can anybody tell me whether we are able to use our drinks packages in all the Specialty Dining venues? We will be on Enchanted in July. Forgive my ignorance, but we have never sailed with Princess before. On Celebrity, we could use it everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VibeGuy Posted May 1, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Yes. A couple of the wines by the glass featured in Sabatini’s come with a $1.18 or $2.36 surcharge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skynight Posted May 1, 2022 #5 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Remember that the beverage package does not include wine by the bottle. There is a 25% discount on bottled wine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tak8 Posted May 4, 2022 #13 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Is there a limit on the price of a bottle of wine to get the 25% off? I thought there was an upper limit on the price in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wasnt sure how the package worked on the private island. We can always get bottles of water on the ship and take them off with us but wanted to see if the adult drinks would be honored on the island and it seems like they will.

Private island is a yes, but no fountain soda is available so that part of the package can not be used. Don't expect all the selections you would find on board. The package may be used on our private islands, all food and beverage venues, and other areas such as the theater or public spaces that offer beverage service. Selections and service are limited to each venue’s menu offerings and operating hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been Happy hours in the past, but restricted to certain bars. I remember Crooners had one to encourage people to visit the venue mid afternoon on Royal Princess. We also had one on Crown Princess in the Wheelhouse bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only speak from our last cruise in October. With so many pax having PP, Happy Hour is not needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No happy hours any more. Discontinued years ago before the plus fares were offered. With so many passengers with plus fares there really is limited marketing advantage for happy hours. The break even for the additional cost of a plus fare is around 2 alcoholic beverages/pp/day. Not much. It is a nice value. There is a loyalty event most evenings from 5 to 7pm where you can get a limited selection of watered down cocktails for maybe $6/7 + 18% service charge plus some snacks. It is supposed to be for Platinum loyalty members and higher, but this is seldom checked. If you are in a full suite on a Royal Class ship you can go to the concierge lounge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
