coastcat Posted August 9, 2022 #26 Share Posted August 9, 2022 It's not April 1, so... it's real? Oh, this is fabulous news. Is it too much to hope that this may eventually include Coke Freestyle machines like on RCI? 6 minutes ago, Travelling2Some said: Here's a weird question. I know NCL won't let you bring your own sodas aboard but what exactly is the rule? Is it about no beverages or no liquids? I would like to bring a bottle of the salad dressing I normally use. Is that going to be an issue? It will be hilarious if I have to smuggle salad dressing in a shampoo bottle, lol. That's fine! They're looking for booze, not ranch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess it will take at least a few weeks or more to get the entire fleet changed over depending on where and when they get back to their current homeport pr other place they can do the swap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think Escape will have it by December. Like me some diet coke with Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare scooter6139 Posted August 9, 2022 #30 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Does anyone know what the new line-up will be? As a fat diabetic (who shouldn't be drinking soda anyway) I tend to just stick to their Diet options. Anyone know what those might be? (Assuming this will be fleetwide in the near future). Also, are they keeping the Redbull (is that part of either distributors chain)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserbear55 Posted August 9, 2022 #31 Share Posted August 9, 2022 My DW just said DelRio must have heard me bitching all these years about having to drink Pepsi instead of Coke!! As stated above, happy days are here again! Back in the day ( before 2016) I would always bring two cases of 16oz. Coke on board. I would drink two of the six packs through the week, and give the rest to our room steward and casino personnel.They were quite appreciative to get a break for a little while from drinking the "other stuff"!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare debenson0723 Posted August 9, 2022 #32 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I have a very close friend who is an Officer on one of the NCL ships. He told me a few weeks ago about the switch and I had been sworn to secrecy. It is going fleet wide but he didn't have any type of schedule for the switchover. I don't drink soda so this doesn't really apply to me but I know lots of others will be happy for the change (and when I did drink soda, it was Coke all the way). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prov2727 Posted August 10, 2022 #33 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Grrrr. After my latest round with NCL saying I forfeited my FCC unknowingly, no Mountain Dew could be the last straw. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare tetleytea Posted August 10, 2022 #34 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) Pepsi came from North Carolina, Coke came from Georgia. I think this is the end of my rope, I'm not doing Norwegian anymore. Edited August 10, 2022 by tetleytea 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcoy Posted August 10, 2022 #35 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Guess I’m one of the minority and prefers Pepsi. 😢. Wish they could have waited a couple more months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare grozzy1 Posted August 10, 2022 #37 Share Posted August 10, 2022 The next question is will it be the corn syrup coke from USA, or the sugar Coke the rest of the world drinks? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diver2014 Posted August 10, 2022 #46 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Yuck. I hate Coke. Pepsi for me all the way. I'll stick to water if Coke is the only soda. Coke tastes like battery acid but it does do a good buff job on a 1955 Chevy. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeter195 Posted August 10, 2022 #47 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I love Coke and hate Pepsi(too sweet). I do not know why but I love Diet Pepsi and hate Diet Coke. On a cruise though I only drink soda to calm an upset stomach so it won't matter to me much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also does a great job getting rid of the corrosion on your car battery. Not only does it taste great, but has so many other uses!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
