I believe so, since it's the first thing we do after unpacking. Edited September 16, 2022 by IPB4IGO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, you must do both, in that order. If it's more convenient, you can go to the muster station and be checked off before you watch the video. Have done it in that order on 3 cruises. There is a set period of time for checking in at the muster station. On the Rotterdam, we were early and had to wait at the Grand Dutch Cafe several minutes for the station to be manned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted September 16, 2022 #54 Share Posted September 16, 2022 On both KDam and N. Statendam this year, they announced ( and I think it was on the schedule) that you could check in at your Muster Station starting at 1:30. About 3 or 3:30, they started a regular set of announcements reminding everybody you needed to check in now...before we could sail. On KDam, at 4pm (sailing time) they specifically paged two cabins to report to their muster station. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cost of the tequila determines the cost of your Margarita, the same for any other mixed drink. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, for example if you ask for a margarita with 'Cabo Wabo' tequila ($10.75), this would be included in the SBP. Whereas, one with 'Patron Anejo' ($14.50) would not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bay2Beach Posted September 17, 2022 #60 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Royal Caribbean allows one person to purchase the drink package. The other person has to purchase the soda package unless they get a physicians order that they can’t have sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even with those limitations, we never exceeded our 15 drinks/day or the $11 per drink, even including some above-average liquors. It was a bit more difficult with wine, but there were still good choices at the $11 price point, you just had to be more mindful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katykrol Posted September 29, 2022 #67 Share Posted September 29, 2022 I know this has been asked many times and answered but it still seems very fluid. The brochure that cruisenews posted says the elite package is 15 drinks and unlimited zero proof drinks. Then I read that the elite pkg changed and it was 15 drinks total, including zero proof. Can someone comment that has sailed recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone comment that has sailed recently? Currently (on my upcoming K'dam cruise), EBP is described as "Our premium, Elite Beverage Package allows you to select from a variety of wine, beer, spirits, cocktails, non-alcoholic beverages, sodas, bottled water (sparkling or still, 400ml or less) & coffee. Only on the ms Koningsdam & ms Nieuw Statendam, the package includes Freestyle Coca-Cola which provides 100+ refreshing Coca-Cola flavors to choose from. Includes any beverage priced at $15.00 or lower (up to 15 beverages per day). " In other words, it no longer says unlimited non-alcoholic. Tip -- Stock up on unopened beverages that you can store in your mini-fridge, on the first day when you are not maxing out the 15. Or at end of any day you didn't get to 15. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
