boopuff Posted November 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 12, 2022 We got the classic drink package. Can I use it in the dining room? If I want a glass of wine, can I just use my drink package? It's so confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserMickey Posted November 12, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 12, 2022 You can use your drink package in any venue on the ship. Just order any drink up to a value if $9. If you want something more expensive you will be charged the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tallpeople Posted November 14, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 14, 2022 What about the specialty coffees in the MDR after dinner (with the classic drink package?j For instance, could I order a mocha? What about asking for one to go? In the past, we’ve stopped by Cafe Al Bacio, but sometimes there’s a bit of a line. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have ordered specialty coffees in the MDR after dinner (included in the Classic drink package), but I have never asked for one to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience has been the opposite. On Equinox I was informed that I would be changed for the mini bar drinks while sailing in a Sky Suite. I've never tried ordering an alcoholic beverage from room service. I normally drink an Arnold Palmer or the wine or champaign we have in our stateroom.

We disembarked the Edge on November 7th after 36 days and had no problem getting any beverage we wanted in our suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew that our Personal Retreat Host would do that but I guess that I am just not comfortable using his as a drink server. Now if he's bringing food or other items then I may ask him to bring a drink. I am the type of Suite Guest that will take a stroll down to Cafe Al Bacio in the morning and pick up two almond croissants and two coffee with Bailey's and take them back to the room for a pre-breakfast snack instead of asking our Personal Retreat Host to bring them. (I need the exercise) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not a guaranteed perk of a suite and will vary by level and Butler... 2 hours ago, -Lew- said: The beverage package will work if you're in the Retreat...for room service and mini bar. Neither are automatically included for all suites in the Retreat, check the perks of the suite you have booked to avoid disappointment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During our September cruise, our butler made it clear that he would restock our little fridge with soda, bottled water and/or beer at "no charge" if we asked him to, but bottled wine was not part of that. I don't have enough cruise experience to know if that's typical or varies by butler, though, but I definitely recommend asking. cjr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew I could ask our butler to bring me coffee every morning, but I tend to rise at different times in the morning -- generally early -- and when I'm up, I want that first java cup quickly. (I never bothered using the kettle and those instant-mix tubes in our room.) Anyway, I enjoyed getting two hot steaming Americanos each morning and then quietly sipping them before my wife awoke. cjr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
