excited balcony Posted December 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Are double drinks covered in the Premium Package . . . asking for a friend. ☺️ Has anyone sailed recently that can tell me if they had Woodford Reserve available onboard? We last sailed on Celebrity in April and they did not have any onboard due to Covid shipping issues. Lastly, are there wines you would recommend in the Premium Package? The last time we sailed my favorite was the Cakebread Pinot Noir, but it wasn't always available. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted December 15, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I can't answer you on the wines ,but doubles are definitely available. I drink JW Black, and most of the time, either the server or bartender actually asked if I wanted double. Not a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excited balcony Posted December 15, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted December 15, 2022 That is great news on the doubles!! In case others are wondering, I did a bit more digging in the boards and these are some of the wines that came up several times: Cakebread Pinot Noir Conundrum (a blend) Decoy Cabernet Elegance Sauvignon Blanc Kiona Merlot Cherry Tart or Pie Pinot Nior Layer cake primitivo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

breadandbutter Posted December 16, 2022 #8 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Villa Maria sauvignon blanc is very good, and the Cattier champagne also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miched Posted December 17, 2022 #9 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Find a BT that you like and makes the drinks the way that you like them. Grease their palm. They will accommodate you If you don’t have a package or want to upgrade do it with a BT that you like. They get the 20% gratuity. PLEASE DON’T DO IT WITH THE HAWKS THAT APPROACH YOU AROUND THE SHIP ON THE FIRST DAY. They are chasing the gratuity and you will never see them again. DO IT WITH SOMEONE THAT WILL BE SERVING YOU AND WILL ACCOMMODATE YOU. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a premium drink plus package that included the premium drink pack upgrade plus the mini bar, snacks and casino credit. It was a deal depend on the length of the cruise. You got daily 2 splits of wine, mini bottles of Tito’s vodka, Kind Bars, and Pringles. I think if the cruise was 7 days it was a no brainer as the casino credit covered the cost. I don’t know if it is still offered Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
since1982 Posted December 17, 2022 #11 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Thank both for your answer. I had read that if both people in the cabin buy the Premium Beverage package it would include that cabin mini bar. Except, we did not really buy it it was one of the perks given to us so 🤷🏻♂️ I will I’ll ask once I get on board. PS The premium beverage package “plus” is still being offered.

However, if you're in a suite, your butler can fill it with soda, ome wines and beers with no additional cost (just remember to tip him!). 1 hour ago, since1982 said: I will I’ll ask once I get on board.

I double-checked with our sailing on the Solstice next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare DaKahuna Posted December 17, 2022 #15 Share Posted December 17, 2022 When I did not have the DBP and wanted to upgrade, I would always do it at the Martini Bar. That is one of my favorite hangouts so it made sense to get on the good side of the bartenders there. The alternate was the Ensemble Lounge. We find that a very relaxing location onboard the ship and enjoy sitting and listening to the talented musicians and have always found the service there exceptional. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
