Did you realize you can still turn in the mini bar for 2 coffee drink packages. They are loaded onto your account instead of a paper coffee card which you could save if you didn't use all 15 drinks. 

 

You seem to be suggesting you can trade mini bar in for the zero alcohol package. That isn't true unless something has changed recently.

You can trade in the alcohol and water for cans of soda. They love it and make out on the deal

Yes, I'm well aware of this benefit cut and even though it's only impacted me on one cruise, I'm still not happy about it.

Discovery Princess (Oct. 2022) and Regal Princess (July 2023) both had Coke Light in tall slim cans.  We prefer Diet Coke, but have found that the taste is different depending on where you are in the world.  After a few drinks our taste buds adapt.

We were on a Carnival cruise (I assume that Coke has the distribution contract on all CCL ship brands) and the bars had Sprite Zero.  They had Coke Zero too, but Mrs Fan tries to stay away from caffeine and calories, so it was a good option.

We’re on Sapphire Princess now for 30 days…..NO Coke Zero only Sprite Zero

Coke light is some foreign stuff available on other countries, comparable to Diet Coke… It is nothing like Coke zero

[cheetosrevil]

At least there's Coca Cola products for those of you who like that brand!

Hmm. I wasn't planning to stop at the store on the way to the port, but I might have to.  I hope Sky in December has coke zero.  I might be mad if they don't.

The Lavazza has no price on the web site. Ask on board about trading the mini bar out for the 15 coffees loaded onto your account.

There is no price because each specialty coffee has its own cost.  Specialty coffee is included free only with the plus, premier, or zero alcohol packages. See the T&C’s (one link is attached) that state “cannot be used for minibar items”.  The stand alone coffee package with 15 coffees that previously could be a mini bar trade has been discontinued as stated in previous posts.

Had purchased DH a coffee card pkg last December when you were still able to purchase them. Boarded the Grand Princess on 26 Sept. and  couldn’t get them to add just 15 specialty coffees to his Medallion - only received OBC in the amount I paid back in December

...combining the two (1/2 and 1/2) is as close to tasting like Coke zero as we can get. 

Just sail on one of the newer ships in the fleet and they should have Coke Zero.  14 days on the Discovery and another 14 on the Majestic, all the Coke Zero my DH and I wanted.

Must have been pre Covid since Pepsi products have been on Carnival since just before the shutdown.  They have Pepsi and Starry Zero.

The coffee in the buffet is free for everyone.  Well, not free, but included in your cruise fare.  They stopped trading out mini bar setup for coffee packages back in the spring.  Trust me, I've complained about it because it was a huge benefit cut to elite's who enjoyed the trade.  If that is what you mean, it has nothing to do with packages of any kind, it's just the coffee in the buffet.

Twice, you’ve said it, and twice I’m confused what exactly is a DH?

I think people use that for "Dear Husband" or DW for "Dear Wife".  Also DD for Daughter and DS for son.  I guess it's just a way to abbreviate the person you are referring to.

How long ago was this? We were on Carnival Glory for the October 1st sailing out of New Orleans, and it was all Pepsi products. Much prefer Diet Coke over Diet Pepsi, but I survived for one week. 😂

Cruise Critic  short cut for Dear Husband. Also, DW, DD,  DS, and any other combination for a family member. There are also lots of other short cuts used in CC postings. 
Can google to see meanings of others. I have seen these various short cuts used on Cruise Critic since I joined back in 2004.

No. Carry on. We always do as we drink the caffeine free DC as Coke Zero is impossible to find even here in Florida.

The official name is now Coca Cola Zero Sugar.  Buy all you want at Sams, Costco, Bjs, Walmart, etc.  We will carry 2 12 packs with us onto the Sky in December.

On my last two Princess cruises I asked my water/Coke to be switched out for Coke Zero, but they only had Diet Coke. They did have Sprite Zero, though. Another approach, which I do, is to buy a 2L bottle at the first port of call in a convenience store, usually in Cabo---'sin azucar'.
