I will be checking that out for sure. Just so you know the water is in a pop top can. Once you pop it open that’s it, you are committed. If you are lucky there “might” be metal bottles. They are not included in the hia package. Someone reported recently they were very pricy, over $6 for the small bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some mornings the lines were long. Staff was overworked. Watched them make my “skinny vanilla latte” and every single time they just grabbed whatever milk was handy. Don’t think I ever got skim milk in my latte. Probably not sugar free vanilla either. They were so busy I was not going to make them do it over. On the Noordam for Alaska in May and the cafe on deck 3 as wonderful. It would be nice to have 2 cafes for so many people I think that happens a lot. I generally ask for skim milk but they rarely have it. If a person is diabetic that is not cool on the syrup.

Do I also remember bar personnel wandering around the waiting excursions groups the show room lounge, also selling cans of soda and water before departing the ship? Last month on Noordam, we had water in glass bottles at the gangway (we were in New Zealand) and there was also a table down by the World Stage while waiting for your excursion.

I wonder if that had any takers on those water bottles. I’m a water drinker but no way would I haul one of those. They are too heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbiSox Posted March 30, 2023 #30 Share Posted March 30, 2023 I bring an empty plastic water bottle in my carry-on and just refill it with the canned water when I go ashore. It's not always convenient to get water once ashore. No one has ever stopped me for binging onboard my plastic water bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a person is diabetic that is not cool on the syrup. I specifically say, each time, “skinny vanilla latte with skim milk and sugar free vanilla”. Sometimes they repeat it for me, sometimes not. Does. Not seem to matter. It was always made the same 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
