DanaDanes Posted May 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Hi! Heading on the summit to Bermuda and we have the All included package with our booking. My husband is 8 years in recovery and does not drink alcohol at all. He would love the zero proof package instead for the smoothies and waters etc. does anyone know if we can switch out his classic package for the zero proof one in these circumstances?

You should also be able to do it by calling the Captian’s Club pre-cruise and making the request. I have seen it documented here on CC that others have been successful swapping the Classic Package for the Zero Proof. They have not received any credit as a result of the price difference but have been able to make the change.’ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbenboys Posted May 1, 2023 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Q. Does everyone in my stateroom need to buy a Drink Package? A. Any guest wishing to purchase the Drink Package must do so for all other guests of legal drinking age in the same stateroom. The following exceptions can be made, giving the guests the option of purchasing the Zero Proof package instead. Exceptions: • Children 12 years old and under: will NOT be required to purchase a Zero drink package. • Teens – A Zero Proof drink package will be added. • 13 -17 years old (Europe, Asia, Australia) • 13 - 20 years old (USA) • Pregnant guests – A Zero Proof drink package will be added. • Recovering alcoholic, religious request, or medical issue that doesn’t allow guests to consume alcohol. – A Zero Proof drink package will be added. https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Celebrity/General_Info/CEL_Beverage_Package_FAQs.pdf 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m so glad there is a set policy, I hate making special requests! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discruiser3 Posted May 2, 2023 #9 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Thanks for sharing this. I have the all-included classic package; however, my daughter is only 17 yo. My TA says she will get the classic zero-proof package not premium zero proof. It seems odd because I spent a lot of money for her to only have classic zero proof. Does anyone have experience with this> Curious if I should look into this further with the captain's club, etc or if it's just their policy?

broadwaybaby123 Posted May 2, 2023 #12 Share Posted May 2, 2023 There's a mocktail package you can look into. It's basically alcoholic drinks minus the alcohol (for example Virgin Martinis, Virgin Pina Coladas, etc.) That's what I'm getting on my next cruise as I don't drink either.

Marelaine Posted May 3, 2023 #13 Share Posted May 3, 2023 For the same reason, have gone to Guest Services on the first day and asked to trade my husband's CAL package to premium non-alcohol. We've always been accommodated, no questions asked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they had fun 🙂 I saw there was only one zero proof package now. But did you do the all inclusive ? That's what we purchased, so not sure if it is different than if you buy the drink packages separately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megan01 Posted May 5, 2023 #17 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I called and spoke to a customer service rep as we booked directly with Celebrity and they took care of changing my husband from the classic alcohol beverage package to the zero proof package with no difficulty. I didn’t want to wait and deal with it onboard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past, we've ordered virgin drinks and they've contained alcohol. I think the bartenders are so used to making alcoholic drinks. Just sniff them first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
