Holidayfun141 Posted July 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Sorry if it's been asked before we are on Sky Princess from Southampton, we have a good amount of OBC, can we use this to buy a drinks package once we board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voljeep Posted July 9, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2023 hopefully you are inquiring about either the PLUS or Premier package(s), not just a 'drinks package' and the answer is yes, you can purchase the first day on board and use OBC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted July 9, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Absolutely! That is a great way to use some of that OBC... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted July 9, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 9, 2023 To emphasize post #2. You can add the plus or premier package to your cruise on the first day. These packages include wifi, daily crew incentive, either the plus or premier beverage package as well as some other items. To purchase a stand alone beverage package really isn't very cost effective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not pay for the PCL standalone beverage package - waste of money. Buy the PLUS or PREMIER. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can drink the rest (looking forward to it)! 🤪The fourth person bought the Plus package even though she is a light drinker. Everyone should weigh the pros and cons of the packages and act accordingly. Happy cruising! 🛳️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be my first time having a big bed/bathroom and cabin to myself. (3 balconies and one Mini.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, but they need it in place so they can point to how much a guest saves by buying the Plus/Premier options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both people have to book Plus/Premier now if either one wants it. But that is fine anyway since the standalones are so expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy cruising! 🛳️ Sure, but the earlier posts were about purchasing the Plus/Premier if want a drinks package and not the standalone beverage offer. The cruise fare options do not suit us either, so we book Standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
