We tried one between us, each having one and two spoonfuls and that was enough. Our future cruises are all on the Enchanted and the Sun, so they should have the gelato shops so a basic affagato should hopefully be substituted. We were on the Majestic and the sundaes were terrible. I tell the staff preparing the sundaes that I only want one scoop of vanilla gelato with some chocolate sauce—I can’t and won’t eat the huge dessert! I’m always accommodated after they check to see if my package covers the desserts. They usually just put in a small cup but at times I get the single scoop in the sundae glass that is coated in chocolate and sprinkles! I just pass on dessert in the MDR and get the gelato. Much better than the MDR ice cream! And, on my last cruise (on the Ruby), I did get an affagato! The ice cream sundae place was in the same place as the coffee place on the Lido deck. Easy to pour a shot of espresso on top of the gelato! Edited July 23, 2023 by disneyochem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SAKay Posted July 23, 2023 #52 Share Posted July 23, 2023 @beg3yrsOn our April Ruby cruise, canned sodas of any kind were included in the Plus Package. I got Diet Cokes any time I wanted. We took them with us when we got off the ship to go to the beach in several ports. No charge ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got canned Diet Coke in the MDR, and always fountain soda at bars/room service on our July 2023 Ruby cruise as part of our Plus package. Hubby would order two diet Cokes in the MDR and ask staff not to open one of them! He would then take a can back to our room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get a Coke Zero, much better tasting than Diet Coke and we had no problems getting cans on the Discovery last year and the Majestic this year.

I was on Majestic, April 2023 , SYD to LA, cans were also included. You could tell as ordering in the APP it would show $0.00 as cost. Emerald says they do not have Coke Zero on board. Funny as the T&C of the pkgs specifically say ‘fountain’, someone made a change. Also, change in ordering Pizza, there are 3 different choices, all have a $8.50 charge( no pepperoni or plain cheese available on APP). Free pizza thru the APP is gone, wonder if it was too popular? I was able to order free whole Pepperoni pizza thru the APP on the Sapphire, got off July 12, so this is a recent change. Will try and find out talking to F&B manager.

I noticed it a few days into the cruise. I had the older version (Plus Pkg) Aw well, did not stop me from enjoying the drink pkg just the same. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
