Unfortunately the receipt did not specify Evian which I was expecting. I have a feeling you get what the ship has on hand. This was on the Mariner last week. Good to know... they shouldn't be showing the 1L bottles of Evian in the gifts section if that's not what they're delivering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I didn't push it since we had ready access to bottled water with our deluxe package I just didn't love the brand but was fine and drank a ton of it!

If I see 12 bottles of 500ml off brand water in the cabin I'll be off to GS for a refund. That isn't what I ordered or what they marketed. There is no fine print that indicates they can substitute a lesser quantity which the typical off brand bottles would be. I'm going to screen shot it too and will do the same. I'm hopefully optimistic Mariner was just running through current quantity but $19.99 for small bottles was a money maker for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohiolovescrusing Posted October 27, 2023 #29 Share Posted October 27, 2023 The Beverage Package selection for 12 waters lists the size as 1-L in the description. At least for our upcoming Adventure cruise. No 12 waters in gift area, just the cooler option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one in the Cruise Planner is 1lt evian The one in Royal Gifts says "Water brands may vary onboard" when you click on details. both pics are shown in the quote Edited October 28, 2023 by LilBlackDress 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Researcher Posted October 28, 2023 #31 Share Posted October 28, 2023 I’ve ordered the water through the cruise planner (not the gift section) 2-3 times now and have yet to get Evian, or 1L bottles. I did get the correct total ounces of bottled water, and then some. I don’t really care, but if it happens again I will say something at guest services. It is incorrect advertising when that happens and the more voices that spotlight the problem, the more likely they will fix it for those that expect the 1L Evian bottles (as they should expect) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a higher PH content than typical bottled water. That means more hydration per oz drank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fine with the off label I got on the Mariner since I had ordered it through gifts where it says brand may vary. But for our next cruise it specifically says Evian Water Package in the planner! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
