Half price wine the first night in the Steakhouse

[daveo6313]

I have a couple of cruises coming up and was wondering if you can buy more than one bottle of wine at half price in the steakhouse on the first night and take it with you?

 

The other question is on shorter cruises of 4 or 5 days do they still offer the half price or free bottle of wine in the steakhouse?

you can purchase more than 1 discounted bottle, but i believe they have to be opened in the restaurant, though you don't have to finish them, and take the remaining to go.
the wine offer is available on shorter sailings as well.

On the Marci Gras in September, I purchased 2 extra bottles at half price(3 total). I was able to take both bottles unopened.

I cruise solo. I’ve gone to steakhouse my past 2 cruises on first night and received free wine. This says for every 2 people. Is this new?

I believe the free bottle is per table.

The intent behind that was so if you have 4 people at a table, you can now get 2 free bottles. But you gotta ask for them.

Ok thanks! All I want is one for one! 😋

To add, it's your first 2 nights and the free wine is a house wine. You can also get 50% off of a decent bottle of wine as well.

And it's only up to $100 bottles now. This thread mentions the new limit.

Yeppers - that "little change" harpooned the great deal we've enjoyed for years now. So much for saving ~$100 on bottles of Dom, Caymus Special, etc... 

 

Now, when we pull the trigger on those, it's a 25% savings owing to CHEERS - or, actually, it's casino equivalent 🙂

Interesting, I've never noticed the 18% fee on the receipts now says "service charge" instead of gratuity. I wonder when that change was made.

No idea - but I recall it being on there since COVID (perhaps earlier)?

So it's not a guarantee that it occurs on the first two nights as reported above.  It's always the first night, the other opportunity is the first elegant dining night regardless of which day that is.

Maybe it depends on who you speak with at Steakhouse.  The host at Steakhouse (MG, maybe?) said I could get the bottle of free house wine or purchase bottles at 50% off, not both. YMMV.
