Rare KeithJenner Posted March 27 #3 Share Posted March 27 The soda package is very limited. It basically just includes fountain soda. However, in my experience, if the adults have the beverage package then it is quite rare to be charged for soft drinks for children anyway. We have always been very upfront about who the drinks were for and on only a few occasions were the drinks for our son not charged against our beverage package. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbrown84 Posted March 27 #4 Share Posted March 27 just to be clear, this no such thing as a children's drink package on NCL, which is why you can't find anything with your searches. The offer the soda package, which is what you child (as well as adults) could get. you can search on that for results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAcruising Posted March 28 #5 Share Posted March 28 Easy answer, no. But if you want this thread to go off the rails, ask if you can order a virgin drink on your package and give it to your kid. Hilarity ensues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastlet Posted March 28 #6 Share Posted March 28 I was actually wondering this for myself. I don't drink, but do enjoy a virgin pina colada. Buying the drinks package is a lot of money for virgin drinks, when all I really drink is Diet Coke. I think Norwegian won't let only one person in a cabin get a drinks package, which kind of sucks when only one is a drinker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is done because if I was offered an unlimited drink package which i can order 2 drinks at a time, why would i order a second for my wife. Now, if you only plan on ordering maybe 1 virgin drink per day that is about $8 to $10 per day. But remember, soda is actually pricey on ships, i think it was almost $3 per can 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjd65 Posted March 28 #9 Share Posted March 28 I'm hoping to find some fun virgin drinks when we cruise. I'm traveling with my DH and DS25 and they both would like the beverage package. DS doesn't drink a lot of alcohol, but he plans on using the opportunity to try a bunch of different drinks to find some he likes LOL. Since we all have to have the package, I will also have it even though I don't drink alcohol at all (I don't react well and often am knocked out with very small amounts - 1 drink can lead to hours of sleep) Obviously, I will be able to get diet coke but I'm hoping for some virgin drinks to at least make the package a little more "worth it" for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't drink coffee or tea, and would spend the cruise in caffeine withdrawal. I'm just peeved that I have to pay for the drinks package for me when someone else in the cabin drinks and I don't. Similarly, I'm bring my teenager with us on the next cruise. He loves Starbucks and we don't drink it. I would have loved to treat him with a Starbucks unlimited package but again we have to buy it for the whole cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can probably blame the people who share drinks with those who do not have a package for that policy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nordicacres Posted March 28 #13 Share Posted March 28 I have a question. My husband has a legitimate allergy to alcohol. He cannot drink even the smallest amount. We are thinking about booking a family trip to the Caribbean in 2025 or 2026. Is there a medical exemption? Because yes, I do want the FAS package.

My husband doesn't drink (just doesn't like the taste). Multiple times each cruise a bartender will mix him up an alcoholic drink on accident. For us, no harm no foul. For y'all @nordicacres, sounds like it might be a bit more serious. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nordicacres Posted March 28 #18 Share Posted March 28 Thanks for the concern. He’s not one for mocktails, either. Root Beer would be the only thing he’d drink that is a Coke product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Starbucks package terms state 18 and older. Edited March 28 by Two Wheels Only 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
