KarinaGW Posted October 19, 2006 #76 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Is the card available on Rhapsody? I wish I knew as I will be on her in May. It is a Champagne Bar-specific thing and she does have a Champagne Bar, but whether this is something that's offered in all Champagne Bars I don't know and didn't think to ask on Explorer.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atb Posted October 19, 2006 #77 Share Posted October 19, 2006 This is my first time on RCCL.:confused: I checked deck plans - and it appears that Grandeur does have a Champagne Bar. Is there any way to find out before hand if they will have - do have - the champagne card? This is is neatest thing I ever heard of :D - I work my way through the Champagne menu each day - :D I printed the menu from a previous post - I can hardly wait.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarinaGW Posted October 20, 2006 #78 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Okay, gang. Your missions are to find out if the ships upon which you are going to sail have the champagne card or an equivalent program thereto. We owe it to each other as champagne lovers to find and share. So, when you get back, please find this thread (don't start a new one...it would just get confusing), and add your info on. Thank you for your attention in this matter. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisecrazymama Posted October 20, 2006 #80 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I know she has a champagne bar, now I'm hoping she has the champagne card! Hopefully someone will report back before we leave and let us know, if not, well, I'll just have to sacrifice myself for this mission. I'll be sure to offer a full report when we return:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgttami Posted October 30, 2006 #85 Share Posted October 30, 2006 We just got back yesterday. The Champagne Card is alive and well but you won't see it advertised. Ask Andre (the bartender) for one. They are $43.13 and include 10 champagne cocktails.. I have the card here since I didn't use the last cocktail...no loss since we bought 3 cards over 9 days, but I am copying this from the card for those who are interested... (Champagne Cocktail Package..valid only in the champagne bar includes: C= Champagne Bellini....C, peach liquor and Creme deCassis St. Moritz..C, apricot brandy, gin and orange juice Kir Royale..C, and Creme de Cassis London Special...C, Augustura bitters and sugar How's everybody...C and apple schnapps Make my day..C and midori Caribbean Cassanova...C, creme de banana and OJ Good and plenty..C and apricot brandy Love Boat...C and peach schnapps Mimosa..C and OJ There is a ten spot circle that gets punched when you buy each drink and you can use it all at once or over the course of the cruise. If sold separately, each cocktail is $7.95 so buying the card makes them roughly half price. We did tip extra when buying the cards ($10 on each card) and still considered the package a great bargain...Tip that little bit extra cash and see how many times your card doesn't get punched!!

skepticalw2kids Posted October 30, 2006 #86 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Does anyone know if they have a booze card equivalant on the Soverign of the seas? I was on the Majesty a few years back and they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgiaMOM Posted December 27, 2006 #91 Share Posted December 27, 2006 We were on the Serenade 12/2 and they have a champagne bar, but when asked about the card they said no. We were so disappointed. Sure would be nice if it was fleet wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawnrae Posted December 27, 2006 #92 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Just off the Legend of the Seas which has a Champagne Bar but, alas, no champagne card. Yes, it would be nice if this was fleet-wide. Dawnrae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex_Jen Posted January 9, 2007 #95 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Never made it to the Champagne bar on the Serenade. The Jewel usually had daily specials in the Champagne bar, but no card. Freddie was our bartender on the Jewel and got me hooked on the Bellinis. Found the card on the Adventure. Our bartender, Benny, had the sign up the first day and my sister and I gravitated right over and got our cards. Even if we didn't finish off the cards, we were better off in terms of cost. Not to worry, we completed them. Benny would greet us every day as we passed through the Promenade. To answer earlier questions, yes, you can take the cocktail with you. You are not bound to stay in the bar area with your cocktail. We usually got ours as pre-dinner cocktails. Smoking and nonsmoking areas are available in the Champagne bar on the AOS. The bar was smoking and the seated areas were nonsmoking. Sorry, just don't remember how that worked on the Jewel. Enjoy, everyone! Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPARKLE10 Posted January 9, 2007 #96 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Hi: I just returned from the Freedom's New Years Eve cruise this past Sunday and I went to the Champagne Bar and asked about the card and was told no, they didn't have them there. We enjoyed the bar anyway and that's where we were on New Years Eve at midnight.:p Happy Cruising......Sparkle 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merion_Mom Posted January 13, 2007 #99 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Oops, posted on my own thread, but forgot to post here. Enchantment, 12/28-1/3............no champagne card. The bartender looked at me like I had five heads. And there were only three champagne cocktails on their menu. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North2Alaska Posted January 19, 2007 #100 Share Posted January 19, 2007 :( :( [quote name='KarinaGW']It wasn't advertised heavily on the Explorer either. I read it on Page 2 of Day 1's Cruise Compass under Food & Drink. I think I saw a sign or two, but that's pretty much it.[/quote] I checked with RCI and this was their response: Dear Sir or Madam, Thank you for your inquiry. I'm sorry you receive misinformation. We do not offer a Champagne card. Thank you for choosing Royal Caribbean International.
