Unlimited Soda pass for the Pride?

[cmdear63]

Going with the fam in June on the Pride. My son drinks soda non-stop.

Do they offer a soda card?

If so, how much?

 

Thanks!

Yes, Carnival has a Soda Card and on the last cruise I was on it was $6/day/adult and $4.50/day/child, but I've also heard that's the west coast price and that the east coast price is cheaper ($5.50 and $4.00).

2007 I was on the Glory & it was $40 for adults. I know some folks think a waste of money but I'm a diet coke-a-holic & at $ 3 a coke was well worth it for me. I keep one in my hand 24/7. Well its on the nightstand while I'm sleeping.

If you drink a few pops per day, it's worth it. It's also nice not to have a limit, since they are nice for mixing drinks, or just drinking at dinner.

Another way to save money on a soda card is to wait until the next day to buy it. If you can get by on iced tea, punch or coffee the first night for your caffeine fix, the thinking is that you're not gonna get your money's worth of soda the day you board anyway. If you're just buying for one person it may not matter to you, but if you are buying for 5 people, it's a huge savings.

I wonder, would they get irritated if I shared the soda? My wife and I almost always share our sodas, so as to cut down on having to hold onto more than 1 drink at a time. Even during dinner we have a tendency to share, and this isn't just on a ship!

They shouldn't mind, but keep in mind a lot of servers won't serve if she tries to use your card.

Another thought was to bring a case of soda on board? Can you bring that on board?

I know all about the alcohol, but I don't think I saw anything on soda?

Any thoughts on this:confused:

As far as I know, you can do this - that is what we plan to do. Our family tends to drink one can of soda a day - not enough to justify the soda card, but would still like to have some available. Hubby and I brought a 12 pack of diet coke on-board our cruise in October (Princess) and they didn't even blink an eye. I have *heard* Carnival can be even more relaxed about stuff like this than Princess.
