Cruising Caribbean Posted May 23, 2009 #3 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Yes,except on the Xpedition which is all inclusive. Really? I have never paid for a cappuccino or espresso in a dining room on HAL, Princess, Carnival or NCL, are you sure? That's very surprising and disappointing. :confused: Has it always been that way on X?

That's very surprising and disappointing. :confused: Has it always been that way on X? Not sure when you last cruised, but we paid for Lattes and cappuccinos on Carnival on Nov 08 cruise and on Princess on our Jan 08 Panama Canal cruise. Free coffees as on all lines, but not the 'specialty' coffees. There was a charge for all, dining and at various venues. Denny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted May 23, 2009 #5 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Cappuchino and Expresso are considered Specialty Coffees. Denny is correct. There is a charge, whether in the Main Dining Room or in Cova. Hi Denny:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Denny:) Hi Lois I see you just finished a cruise in April and going in Sep - we have to wait for Nov - I'll retire sooner or later! Of course, we are going on a 10+13da B2B. Love it!!

Denny Thanks, our last cruise was on Carnival right about a year ago, for DS's graduation. I ordered an espresso every night after dinner in the MDR. Oh well I know the economy is hitting the cruise lines as bad as anyone so maybe I'll just shell out the $$ for an espresso :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denny Hi We finished a seven week cruise on the Carnival Splendor a couple of months ago. Each night we'd have Espresso in the MDR---no charge. ps We were an inside cabin -------------terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mafig Posted May 24, 2009 #12 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Cappuccino and espresso are still free in the dining room on Carnival. Also free on NCL, Holland America and Costa. Princess, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mafig, I thought I was crazy altho I swear it was free on Princess too but that was some years ago. In any case, I like it so I'll order it and if I have to pay, I'm sure it won't be as much as my gin & tonic :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny01 Posted May 24, 2009 #14 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Seems like we've all had different results - costs in MDR and not. Carnival says they have bottle corking fees but didn't charge us - might have been due to the cash tips I palmed him! one thing you find out on this site is what you think is 'truth' varies. I love lattes and expressos so I pay or take them free! Denny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case, I like it so I'll order it and if I have to pay, I'm sure it won't be as much as my gin & tonic :) It was free on Princess several years ago. They had all kinds of specialty coffees available free....it was great. I believe they stoped around 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
