Caffeine-free diet Coke is my soda of choice while at home because I'm very suseptible to caffeine. DH and I are doing our first cruise & I'm wondering if they have Caffeine free Coke/Diet Coke on HAL, or if I should bring my own.

But then again, I get seasick/carsick/you name it, and I'm bummed that after reading the "seasick" threads, the only thing that seems really dependable is Bonine/meclazine which makes me very drowsy, even though it is the supposed non-drowsy formula.:(

Maybe the caffeine will be good for me so I can stay awake on the cruise. Anyway, I just was wondering if the caffeine-free kind is availably on board.

chilipepa: yes, HAL does have it, but you might consider bringing a few cans along in case they have a run on caffeine free diet Coke. Have a good cruise!

I agree with Bill S that caffeine free diet coke is readily available (that's about all I'm allowed to drink anymore :( ).
I disagree that you need to lug any aboard with you. There's always more on the ship than I'll ever need! :D

You can always ask your TA to advise HAL that you're coming so they should stock up. They will.

Y'all can come by my house and pick of a case of the stuff. Had a friend who could only drink caffeine free diet coke and even they gave up on it and only drink water now. After taking all the fun stuff out of it I can't imagine what it even tastes like. I can't stand diet anything and wife thinks caffeine is the elixir of life. So....now I'm stuck with a case of basically useless colored water. :D

I totally agree with you k47, it is basically useless colored water, LOL. But my plan is to mix Rum with it, then it won't be useless anymore.:) With the number of these beverages I plan on drinking, if there were caffeine in the soda someone would have to peel me off the ceiling!:D

Thanks for the info you guys.

How are you getting the rum aboard?


Or......:) Are you ordering it from room service?

7Seas, I took your advice and decided it was worth it to just order it from ship's services. I called them yesterday and ordered the package dealie with a liter and 3 cans of regular (to start). Now I don't have to worry about it. :)
