Default Yet another wine ?

Had a wonderful Baltics cruise this summer on the Rotterdam, and sadly, none booked for the future (yet). However, after reading posts about wine cards, I got to wondering about using them during Happy Hour. Does anyone know if one "punch" of the card, would be good for the 2 for one specials? How sad, I'm already thinking about sitting at the Crow's Nest, enjoying 2 glasses of wine, and looking out at that wonderful expanse of sea. Forgive me for being "cheap" or petty

I don't know from personal experience but my guess is Yes..... you would get two glasses of wine for one punch.

No you can't use wine cards or cocktail cards during 2 for 1 happy hour. Somewhere on the daily program or something, it is actually written down. At least, that's how I remember it

Thanks for your replies.... Happy Hour is a wonderful deal, just was wondering. One just never wants to get too thirsty

Sorry -- but people tried to use the wine card during Happy Hour on the Noordam and were told -- NO.

The 2 for 1 drinks Happy Hour isn't on all ships.

Westerdam tried it -- it flopped when people found out that it was for house liquors only.

Wine card cannot be used for happy hour.

The other poster is corrrect. Not all ships have happy hour. The Panama canal cruise on Veendam in May did not. Very disappointing.
