Unlimited Beverage - is there a list?

Here's a list from 2013.

 

http://mrose.org/cc/BeverageBrandsList2013.pdf

 

Keep in mind that this list was BEFORE they changed the UBP to EVERYTHING $10 and under.

 

Most everything on this list will be included. There may be a handful of ultra-premium liquors which go above $10, like Hennessy XO or Don Julio 1942... but I"m not even sure about that.

 

Short answer: SoCo and any Vodka you drink at home are included.

Southern Comfort is included (normally costs $7.50 for a 1.5 oz serving).

 

The vodkas listed in the menu are:

 

  • call brands ($6.50): Smirnoff, Svedka (+Citron, +Colada)
  • premium brands ($7.50): Absolut, Russian Standard, Stolichnaya (+Vanil), Tito's Handmade, TY KU Soju (:confused:), Voli (+Lemon)
  • super premium brands ($8.50): Belvedere, Grey Goose (+Cherry Noir, +Orange, +Poire), Prairie Organic, Ultimat

All of these cost less than $10, so they should be included, but you will have to order each of them one after the other to be absolutely sure. :D And please report back!

Stoli Elit is included as well. If unsure just ask the bar staff before ordering and they will check the price.

I have searched and not been able to find one. Specifically looking to find out if Southern Comfort is included and which vodkas are.... thanks in advance!

 

Just as an FYI and nothing more...

 

If there was a list, then it would not be "unlimited" as it would be limited by/to the list.

 

Also...it is NOT unlimited (so yes, there is a list); the U stands for "ultimate".

They have not released a more current list, and maybe they don't need one, if the $10 limit is now the only rule. They continue to mention excluded "designated Super Premium brands (subject to change)" in the T&C, suggesting that there is a list somewhere, but this may just be vestigial language left over from the previous incarnation of the package.

One very little minor miniscule change here:

 

The TITLE should be ULTIMATE and not UNLIMITED Beverage ---

 

In reality it probably does not make much difference at some point -

After all who is counting and if it is NCL their Ultimate bean counting

machine is going to be working overtime and probably will need a

lubrication drink to keep up with the counting.

 

One of the posts somewhere in CC commented that NCL has a 15

daily drink limit for the UBP - but no one has come back to affirm

that fact. I would suppose that one could get cut off if a gurney has

to be brought around to take you to your cabin or the medical center !

 

Well so much for small details - "Yo Ho Ho 16 men on a dead man's

chest and a bottle of rum" !

I can confirm firsthand that there is not a 15 drink limit. If anyone doubts that, merely read the terms. It's not there because it doesn't exist.

Thanks, that was my concern: the "designated Super Premium brands (subject to change)" clause that is still there, but doesn't make sense with the new guidelines. Common sense would dictate that SPB drinks over $10 would obviously be excluded, otherwise they would be part of the package.
