Thank you for your reply.


Assuming that all the ships soft drinks will therefore be standardised and that if there are charges for cans on the Platiunum ships, Celebration & Dream that the Majesty & Spirit will also follow suit, as there does not appear to be a charge for passengers with AI at the moment who have cans on those non platinum ships?


Look forward to seeing more drinks menus from travellers when they return from their cruises.

Celebration and Dream have a much bigger choice of cocktails, does that mean that eventually Majesty will have the same cocktail list, cider and beer choices as well?

I am on Majesty in September and have paid £69 each for AI.

Am also on Majesty in March and have paid £199 each for AI on this cruise and after seeing the Dream menu am annoyed that Dream's drinks menu is so much more extensive, platinum or not!!

Still confusing & until we see menus from people who bring them back with them, we still won't know. I know the choice on the Spirit was not as comprehensive as the Celebration when we have been on both ships. We certainly found plenty to drink on the Spirit though.

These are things such as cider and certain cocktails. I'm sorry if there's any confusion.

Thanks,

to my eye

they have said that drinks menus HAS (already) been (m)aligned(sorry) across the fleet…….apart from some LITTLE differences??

it would appear that the drinks menus posted on here are the current ones

dream menu

celebration menu

majesty menu (post 15)

I dont consider charging an ai supplement for soft drinks cans of 95p on dream/celebration but not on majesty/spirit to be a LITTLE difference

I don’t consider charging (on average) 20p more per drink (across the entire menu) on dream/celebration, than on majesty/sprit to be a LITTLE difference

Over the course of a weeks cruise this will make a GREAT BIG difference! (Especially for families) (what are you saying to me Thoms? You don’t want families on your platinum ships?...is that right? eh?

Platinum ships = more expensive, and that is it! you don’t get anything else for your money?

We had a few discussions on here at the time the refurb was first mentioned and many people's feelings were that the refurbishments were long overdue and should be routine as with other cruise lines and were not a reason to call ships platinum or to hike prices up. People are not fools and they will come to their own conclusions about whether it is value for money.
