Your drink package will include drinks up to $12 - $14 (amount depends on the ship). The amount you have already paid includes gratuities for all drinks below the limit.

 

However, if you order a drink that exceeds the package limit, you would pay gratuity on that difference.

 

For example. Assume your package limit is $12. You order a drink that costs $15. You pay $3.54 ($3 plus 18%).

Ah!! Great thanks

You would only pay gratuity when you order a drink if that drink costs more than the package allowance. In that case you would pay the difference between the cost of the drink and the package allowance, plus 18%.

Crikey it's a bit confusing. We got a deluxe drinks package included in our cruise. Have I already paid the gratuities for this in with my amount I have already paid?

They do not allow guests to bring any bottled water, soda, beer or hard liquor on board. Guests are allowed to bring two 750ml bottles of champagne or wine per stateroom. It is also my understanding that if you purchase liquor while at port, the cruise line will store it for you until the end of the cruise.

Does these need to be in your hand luggage or main baggage?

Beach and Pool Towels are available on the pool deck. You'll need to swipe your seapass card to get them. You can "trade" wet/soiled towels in for clean ones. Failure to return them results in a $20 fee (per towel) on your seapass account.

Are these free of charge?

hi all

I am due to set sail on my first cruise on Saturday. 😀😬 please could you help me with a few questions

1. We have pre paid gratuities but do we have to pay extra on top when we order drinks? (We have a drinks package)

2. May be a silly question but what do people wear for embarking the ship? Smart casual?

Thank you in advance
