k2125girl Posted May 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 31, 2018 We are booked on a cruise February 2019 - Rhapsody of the Seas. The drink package isn't available for purchase. Normally we have these booked by now... Any thoughts? I'm wondering if this cruise is going to be cancelled ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dswallow Posted May 31, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I haven't seen drink packages available yet for any 2019 cruise I have booked. I wouldn't be particularly concerned about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boscobeans Posted May 31, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I was told by Crown and Anchor that beverage packages for our Feb. 2019 won't be open until November.. Will keep checking anyway. Probably will show up earlier that that. bosco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin can Posted May 31, 2018 #8 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Our August 2019 cruise has full dining options available but no drinks packages. I was wondering if there was a set time out when they become available or are they released in batches. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boscobeans Posted May 31, 2018 #9 Share Posted May 31, 2018 After my last post ( a few minutes ago ) just to check I went on line and was now able to book beverage packages-dining packages and excursions. All done . Great one less thing to think about.. Anthem 2/3/19 Cape Liberty bosco:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biker19 Posted May 31, 2018 #11 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Strange that Fed 2019 will not be available until November but April 2019 became available today. The C&A (or RCI CSR) answer will usually be the safe answer of 90 days out, but as has been reported on various threads about this, actual availability varies.

Normally we have these booked by now... Any thoughts? I'm wondering if this cruise is going to be cancelled ! Hi K2125girl :) My next sailing is 8 months away, February 3rd, 2019. Just today, May 31st 2018, beverage packages became available in my planner. Check your cruise planner often. I typically check the cruise planner once in the morning and once in the evening. I always alert my roll call when anything becomes available in the planner; it is also a good idea to peek in on your roll call from time to time for any updates or important info. Have a terrific day! :) Edited May 31, 2018 by PortSideCruzan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorben-Hendrik Posted May 31, 2018 #13 Share Posted May 31, 2018 It varies very much as to when it becomes available.....different from cruise to cruise - called dynamic availability:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st5310 Posted May 31, 2018 #14 Share Posted May 31, 2018 You don't have to book a beverage package in advance. Why not wait until you're aboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merion_Mom Posted June 1, 2018 #23 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Thanks for the heads-up on this thread. My January Grandeur cruises now show availability for shore excursions and beverage packages. Still "no" on dining reservations. Same for my February Vision cruise. Beverages but no shore excursions for February Jewel cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3monkeys4me Posted June 1, 2018 #24 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Beverage packages just became available for our 3/19 Ovation sailing, Excursions, Voom and spa reservations have been available since I booked a few weeks ago. Dining is not available yet. Edit: Actually, just the deluxe package is available for beverages. No refreshment or soda package listed yet.
