"$75 for 10 drinks" question please

[kapeavey]

Has anyone sailed the Brilliance of the Seas recently and knows if they offered this drink card on their sailing?

Thanks!

If it is offered it would be on the 7+ day sailings.

Not on our cruise. Baltics in May 2018.

 

Drink card offers are related to how well alcohol sales are going on your cruise. The price, if offered could be $65-$85. It's usually offered near the end of the cruise.

I’ve seen it (and purchased it!) on 5-night sailings.

Bartender told me they only sell them on 7+ - another inconsistent RCCL program :-)

If you get the card, make sure you only use it on things that cost more than $7.50 or you lose money on the deal!

Actually it was offered on our Brilliance Baltic cruise in May and on the TA before that in April. We bought one on the TA and our cruise friends bought two on the Baltic cruise. $75 + 18% tax.

Anyone know the max amount allowed on the drink purchase?

Hoping they have this on our 12 night vision of the seas cruise in September

Offered on day 6 of 12 of the British Isles June 21st sailing.

However, there is zero guarantee that it is offered on any sailing on any ship... it's at the sole discretion of on board management on a specific sailing to drum up more business.

Same as the Deluxe package on that sailing, usually $12 or $13 for US based sailings.

Hey now, don't call it a tax - it's grats for that hard working bartender.

[PhoenixCruiser]

It was offered on our recent Freedom cruise, available either late Wednesday or Thursday morning, sailing ended on a Saturday.

How do they notify you that the card is available? Will it be in the compass or is there a sign in the bars?

I've seen both.

 

Also, you can ask at any (and every) bar.

Yep, that was a brain cramp! I meant to say 18% grats!

Sometime it really helps to ask as they don't openly advertise it, generally from my experience it is available the day after they no longer offer the drink package, normally the drink package offer end day 4 of a 7 night cruise.

I have seen it offered on 5 night cruises after day 3. As stated it all is dependent on ship and sailing,. not something i would count on

I purchased the 10 drink card on Vision on the Aug 6th cruise. It was $85 and there was no 18% gratuity added(no idea why).

 

You could use it to purchase any drink up to $12

Great memory, I totally forgot. :cool:

 

Went back and looked at the compass and there it was on Day 7. I bet I just overlooked it. Probably would have purchased!

Has any one heard about the 10 drink card on Symphony of the Seas

[johnjen]

Question on this. Is the card ONLY available for purchase on board, or can we get them online? Or is it both?

Only on board on select ships/cruises.
