PaperSniper4 Posted August 22, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2021 We'd be happy if it does. <g> Anything else we need to know about the Always Included beverage package? I suspect beverages (martini, wine, etc) cannot be delivered to our cabin but can only be ordered at a bar? Thanks. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted August 22, 2021 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Does not include room service and mini-bar. does include espresso-based drinks like cappuccino, caffe latte, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted August 22, 2021 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Yes the speciality coffees and teas are included. You are correct the beverage packages do not cover drinks from room service. Also the mini bat in your stateroom is not included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaperSniper4 Posted August 22, 2021 Author #4 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Thanks for those replies! I was hoping as much. We have the Silhouette booked for a October 2022 TA and we are thinking of adding a Bermuda cruise on the Summit summer 2022. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayleeman Posted August 22, 2021 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Ask your cabin attendant to empty your frig if you don't want to get things from the minibar. Not only gives you a space to keep things cold, it also eliminates the chance of being billed erroneously and standing in line to get the charges removed.

I always do that and wonder how many other guests do the same thing. Can you imagine the space needed to store all of those mini-bar items? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's no charge for minibar items we will likely consume, and hence, no bookkeeping issue to complicate life for cabin steward/butler, we'll have them leave just those items.

I couldn't agree more, particularly where minors are involved. Even before AI it was an issue when a CBP perk for those in a cabin couldn't be changed to the non-alcoholic for kids and those choosing not to drink alcohol. Rather mean of Celebrity IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both drink sparkling water with our meals, and the daily 3 drinks pp with our "status" were more than enough, even when we added mineral water to take with us on excursions. I've tried changing the CBP to free wi-fi -- no dice.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may use about 15 minutes of or Captains Club internet perk. That's always on the last day when I print off our airline boarding tickets. IMO, I liked it (pre AI) when we could choose our perks. Wi-Fi, Gratuities, CBPs or OBCs. All or just what you prefer. But above my pay grade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked my reservation again, since I remembered grats, CBP and OBC. Turns out that the OBC is from my TA, so indeed -- we have the grats, CBP and surf wi-fi "included". Before this new "trend" by X, we always opted for OBC from X, and we got free grats from the TA, along with some OBC. It was a win-win for us.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted August 22, 2021 #22 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Can't you opt for the "sail only", or whatever X calls cruise without AI? I have seen it on line, I think under the "menu" option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen it on line, I think under the "menu" option. From what others seem to say, it is not easy to get that option? AI will work very well for me, I will use and get my $$ worth from all of the inclusions. But I have to agree, I really hope that Celebrity will review this down the road and perhaps offer a "menu" to customers who will not and do not want/need all of this, especially folks who do not drink and will not use wi-fi. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
