If you get a mini suite, you get two TVs, so you can have your own remote control ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseVA Posted January 13, 2022 #127 Share Posted January 13, 2022 On our October cruise we ordered drinks from the cabin quite a bit, like daily, those & everything else we ordered to the cabin arrived in less than 10 minutes. Even specialty coffee in the AM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to posts on other threads, the info is not available via the app. If you want to know, you need to ask a bartender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judla Posted January 14, 2022 #134 Share Posted January 14, 2022 This will be our first time having a drink package (the standard one) and we aren't sure how this works. Do you get a card they stamp every time you get a drink? How many alcoholic drinks and how many non-alcoholic drinks are allowed? We are booked on the Celerity Apex. Thank you for helping us sort this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for helping us sort this out. There is no punch card or anything with Celebrity. You simply use your Seapass card when ordering drinks - it's indicated on the card which Beverage package you have - which in your case appears to be the Classic package. Celebrity also does not impose a firm limit on number of drinks like Princess does. Have fun - Apex is a gorgeous ship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YepI realize that. I'm just saying I don't think the drink order is logged on your app if you order it at the bar like it is if you order it through the app. Certainly seems it wouldn't be that hard for them to do, but I don't think they've gotten that far with the app yet.

Yes you do. When you go back and check your order history on your app though it will only show drinks ordered through the app. Not the ones you ordered at the bar in person. To know your count you'd have to ask the bartender. Edited January 14, 2022 by PMGS247 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T&C used to say you pay the full price if over $12, however bars have been charging just the difference for a long time. I guess they finally changed the T&C to say just pay the difference.

If not we'll just keep asking every time we order drinks. I guess if you can easily keep track of your drinks on the Medallion, Princess would be afraid you'd keep drinking until you reach 15. Seems purposeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare fpsphil Posted January 30, 2022 #142 Share Posted January 30, 2022 My experience on the Majestic with the drink package. By the end of the cruise most of the crew would recognize me and already knew I had the drink package and didn't even end up ringing anything up at all. But of course that was with only 900 people aboard. YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Medallion is used when you are not in your cabin. We were on Sky in November and ordered various drinks in our cabin via the TV, and there was no extra charge.We had the PP package.

Well, you are ordering drinks (and food as well if you want) via the TV, and they are delivered to your room. I would call that room service.
