Thanks. Yes, OBC can be used for 'Anything you purchase onboard' with the exception of Casino or Medical. OBC can only be used once onboard, unlike some other cruise lines it cannot be used for pre purchasing before embarkation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TowandaUK Posted March 16 #6 Share Posted March 16 I think most of ours will go on the daily gratuity charges. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rakkor Posted March 16 #7 Share Posted March 16 We usually buy the Wine packages pre-cruise, but having been disappointed with the selection in the Commodore's collection on our last two cruises we're going to wait until we board before purchasing. We've a huge amount of OBC because of the triple OBC special offer, for November's QA cruise, which we'll struggle to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NE John Posted March 16 #8 Share Posted March 16 Also proactively ask your sommelier or M’d if there are any wine tastings happening. Another good use of OBC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have extra OBC, consider a pass to the thermal suite. That's my favorite indulgence on board QE or QV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
