Beverage Package?

[jessed]

We will be on the Joy out of New York. We have the beverage package - does it start while in port at New York the first day?

TIA

Yes.  It starts the moment you board.  While in Port of NY until you get out into Int'l waters you will be subject to the NY State sales tax on the value of any drink.  The taxes will be charged to your onboard account.
