Will HAL take my Alcohol from my cabin?

...imho, the martini prices are very reasonable. I just paid 11.50 for a martini last night in a local restaurant.

Karen, I spend anwhere from $9-$13 for a HUGE martini in one of the French Quarter's nicest places. http://www.bombayclub.com But, we're talking probably 6 or 7 ounces!!!!

 

I indulged in the 3 oz. "martini of the day" on the Volendam. Five bucks. That seemed reasonable... :)

Bombay Club, here I come! That's a very healthy martini, my friend!! LOL

 

If not a martini of some sort, I'm a vodka girl and Grey Goose is my fav. Not sure if I'll be purchasing a liter onboard, but a $5 martini, now we're talking! ;)

BRAVO....the corporate decision makers don't have any idea what is needed aboard the ships..only the crew and customers are aware of the problems.....

If drinks were reasonably priced, ie $2.50 per cocktail, and $2.00 per beer more peolple would drink...then the more they drink the more they spend in the stores, the casino, etc. It's a win-win, but corporate can't seem to grasp anything that makes sense....

And how long would it be before the HAL ships became the new party ships with cheap booze prices? Do we want the issues of drunks "falling" overboard that have plagued another line? It certainly would not be win-win in my opinion.

The Bombay Club is OUT OF THIS WORLD. Heavy dark wood, green carpeting, very masculine. (my interpretation, anyway).

 

Upon asking, they'll give you a martini menu, which is mind boggling....if you're into exotic mixes, you'll be like a kid in a candystore!

 

I'll tell you what.....we have ALOT of folks visiting us for a day in New Orleans....this is a MUST STOP. (Less than a block off of Bourbon, but could be a mile away...the place is MELLOW)

 

Sorry for posting the wrong link earlier. ;)
