On our bundle, we got the drink package for $52 and Voom for an extra $10.  What I discovered was that the 18% was only on the drink package.

Just called and got the Voom & Deluxe Drink Package and the Refreshment Package, totaling $418, including gratuities. I did a drink calculator and it came out to be about 410, but that was JUST with drinks, not with the VOOM, so I think we'll come out ahead, especially over the cost if we signed up onboard.  And then just the fact that we won't have to worry about budget, etc. once on board.

So I'm gathering that they have made a lot of progress, but some areas of the "Perfect Day at CocoCay" island will still be under construction?  (Coco Beach Club, etc?)

We'll be there on July 10th (our 15th wedding anniversary!) so just wondering what we area we should hit.  And for those that have been before, do you find an area and plant there or do you move around?  Prob depends on if you get a cabana, etc.?

Thanks for any insights!

Couple of questions....

Would love to snag the savings of advance booking of the "Deluxe Beverage Drink Package."  Seems to save $15-20/day (on the Majesty for a July sailing).

So the hubby has been sober for 17 years, but doesn't mind that I drink. I've heard that there are exceptions to the "both in cabin must purchase the same plan" rule. We would be fine w/ the hubs getting the Classic Beverage package if they would allow that.  And can supply a letter from his sponsor or doc as needed.

Our questions:

* I'm sure this would be tricky to book online, since they usually require (from my understanding) that both people in cabin must purchase the same package. So call somewhere to book?

* Are gratuities included in either the Deluxe Drink Package and/or the Classic Beverage Package?  I've seen mixed info around the interwebby on this.

* And if we add internet access (VOOM!) - do we have to add to BOTH in cabin or can we just add to one of the packages?

Thanks!
