We are due to cruise on Grandeur in August. We have booked the cruise from the UK. We see that the beverage package prices, shown in £ when we log in to our booking, are inflated by about 20% compared to the advertised beverage package prices shown in $ on the US site. For example, the current price for the Ultimate beverage package is £70.54 (which based on the current exchange rate of $1.28/£ is $90). The current price for the same package on the US site is currently $74.99.
These are apparently 'discounted' 'pre-cruise' prices.
Can anyone currently or recently on-board, please tell me if the Ultimate beverage package is discounted once we arrive on-board?
Incidentally, the excursion prices seem to be similar in price (allowing for the exchange rate) whether in £ or $. The price differential appears to affect only the dining and beverage packages. Is this an error?
