Awesome news and thanks for the response. We will keep the drink package in his name for the trip.

Yes he had no drink package but no charge card restrictions on his sea pass. Only one bartender and the pool bar gave him a hard time twice. every other bartender greeted him warmly and served him and a few times he didn't even get charged for the juice he ordered. although they may have recognized him bring the son of the parents who tip cash even time they order drinks.

We are sailing on Oasis this fall and we purchased a refreshment package for our 11 year old son. He doesn't drink soda but he likes juice, smoothies, and shakes so we figure it would be good value and maybe he can get a can of coke for mommy once or twice too. My wife and I prefer to purchase our Alcohol drinks Ala carte so we didn't buy any drink packages for ourselves. My question is, will our son be able to get his own drinks by himself lets say a shake at Johnny rockets or maybe a mock-tail or smoothie at the pool bar or should we have the package moved to one of our names and order beverages for him each time so they don't hassle him each time. One time at the pool bar last cruise my son tried to order pineapple juice and was denied and the bartender told him one of his parent needed to be with him because he needs to pay since he didn't have a drink package. Not sure if this was just a disgruntled bartender or he was enforcing ship policy that kids cant buy drinks with the sea pass because other bartenders served him juice and charged his card no problem.
