Hi all,
This will be my first time on a cruise since the invention of drink packages where I will NOT be buying the deluxe drink package; sticking with the refreshments package. I had not admitted I was an alcoholic and gotten help prior to my last cruise.
I know that mocktails are included in the package and I've seen 5 of them listed on the Fleetwide menu but necessarily on specific menus. Are all items on the Fleetwide menu literally available anywhere on any of the ships in the fleet?
I've also seen O'Doul's and Heineken 00 listed as non-alcoholic beers on the Fleetwide menu, but not listed at every place that serves drinks.
I'm going to be on the Wonder of the Seas for the 7/16 sailing. Do I have to go specifically to Playmakers if I want the non-alcoholic beers? Or are they everywhere because I see them listed on the Fleetwide menu as well.
Anyone know if they have dealcoholized wines on the ships? Rather than make wine without alcohol, which tastes like juice, dealcoholized wines have the alcohol removed after making the wine so they are actually quite tasty and complex.
How about some of these specialty cocktails? Some sound great and only have one type of liquor in them (some have more) and I'm wondering if anyone has had success asking for that cocktail and having them hold the liquor.
As someone in recovery that has gone 27 months without a drink as of sail time, it's great seeing expanded options for non-drinkers who still want the cruise vibe. Just wondering how I can expand on the very limited mocktail and beer options.
TIA!
