    If I buy the refreshment package for my Symphony OTS cruise I get the following, "Premium coffees and teas". I don't drink coffee but what premium teas are available?

    Staples such as Chia is normally available. Typically the premium tea is Tazo brand bags. Don't think I've ever seen anything along the lines of Starbuck's style with juices and such.

    So my bid still shows Pending, sail date is Friday. I tried to modify it to adjust the bid up slightly to give us a better shot, but it keeps saying "Not successful" when I try. Think it's a glitch in the system, or a sign that it's been accepted but just not finalized?

    Do you have any other bids? If those are showing expired you might be lucky.

    It’s $5 for a case of water delivered to your room.  Well worth the price instead of the hassle of carrying a 12 pack of water just to save a $1 or $2.

    Wrong cruise line. With Royal, on sale a case of 24 cans/bottles of spring water runs almost $17 factoring in the gratuity.  

  4. I'll also suggest Wonderland.

    Will also say to be open to your "culinary experience guide" and indicate any dislikes. Also, look over the menu and decide on any must try items and tell your guide. Finally, if you do try something that your really liked, don't be afraid to ask for another round. Keep in mind the appetizer items are what I'd call small bites. Good example, the Liquid Lobster is just a spoonful.

    Unless the hassle at check-in of checking 2 vs 3 and vax vs "up to date" would be too much. Which I could understand.

    Think this is the exact reason. Not all guests aren't going to understand the differences and terminal agents are going to work in their own bubbles.

    Guess we'll find out the fallout when Carnival's policy kicks in.

    Worst case Carnival could have a third party mRNA vaccination clinic setup at the terminal to provide boosters. CDC does consider one "up to date" second after getting the booster.

    We all have the DBP so it really makes no difference to us.  BUT I will tell anyone who wants a particular mixed drink to probably hit up a bar on the way to dinner.  

    If you're referring to dining in Coastal Kitchen it wouldn't matter hitting up a bar first. The Suite Lounge bar carries just about all same spirits as any other bar does. Key thing is the selection of spirits with the complimentary Happy Hour cocktails. Only real catch is I don't think they have access to a blender.

    But cocktails?  Aren’t they complementary only during happy hours 5-7 or thereabouts?  And they’re also limited in selection no?

    Same deal for cocktails, complementary during happy hour. Correct about a limited selection of spirits, no clue what the current selections are.

    Is this only for Star class which comes with a comped drink package?

    I'll be in a GS which is Sky class on Allure in the fall and would love to take advantage if able.

    On Oasis class ships. From 11a-11p soda, water, beer, and wine is available from the Suite Lounge bar. Drinks from Coastal Kitchen come from the Suite Lounge bar on Oasis class ships.
