Does anyone know if the Coffee cards are transferable from ship to ship if they are not used.I would like to buy 2 as we like our coffee and I would hate to throw money away if we do not finish them ☕

Just buy one, if you use up all the punches purchase another. Side note, I like to get "large" sized coffee in the morning with 2 shots of espresso, they will punch your card twice for this drink, thus the coffee card really isn't a good bargain for people like me; also on many ships they will not allow you to get frappuccino type drinks with the punch card.

I read on another post that if you are on an Oasis class ship they have self standing Starbucks  and you can use gift cards. I will be doing that on my upcoming cruise in 2 weeks on Allure I'll buy the Starbucks gift cards on land and whatever is left I can always use back home.

There should be a couple of lines on the back of the card, and if you fill out the ship or dates of travel, it will likely prevent you from re-using the card.  If you put your name instead, you might get away with re-using the card.  One server always turned over my card before he asked my name to mark on the cup.  Maybe that is all he was looking for.....

Note:  Since May, Harmony has started marking the Caribbean Coconut as "2 punches" rather than the one punch for a normal cappucino or chai tea.  So the card does get used up faster.  I don't recommend buying the coffee card when you reach Diamond level and can get cappucini in the Diamond Lounge.

Hmmm, last ship I was on (Anthem of the seas). They didn’t seem to care how large a drink I got.  I was at the Starbucks each day grabbing 2 venti lattes with 2 shots each to bring back to the missus and they only punched my card for 2 beverages!

I think this like a lot of things, @guittech, it's either hit or miss depending,  ship to ship or even barista to barista.

The last two times we got one, the crew member we bought it from marked our name and sailing date on it.  The one time we bought one via Cruise Planner, it also had our name & sail date on it.  It got used up each time as it was shared, but it wouldn't have been reusable if crew on another ship had looked.

I recently asked my TA this for my upcoming 10 day cruise in Jan. The coffee card is for that particular sailing, and not transferable.

Does the price of the coffee card ever change? Does it matter whether you buy it on cruise planner or onboard and where do you buy it onboard?

I think that's the one thing that is the same in the cruise planner as onboard....but I can be wrong. It's just what I've seen on my last cruises.
