Poleman88 Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 My wife and I will move to Diamond status after our upcoming October cruise, just wondering for our April cruise, will I be able to just purchase 1 deluxe beverage package and my wife use her 4 free drinks along with my 4 and only purchase the refreshment package? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaa Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 If you call in they will likely allow one to have DBP and the other refreshment for you to do as you suggest RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but you need to call in and request this. It can't be done online RCIfan1912 and Poleman88 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't be done online @Matt I know you may have covered this question in the past...We will be doing our 1st full Diamond B2B cruise on Wonder in November. Do the Diamond vouchers include gratuity or is it added to your SeaPass separately or should we tip directly? Thanks!! RCIfan1912 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because the bill is $0. It's common to tip $1-2 per voucher drink but tipping is personal so do whatever you feel is right. And since I see you'll be on Wonder, FYI, we never got a single paper receipt on Wonder for our D drinks in June so I would bring lots of singles if you choose to tip on your D drinks.

CrznTxn Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 When you use your free Diamond drinks there is never gratuity charged so we tip the bartender or waiter per drink. We see so many that do not and we have found that we receive stellar service for our tips. Many times the waiters will see us coming and come up and ask if we want the same as we have been having. Sure makes us feel special too. We make sure to bring plenty of $1's with us and if we do get low, customer service or the Casino will make change.

teddy Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 We bring enough ones to give a tip with each drink we get using a voucher. Even though we don’t drink alcohol, we tip for each drink. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I've had this conversation with several posters before. Going to the bank for a big envelope of singles is like a pre-cruise ritual... and then I wonder if they think I'm going to a strip club.

CrimsonCruiser Posted August 28, 2023 Report Share Posted August 28, 2023 I admit I was expecting receipts on which we could tip but we only got them once on Harmony (in Dazzles at the end of the night...and I would like to say he did NOT know that the reset time had changed)...

I was wondering about this as we will be Diamond Status after our next 2 cruises and these 7 day drink packages add up!
