Ogalthorpe Haywood 126 Report post Posted March 3, 2018 A quick question regarding the drink package. We haven’t been on a cruise since they started the mandatory purchase of anyone 21yo or older. My wife doesn’t drink at all. She may have 2 drinks the entire cruise. I would like to purchase one and use the “doesn’t drink due to personal preference” excuse. Do they flag the account if she does decide to purchase a cocktail or two during our cruise? We are not sharers but it does make sense for me to to get as I will get my money worth. I would get her the soda package as the compromise. Thanks in advance for any insight.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLMoran 5,195 Report post Posted March 3, 2018 I'm not sure if they would flag it should she be "caught" buying an alcoholic drink on her own sea pass card. If it's truly just one or two drinks over the entire cruise, I would guess they won't make any kind of deal out of it. The real goal of making everyone in the room buy the package if one person does is to prevent sharing of the package (which is not allowed); so if she buys her own drinks on her SeaPass card, they're probably not going to track that closely.

Yes, I should have mentioned that. It's what I had to do since my wife also doesn't drink. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lauren 26 Report post Posted March 3, 2018 We just returned from our cruise on Anthem. I had the drink package and had to purchase the Refreshment package for my husband as he just had heart bypass surgery. He purchased at least 1 drink per day and 2 drinks a couple of times and no one said a word. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
