New price list for drinks...few more questions

[shellie62]

I found a price list from the celebrity website:
Alcoholic beverage prices:
•Aperitifs: $5.50
•Standard alcohol: $5.50 and up
•Premium alcohol: $5.75 and up
•Cocktails: $4.95 and up
•Wine glass: $5.95 and up
•Champagne glass: $6.95 and up
•Domestic beer: $4.50
•Imported beer: $4.50 and up
Non-Alcoholic Beverage prices:
•Soft drink (glass): $1.25
•Soft drink (can): $1.95
•Water: $2.50 and up
•Drinks purchased in souvenir glass: $8.95
Coffee, tea, and milk:
Complimentary onboard all ships in all lounges except for Cova Cafe.

Note: all prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. Prices are subject to change and 15% gratuity is additional

Does this seem correct to you previous cruisers. My question is if you do not purchase a drink package and you pay as you go..when ordering a drink like rye and coke do you pay for the alchohol and then the pop on top of the price or does the standard alchohol price include mix.

Thanks Shelley

As I mentioned in your prior thread, those do seem like the correct prices.

And, no, you pay for a rum and coke; not a rum and a coke. The cruise lines want your money, but they also want your business. It is no different than buying a drink in any bar or restaurant. The only difference is that 15% is added for a mandatory gratuity.

Failing to display or provide an accurate price or price list could land the retailer in this case the pub with a hefty fine. should someone report the pub to trading standards and if they decide to prosecul.

I am fine with those prices. Afer all a drink allways tastes better on a cruiseship.
