Yes it is true. Why would you want one? I have no idea unless you like a lot of speciality coffee - think Starbucks, etc ...

Thanks for the info. I thought I read somewhere that the cards are also for "better" freshly brewed coffee - not the concentrate. My husband is an avid coffee drinker - but not for the specialty drinks. Just trying to decide whether to purchase one or not.
I read someone's review and s/he said that regular coffee was not included. You had to pay for it.
Just passing it on; don't know first hand as we have never bought the card.

Just returned from the Coral Princess and I bought a coffee card for $24 good for 15 specialty coffees - this worked out to $1.60 per vs $2.10 per if you bought them individually.

So there is a limit on them unlike the soda cards. Interesting.

Is "regular" coffee no charge throughout the ship?
All you want in the Horizon Court and the dining rooms.
