The old alcohol question - Page 2

We are taking RC Rhapsody of the Seas in November. What are bar prices for mixed drinks and wine? Do they still sell a drink card for alcoholic drinks or just soft drinks? What do soft drinks cost individually?

We bought some Jamaican Rum Punch in Montego Bay and when we boarded it they took it, but delivered it to us Saturday AM, so we had all day and night Saturday to consume it...

Hi Everyone

I agree with CruisySuzi that RCCL is cracking down some on their alcohol consumption policy. If you go to their website their is a warning there. If you click it, it will take you to their new policy. If you read their new boarding pass rules it states it in there. This may just be away to get some people to comply. I have been on a lot of cruises and I think the idea here is just to keep people safe.

We have cruised on Princess and Carnival Spirit and took wine on and paid a corkage fee, but I'm gathering from reading RCI info that they won't allow it, & are going to look for bottles in the luggage. Maybe they want more $$ or are afraid of people falling off as has been said before.

Hey dallasmom

It may be both They want more money and are interested in the safty issue at the same time. They win both ways.
