I am the first to admit Free at Sea is a wallet drain as there are so many hidden costs on top of taxes and gratuities for food and beverages consumed. The key to WINNING is to purchase Free at Sea PLUS which is the real bargain and I take advantage of all of these perks on board and walk off the ship with ZERO balance bill. This package is inexpensive and priceless.
Why am I so unhappy with this change to More (less) At Sea in 2025?
No more...
Bottled Water, Pellegrino, Fresh Squeezed Juice, Premium Brands Starbucks (no limits) Champaign, and Bottles of Wine at restaurants breakfast, lunch and dinner (it is not how much you drink; No need for an abacus, for us it is the quality of what we consume, I like Red, he likes White. We don't want to drink anything we would not drink at home on vacation, perhaps something we do not care for, and or something that has been re-corked for who knows how long.) Unlimited Wi-Fi - this is a necessity especially in case of emergency, make phone calls and stay connected. 4 Specialty dining -- We never eat at the buffet $50 0ff Shore Excursions for passengers 1,2 Gratuities are included for all on-board purchases. So I tip cash at my leisureWhat are your thoughts? Have you purchased Free at Sea Plus or any other cuise packages that were revamped?
