Ken, what is the Costa smoking policy???
Do you know the prices for the speciality restaurant(s)
Whats the prices of drinks onboard???
What is the onboard currency?? $$$ or Euro??
Does passengers booked with Costa benefit should the price of the cruise go down after booking??
Sounds great, Lars. Enjoy and would love to read your review upon your return.

A. Costa's smoking policy is smoking on your balcony and in the casino, same as it's parent company Carnival.
B. Costa's Specialty restaurant no longer has a flat fee. It is now a' la carte. I don't have pricing of the individual items.
C. I'll give you an idea of prices we paid for drinks on the Costa Magica 2 years ago.
Appletini US$7.00,
Mai Tai, US$6.50,
Virgin drinks were US$4.25,
Glass of Chardonay, US$10.00
Glass of Beauola, US$5.75,
Juices by the glass, US$2.00 each,
Mojito, US$6.00. You can convert those US prices to Euros.
D. The Euro is the currency onboard. Dollars when the ships are sailing from the US and S. America.
E. Yes, Costa passengers will benefit from a cruise fare reduction after a deposit held booking has been made, but not after final payment.
