Creator's Key Takeaways

Those of you that purchase shipboard beverage packages on NCL have a one-mon reprieve to continue using those packages at Great Strup Key.

NCL caused quite a bit of controversy last fall when they announced that the onboard drink package would no longer be honored on Great Strup K starting March 1st, 2026.

Cruisers headed to Great Surup Key right now on current NCL cruises are reporting that NCL will continue to honor the onboard drink packages through the month of March.

Who knows if this is a long-term reversal or just a short-term fix.
