Creator's Key Takeaways

On my recent 7-day cruise on the Celebrity Excel, I intentionally drank heavy just to test this out.

So, even drinking heavy, I didn't hit even the classic package break even point.

Drink packages are not about how much you can drink. They're about how consistent you can drink throughout your entire cruise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Buy the premium package if you drink five to six premium cocktails daily.
Buy the classic package if you drink six to seven drinks per day, mostly beer or basic cocktails.
Buy the non-alcoholic package if you drink coffee all day and want juices, smoothies, and water.
Skip all packages if you drink two to three drinks per day, have many port days, and are not a consistent drinker.

YouTube Video Description

Are drink packages worth it on Celebrity Cruises? In this video, I break down the Classic Drink Package, Premium Drink Package, and Non-Alcoholic Package using real prices, real menus, and real cruise math from my recent sailing on Celebrity Xcel. I went through the actual drink menus across the ship, compared package pricing vs paying à la carte, and even used my own 7-day drink totals to show what happens when you really test the math. That means water, coffee, tea, juices, sodas, beer, wine, cocktails, and more. In this video, I cover: -Celebrity Cruises Classic Drink Package -Celebrity Cruises Premium Drink Package -Celebrity Cruises Non-Alcoholic Package -what each package includes -what each package does not include -break-even math examples -whether the upgrade from Classic to Premium is worth it -whether a drink package actually saves money -who should skip the package completely If you're planning a Celebrity cruise and trying to decide whether to buy a beverage package, this video will help you avoid wasting money and choose the option that actually fits your drinking habits. ⭐Check out my Website: https://www.tomsunday.com/ ► SOCIAL MEDIAS X: https://twitter.com/iamtomsunday Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iamtomsunday Video Chapters 00:00 - Intro 00:42 - Drink package details 01:20 - Ala carte pricing 02:00 - Break even numbers 03:45 - Let's test this out 04:40 - Common mistakes 05:32 - My advice to you #celebritycruises #cruise #cruiseship #cruisetips
