Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival came out with this news and they said hey uh Merry Christmas everybody Christmas is just around the corner we got a gift for you we're raising prices again

I am a frequent purchaser as a matter of fact I purchase it literally every Cruise so it's uh an unwelcome gift right before Christmas no warning whatsoever

I did the math and if you take 1375 times six I believe it is you get to about 8250 so you know that's roughly the price of a drink at Alchemy

I know that's difficult for some people and those people that were right on the fence of purchasing it or not I'm guessing this might make you go the other way

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

CARNIVAL CRUISE LINES, did their best SCROOGE impersonation, dramatically increasing the price of their drink package on 6 day or longer cruises by almost 18% with no added benefits to the current package. Why would they give consumers no warning of the price increase or allow them a date to purchase the program at the old price? They have done that in the past, but this time the BIG increase in price came with little or no warning. For those who enjoy mixed drinks, the break even point for making the package 'worth it' is SIX quality cocktails, not difficult to do for many...but will it change your mind on purchasing the drink package?
