Creator's Key Takeaways

I personally always get the drink package whenever selling just so I have no thoughts on what the prices are.

I think it's an absolute no-brainer. If I drink five, it's already paid for itself.

I do think that Royal Caribbean's drink package is a pretty good one.

That is my biggest tip is that to book these packages before on board.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Book drink packages before sailing to get pre-cruise discounts of 20-40%.
✓Check for random sales and deals daily after booking.
✓If you share a room with someone 21+, you must purchase the same package.
✓Consider the Cafe Select card for $31 flat if you only care about specialty coffees.

Choosing the right package without blowing the budget — Review what's included in each package and calculate based on your drinking habits.
Having to buy the same package as a roommate — Discuss with your roommate and figure out a solution if one doesn't drink.
