Why More Cruisers Are Ditching the Drink Package—And What They’re Doing Instead
Momenti chiave
Riassunto editoriale
The creator explores why many Royal Caribbean cruisers are choosing to avoid expensive beverage packages in favor of alternative cost-saving strategies. He notes that the deluxe beverage package can cost over $1,400 for a couple on a seven night cruise, which represents a significant upfront expense. One option for loyal passengers is utilizing daily drink vouchers provided to Diamond level members in the Crown and Anchor Society. Another method involves qualifying for Prime status in the casino loyalty program to access unlimited drinks at the casino bar, though this requires significant gambling activity. For those who prefer not to commit to a package, the creator suggests paying as you go, which may be more economical for light drinkers. He also mentions the possibility of finding a drink card offered on board, though these are unpredictable. Additional tips include bringing non-alcoholic beverages or wine on board, or booking a suite to access happy hour selections in the suite lounge. Ultimately, the creator advises that if a passenger does decide to purchase a package, they should always do so before the sailing to avoid much higher on board prices.
