Creator's Key Takeaways

You'll usually get that adjusted, and it could save you hundreds of dollars.

You're really not going to be on there long enough to take full advantage of that drink package.

You don't want to be stuck on a ship where you thought you had an unlimited drink package and you're cut off.

All of those things add up and they're free and included in the alcoholic package.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Monitor the price of the drink package before you buy, aiming for about 40% off the standard price.
โœ“Call cruise lines to adjust packages if one adult doesn't drink alcohol, potentially saving hundreds of dollars.
โœ“Examine your cruise itinerary before purchasing, as port stops may reduce the package's value.
โœ“Understand the terms and conditions of drink packages to avoid unexpected limits.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Drink package prices fluctuate and may not be the best deal. โ€” Monitor prices like the stock market and book before the cruise to get up to 40% off.
Not all adults in the cabin may drink alcohol. โ€” Call the cruise line to adjust the package, purchasing a non-alcoholic option for non-drinkers.
Port-heavy itineraries may reduce the value of the drink package. โ€” Thoroughly examine the itinerary and consider if daily drinks will add up to the package cost.
