Creator's Key Takeaways

we wanted to figure out if it was worth it for us and yeah we've got some stuff to share today

if you have four drinks per day at let's say an average of $10 per drink then that's $40 plus some gratuity on top of that

currently Royal Caribbean has no such limit on their deluxe beverage package

we just don't want to worry about the mounting bill at the end of the cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Use the drink package estimator tool to determine if it's worth it for you
โœ“Check your cruise planner for realistic pricing as prices change
โœ“If one adult doesn't drink, ask Royal Caribbean about exceptions for non-drinkers
โœ“You can wait a day or two after boarding to purchase the all-inclusive package
