Buying A Cruise Drink Package On Your Ship? We Need To Talk.

Editorial Summary

The creator discusses the financial implications of purchasing beverage packages while aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. Using a recent experience on the Star of the Seas as a reference, the creator notes that buying a drink package once onboard can cost approximately $120 per person per night. This approach is described as a mistake because pre-booking the package before the cruise begins can significantly reduce the daily cost. According to the creator, pre-booked rates can drop to as low as $50 or $60 per person per day. While drink packages do offer savings compared to purchasing individual beverages, waiting until arrival on the ship leads to much higher total expenses. The creator concludes by advising travelers to always pre-book and to monitor for discounts even after an initial booking is made. Because bookings can often be canceled and rebooked without penalty, passengers are encouraged to look for better deals throughout the planning process.
