Carnival’s Drink Package Is A BIG PROBLEM

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator examines the potential downsides of Carnival Cruise Line's Cheers drink package, which costs approximately $60 per person per day. A primary concern highlighted is the strict limitation of fifteen alcoholic beverages per person within a twenty-four hour window starting at 6:00 a.m. The creator argues that instead of preventing intoxication, this cap encourages passengers to view the limit as a challenge to get their money's worth. This behavior can lead to aggressive or reckless conduct, including passengers passing out or engaging in fights. Furthermore, the creator notes that the limitation leads to passengers sharing drinks with others to avoid waste, which makes it difficult for the cruise line to monitor alcohol consumption and ensure passenger safety. The video also mentions specific rules, such as the requirement that all adults in a cabin must purchase the package and that the package typically does not apply on the first day of the cruise. The creator concludes by suggesting that Carnival should remove the drink limit to prevent people from feeling the need to challenge themselves, noting that allowing passengers to purchase additional drinks could also increase company profits.
