Creator's Key Takeaways

One of the questions that comes up when taking a cruise is, is it worth the money to add a beverage package before sailing?

Not all cruise beverage packages are created equal, are they? No, they're not.

A drink package is good for those who enjoy a variety of drinks throughout the day, tend to order more expensive drinks, and prefer the convenience of having unlimited options.

The TransCanada Trail is 29,500 kilometers of trail that runs from coast to coast to coast in Canada.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Read the fine print of your cruise beverage package to see what's included.
Calculate how many drinks you typically consume daily to determine if a package is worth it.
Factor in service fees when calculating the total cost of drinks.
Check if pre-booking a beverage package offers a discount compared to purchasing on board.
Use the TransCanada Trail interactive map to find a section near you or a place you're visiting.
