Creator's Key Takeaways
On nearly every major cruise line, if one adult in a stateroom purchases the alcoholic drink package, every other adult of legal drinking age staying in that same cabin is also required to purchase it.
The easiest way to decide if the package is worth it is to calculate your personal break-even point.
Don't just count cocktails. Consider your morning coffee, bottled water throughout the day, soft drinks with meals, fresh juices, mocktails, and everything else that's included.
