Creator's Key Takeaways

if you are looking to save money on food the answer to this is pretty simple don't buy any only eat at locations that are included in your fair price

if you drink more than five sodas a day I would say this is a bargain and take it however if you drink less than five sodas a day save your money

you can save money by ordering an entree from a steakhouse while dining in the main dining room that's it you get the same food but you don't have to pay the cover charge

Creator's Tips & Advice

Eat at included buffet and main dining rooms to avoid extra costs
Book specialty dining reservations early to secure better options
Bring a refillable tumbler to keep drinks cold during excursions
Research ports of call to find walking-distance alternatives to expensive excursions
Utilize the allowance of 12 cans of soda or one 750ml bottle of wine per adult
