I spent $600 on cruise drink package & I think it was worth it!

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
This video explores the value of the Royal Caribbean Deluxe Beverage Package through a first-hand account from a staff member. Elizabeth shares her experience sailing on Symphony of the Seas, where she paid 600 dollars for a seven-night drink package. The coverage details what the package includes, such as cocktails, craft beer, premium coffees, and sodas, while noting exclusions like full bottles of wine or souvenir cups. Elizabeth tracks her consumption throughout the week, noting that she consumed 36 cocktails in total. She observes that while the package provides a sense of freedom and an all-inclusive feel, it can also lead to drinking out of habit rather than desire. She highlights the benefit of premium coffee at Cafe Promenade and the ability to try new drinks without financial regret. Ultimately, she concludes that while the package was worth the money for her specific trip, the decision to purchase one depends on individual drinking habits and whether a traveler prefers to spend that budget on other experiences like shore excursions or stateroom upgrades.

Creator's Key Takeaways
I think the drink package was worth it.
I had a total of 36 cocktails over the course of the week.
I found myself ordering drinks just because I had the package not because I necessarily wanted them.
This time I'd say the money was well spent though.
