P&O Cruises Drink Packages | Good Value for Money?

Editorial Summary

Jay provides a detailed review of the beverage pricing and available drink packages on P&O Cruises ships, based on a recent trip on the Iona. He begins by comparing individual drink prices to those found in a British pub, noting that while not the most expensive, they are not the cheapest. The creator evaluates three specific packages. The child's package, available to adults, offers unlimited soda, hot chocolate, and fruit juice for a daily fee. The non-alcoholic package includes mocktails and Costa Coffee but carries limitations regarding beverage sizes and room service. The ultimate drinks package is criticized for its high daily cost and significant exclusions, particularly regarding wine and spirit measures. Jay concludes that the P&O packages offer poor value compared to other cruise lines. He suggests that travelers who prioritize alcoholic beverages might find better value with Princess Cruises or MSC Cruises, noting that those lines offer more inclusive or cost-effective options for various drinking preferences.
