- Today we are breaking down all three Royal Caribbean drink package options. We will talk about what these packages are, what they offer, and if purchasing one of them is right for you. We will also break down the math behind it so you can see what it would take to break even if you decide to purchase one of Royal Caribbean's drink packages. We will tell you what we use to decide whether or not to purchase the drink package and which one makes the most scenes with the best value.

If you get any of the packages, they add the tip at the time of purchasing. Soda could be 8.99 a day, so that's 8.99 x 3 (for 3 day cruise) x 1.18 (for tip) = $31.82 charged at the time of buying online or on the ship. Prices change like you said, but the 18% is added. Adds a bunch to a $55.99 / per day 7 day Deluxe package = $462.48. I'm so glad I reached Diamond status, so my wife and I get the refreshment package (x2 without cheating) and use our 4 drinks a day for only alcohol drinks. Also we bring our 2 bottles of wine. - I agree with all your other justifications. - Hot tip, buy drink packages online in Nov, especially during Thanksgiving week. Best prices all year.
Great video and thank you for adding the point of its not just the alcoholic drinks in the package. I try to tell people all the time it's everything! They seem to think Oh I have to drink so much to make it worth it when if you have a couple of specialty coffees in the morning, a Jonny Rockets Shake, your 4 alcoholic drinks(probably more lol), another coffee in the afternoon, a few water bottles, another coffee with desert at dinner! My mind so worth it! Especially not having to worry about a bill at the end!
I got the refreshment package on sale for $23.99/day. I don’t drink much soda - my favorite drink is iced tea, but I do drink specialty coffee and the occasional Diet Coke. I will use the bottled water, the coffee, maybe get a Diet Coke here or there, and I will probably try a few mocktails, so I will likely break even. I do drink a bit, but not much. One of our excursions includes drinks, we’re doing the guacamole class which includes a margarita and I will have a glass of wine here and there. But because of the way I drink not only alcohol but everything else, the drink package isn’t worth more than about $50/day for me.
You can get a soda at any bar or restaurant that's inccluded in the soda package. You don't need to stand in line at the machine.
I have found ultimate drink packages are often less on longer cruises (over 7 nights) than shorter ones. It's easier to break even. Also cancel and rebook if a better price appears. Anything we pre book has been paid off before we cruise. So no, why did we drink so much at the end of the cruise.
What are interview drinks?
My husband does not drink so I purchased him the refreshment package. I was thinking about getting the deluxe refreshment package, but when I try to do it online, it wants me to do it for both of us. Do you know if Royal would allow me to get the deluxe without my husband getting it since he already has the refreshment package?
Thanks!
Unfortunately, probably not. Royal Caribbean has a policy requiring all passengers aged 21 and older in the same cabin to purchase the deluxe package if one person does. This rule is specific to the deluxe package and doesn't apply to the other packages. It might be more beneficial to purchase the refreshment package and purchase the alcohol outright. Safe Travels!
You can call RC and request to do one Deluxe and one Refreshment package. Just let them know one does not drink. Whoever you talk to has to get a manager involved to approve it and they will almost always approve it. I've done it. Its just the extra step of calling in.
Yes if you call in and make up an excuse as to why the other person in the room can not drink then they will almost always not require the second person to purchase the deluxe
@@toddtesta5228 yes, thanks for sharing
You would have to call them directly. It's the only way, because my wife takes medication and cannot do the full package. So I get the refresher for her while I get the deluxe
