Thanks Jerseygirl1416, that's good to know! Topanga49er hopefully you will see this. Maybe you can get the deal this way. Cruise Critic forums have been such a great place to get real life info for my cruises. Thanks to all for chiming in! Karen

This. Is. Flippin. Brilliant. Exactly what I was looking for - thank you so much!!!

As was pointed out, the $72.99 price is already counting the 50% off one when buying two. I have read about some folks being able to buy just one if their cabin mate doesn't or can't drink alcohol. You or your TA have to contact RC about that and I'm guessing they would then charge you $98 per day. The math is a bit wonky since it's 98 + 49 = 147 ÷ 2 = 73.50 per person. So they are actually "rounding down" by 51 cents. Whatever, I did put this in my shopping cart & saw that the charge would be $1377.92 with the added 18%. That is some chunk of change! And we still need to budget for cabin gratuities & shore excursions. So yeah, we are really thinking this is just too much for us. But still hoping to find out the latest individual drink prices specifically on Wonder. Would love to see menu pics showing wine/beer/cocktails/coffee. If anyone knows where that info might be please post. Karen

Thank you. I'm ignoring the 18% part just to keep the math simpler but of course that factors in to cost as well. $66 I wish! That would just about make it worth it to us. To be fair this one is an 8-day cruise so I guess they have to factor in the folks who somehow manage to get a dozen or more drinks in every day. And it is the newest ship (so far). That's why I'm wondering if the prices are different on it compared to others. But I appreciate you taking the time to answer. Enjoy your cruises! Karen

We're booked for Jan23. Been monitoring the deluxe drinks package price for a while now. I have seen it bounce between $73 & $78 per person per day - not worth it for us. Now it shows as being "on sale" marked down from $98 to $72.99 (calling it a buy one get 2nd @ 50%). Since this is simply another way of saying $73 I got concerned prices across the board were increased since I've never seen the $98 referenced before. And $98!? Seriously?!??? I understand most cocktails are (were?) $12 - $13. Anyone on now or very recently please let me know what you are seeing for prices. Sorry if this is a repeat question but searching didn't turn up this particular info for me. If I missed it please let me know where to find the most current prices. Thanks in advance. Karen
