We were on the Sun to Cuba -- 5 days, April 6 to 11 -- with premium plus.  It cost less than $60 to upgrade from the free drink package they offer.  We upgraded when we booked the cruise so I'm not sure if the price is more once on board.

 

Everything by the glass was included. Specialty coffee in restaurants. Bottled still and sparkling water.  We would have been fine without it, but it was a nice treat for us.

 

DH is a bourbon drinker and picky about the brand -- at home drinks Makers Mark, Blantons, and other small batch bourbons.  The only bourbon in the free option was Jim Beam. They did have Bullet Rye, and he would have been okay with that.

 

With the PP package, Bookers Kentucky, Woodford Reserve and Whistle Pig were offered.  Tho is was on the menu in all bars, none had the Bookers available, so he bounced between Woodford and Whistle Pig. Can't remember what the up-charge for the Woodford was if you had the basic package, but it was a ridiculous $19.95 per drink for the Whistle Pig! 

 

I drink gin, and my usual Tanquary was on the basic pkg.  Got Tanquary 10 with PP.

 

And with the PP package, the bar staff almost always poured doubles. 

Do you remember if Jameson Whiskey was included in the open bar, or was that an upcharge?
