I knew what you had since I have cruised on Celebrity multiple times in the past and will be on the Edge in January.  You just can't state that the drink package only cost you 300 and that Carnival only gives you 11 drinks.  You'll be called out on the incorrect information.  Happy sailing.

First of all, the limit is 15 alcoholic drinks and unlimited non alcoholic ones each day.  Two, if you paid 300 for two people for your alcohol package, it was to upgrade your included classic package to the premium one.  The classic package was a perk for staying in an ocean view or higher cabin.  You need to compare the total cost of what you paid for your Celebrity cruise with what you would pay for a comparable cabin on a similar cruise on carnival to make it a true apples to apples comparison.

 

Celebrity has three different drinks packages available for purchase, the Premium @ 69 per day gives you drinks up to 15.00 each, the Classic @ 59 per day gives you drinks up to 9.00 each and the Standard @ 49 per day gives you drinks up to 6.00 each.

Carnival's is 51 prepaid per day or 56 on board and includes drinks up to 20.00 each.

 

As I stated above, it was probably the upgrade cost. 

it was an upgrade we had a balcony room. cost of the cruise is very close to the same price. with that drink package, we also received 400 in onboard credit between the 2 of us. it was a smoking deal. I love Celebrity much better for a lot of reasons.

It’s cheaper than RC! Why the hate?

I just think its too much and they limit you to 11 drinks in a day. my last cruise was 11 days with Celebrity Cruise line and I had drink package for $300.00 for 2 people (in the cabin) no limits on how many you could have in a day.

just a little rant about Carnival. The alcohol package is just a little ridiculous on price.  I will never sail with Carnival again.

There are just too many other cruise ships that offer better deals for alcohol packages. $52 a day per person is crazy. 

do they have dry cleaning on board?
