Premium Drinks Package £53 a day

[MONKEY20]

I am sailing on the Ovation of the seas inaugural cruise next month and the Premium Drinks package has just gone on sale at £53 A DAY:confused: ( APPROX $80).

I think they are trying to put people off buying them..

I would wait and purchase on board. It should be around USD $58 per day.

We are booked on the second 3-day cruise on Harmony and I nearly dropped through the floor when I priced an Ultimate package for us both at £281:40 and premium at £239:40 :eek:

We won't be bothering this time.....

We are on the Vision in September and my wife has the Premium and its £41 per day, so me think they are cashing in with it being the inaugural cruise:(

I feel , you would need to a serious drinker to make these packages work for 14 night cruises,

 

Having to drink £50 worth of booze every day for 14 nights just to break even.

 

I wouldn't buy unless included in the cruise offer, as they are discounted doing it that way, when you calculate the Base price plus the package purchase separate.

It usually comes out much more.

I paid £32 which, considering a glass of wine with tax is about

$10-$12 per glass, it isn't hard to break even. A cocktail at the pool, bottles of water, beers etc - it's a real saving for even 'moderate' drinkers!!
