tbdawson Posted August 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Trying to decide if I should buy the drink package. How much are the frozen drinks? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpmr Posted August 18, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Well pending on the ship you sail on... liquor, mixed and frozen drinks are $13 and beers are $8, wine $8-13.. soft drinks $5, bottled water $4, specialty coffees $5, smoothies $8. So as you can see it all adds up.. Oaisi class ships currently have Deluxe drink and Voom WiFi for $52 which a good deal. If your phone is WiFi capable you can txt and receive calls just like hitting a cell tower....even at sea.

Some ships have higher prices than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted August 19, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Unless you will be drinking 5-6 alcoholic drinks per day, per person, it's usually not worth the package price. Drinks included in your fare are Ice water, coffee, tea (iced or hot), lemonade or flavored water, milk and juice during breakfast.....if you won't be getting a bunch of "specialty" things, like sodas or fancy coffees, you'll be good paying as you go. You can buy ANYTHING without a package! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app I assume the sale you're referencing must only apply to certain sailings. Just looked at my cruise planner for our Oasis sailing in April and it's still listed as full price. If you're seeing something different, please advise.

stumpmr Posted August 19, 2017 #8 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Check the drink & Voom....for the Allure It currently is still $52 US. Keep checking we have seen prices from 20-30% off on deluxe pkgs. We've been told sales are the 1st of the month..not sure I've seen that.. Our next cruise is OCT 22 with another couple that bought their pkgs at $48 back in Feb..wish we had.. we bought excursions instead...

Frozen drinks are at least $12 these days. It doesn't take 5 to 6 per day to break even. Most people also like the other things included in the package. Although I am not a coffee drinker, I am constantly amazed at the long lines at the coffee shops on board. I am amazed by the number of people who can't live without their bottled water. And so on and so forth. Since RC started really pushing the drink package, they have also raised the price of individual drinks higher and higher, to convince people that the packages are a good buy.

They are not good in the at other locations in the Bahamas or in Jamaica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, for ships that have freestyle machines, you cannot use them without the cup that comes with a package. Not me, but some people also like the fresh squeezed juice and bottled water.

I guess your right I was using alternative math. My gin and tonics are about nine bucks. I should know better than to think something CB said was accurate. I'll never do that again.
