current drink package pricing

[heathermiller86nj]

Hi,

 

How much is the drink package currently going for if purchased in advance of the cruise. Is it still discounted and advantageous to buy ahead of time? Also, if my family member I'm traveling with doesn't drink, am I still able to purchase it only for me? Thank you very much.

To know current pricing, you would need to check the cruise planner for your sailing. Price listed is per day, but doesn't include the 18% gratuity that will be added. You can add to your cart to find total price with the gratuity. Currently, only select sailings on Harmony are requiring all guests to have the package and that's a trial run. So unless you're on Harmony in the near future, your other member doesn't have to purchase one.

Price varies based on ship and date. My upcoming Oasis sailing it is 55 per person, per day and then you need to add 18% gratuity. An upcoming Freedom sailing I was able to get for $39.

It is currently £49.13 for Symphony, is it normally higher for new ships ?

Yes

on the Anthem for this Thanksgiving it's been at $48/day (20% off) for a while...$54/day with internet added on.

 

non-alchohol package is normally at $26/day for this sailing but it goes to $18/day every now and again.

 

those rates don't include gratuity

Empress is $58/day plus 18% tax!

Surf n stream voom is $17.99/day.

 

Thank goodness for D+ discount!

[jasper15]

It is always more expensive on-board.

 

Book it early. If the price drops, cancel it and re-book.

Do not wait until you get on the boat.

$65 on board Independence and $54.28 to prebuy under their current offer.

There is no mention of the additional 18% gratuity on the UK site. Is the just an American thing?

Current price for my cruise is £42.35

[little britain]

The gratuity is included in the final price you see when it is in your”basket”.

When sailing from England all prices include the tips. It’s the law.

LOL!

FYI you have about 10 minutes after you submit a post when you can go back into it and edit it! If you are using an app you just tap on the post and it should come up with the Edit option.

On our sailing for Ovation of the Seas next year it won't allow just one package to be bought - they must have introduced the "everyone in the same cabin" policy for our sailing.

[Clarea]

... For £600 ($750) more than my original price, I have the full drinks package for all of us for 14 days. ...

That is an excellent deal!:)

It does look like the "everybody must purchase" rule is going fleet wide. So if you find your cruise will still let you buy just for one PAX then I would buy it if only one wants the drink package. I suspect being able to purchase for just one person will disappear if it hasn't already.

On Freedom, the soda package is $10.63 Canadian per day.

They also have soda + one VOOM device combo for $23 CAD per day.

[debgreg]

Did you book with a UK agent? I have booked Symphony (booked direct RCI UK) without DP, although at the moment its still working out more , but worth keeping an eye on if they would allow a change?

The rule is that if one passenger in your cabin buys the package then all have to.

[Badgeaz]

Obc is gonna happen instead. Not payin for the beverage packages
