sue1138 Posted February 20, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I just booked the Oasis of Seas on August 26-18 for 7 days. The drink package is currently $410 for the week. I was told there are sales sometimes so I am wondering if I should wait. Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcgrumpy Posted February 20, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2018 It may drop, or it might go up. If you purchase it now and the price drops you can cancel and repurchase it. I've regretted not purchasing early on, more than one occasion when the price has gone up and never come back down. For my November cruise it was down to $42 one day. It went up to $48 and hasn't come back down yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted February 20, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 20, 2018 That is cheaper than you will see on the ship but I have seen prices a lot lower. The lowest I have seen for my cruises is $42/day plus 18% gratuity. Others have seen lower, I never have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haply Posted February 20, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2018 We will be sailing on the Oasis in June. I have been watching the drink package since December. The lowest price for the June sailing thus far has been $47 per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Forums I agree with the advice to book now, monitor the pricing in your Cruise Planner, and cancel and rebook if the price drops. Unfortunately for you, the prices are generally higher on Oasis and Quantum class ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr3939 Posted February 21, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Oasis for October 2017, started at $44 eight months out. I bought one each month for three months. I wanted to spread it out to pay it from my paycheck rather than CC. Then one weekend it jumped to $56 and never came back down. I waited and finally bought my fourth. When we boarded it was $58. Best advice is buy it now, if it goes down cancel and re-purchase. Yes, you have to bite the bullet and put out all that money up front now, but it could be worse later. After three cruises over the last four years buying the package, I would say anything under or close to $40 I would jump all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Forums I don’t know your C&A status, but I can tell you the 20% off discount for Diamond members is gone. It applies only to Diamond + and above. Pay attention to RCCL emails. They run Discounts on drink, internet and specialty dinning regularly. Grab one of those. No discounts on board.

IrishLassie Posted February 22, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Getting ready to book Oasis for the fall of 2018 & my son & his wife will want to buy the drink pkg.

aggie1157@yahoo.com Posted February 25, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Last weekend, RC had a deal going and I got mine for $388 including tax. We are leaving on July 1st. I suggest to keep looking. They will have more deals before you leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went up to $48 and hasn't come back down yet. I just got off Anthem of the Seas and it was $57 on board so $48 is still very reasonable. I got 2 at $42 each per day on a Black Friday sale (I had to buy two though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrpie90 Posted February 27, 2018 #19 Share Posted February 27, 2018 If their are three adults in one stateroom do they all have to purchase the drinks package or can just one purchase it? I am enquiring regarding Harmony of the seas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwayneb236 Posted February 27, 2018 #21 Share Posted February 27, 2018 On my Liberty cruise in January we got the packages on sale for $41 a day. The total for the whole cruise was $338 each. We were pleased with this. After I bought them it went back up to $45 a day and never went any lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
