trout96 Posted July 23, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I just can't see doing a package when I would use less than the service charge. If it included bottled water it would be worth it. But not if I have to buy bottle water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar64 Posted July 23, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I figure you drink few drinks a day it worth it Sent from my SM-G955U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamieLogical Posted July 23, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I believe soda is $3? Not sure on beer. The service charge on the UBP is $17.80 per day. If you will drink less than that, then it is not worth it, but generally 2-3 drinks per day makes it worth it. As for water, I highly recommend bringing your own refillable water bottle and just using that. Water packages definitely aren't worth the cost. The tap water on the ship is highly filtered.

Sugar64 Posted July 23, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Beer 6 plus tip I think plus other drinks are 7 to 10.00 dollars I got the drink pkg because it's worth it for me Sent from my SM-G955U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamieLogical Posted July 23, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Found a couple photos of beer lists and it looks like prices start at $5.25 and go up depending on the specific type of beer. So say you have two of those plus a soda, you would be at $13.50 plus tip. I would think that would be about the break-even point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not if I have to buy bottle water. Soda, including S/C is about $3.25. Beers run between $6 - $8 including S/C. It doesn't take very many beverages to pay the S/C on the package.

It doesn't take very many beverages to pay the S/C on the package. Sodas are actually $4.14 now. You are about 1 dollar low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
