Drink Packages

[Turk1]

Normally when my wife and I cruise we would get the Drink Package for both of us. My wife and 18 year old Grand daughter are going on a cruise (without me) and my wife will get the Drink Package. Is my Grand Daughter able to just get the refreshment package since she is not of legal drinking age since they are in the same cabin?

You do not need to purchase any drink package for minors.

Yes, your granddaughter can get the Refreshment or any other package that does not contain alcohol.

all people of legal drinking age in the cabin must get the drink package.  If you are in the USA, the age is 21 so only your wife gets it.  But if you are in Europe, than they both need to get it.  

 

Grand daughter can get a soda package or refreshment package but no requirement to do so.

Or, you can call RCI, get the over 21 "non-drinker" a refreshment package and the "drinker" the deluxe package.

Thanks to all! Can this be done on line or would it be best to call RCI and set it up that way?

DBP..Deluxe Beverage Package. Not to be confused with UDP (dining) 😉

I just cancelled and rebooked the UBP for $62.  By rebooking it saved me $70.  So glad I check these prices daily.

You don't need to call when the other party is under 21

Yes.  My quote was in response to the person who said "all people of legal drinking age in the cabin must get the drink package."

My bad, I mis-read your post. Mea Cupla.
