Are you asking about the Signature (up to $11 drinks) or the Elite (up to $15) Drink package.  Neither package allows you have EVERY alcoholic beverage available. There is no such thing as a Premier Package.

 

There are many threads here that have the drink menus and prices posted.

This is what HAL  told us that  for the early  booking we get the HIA with a premier drink plan .Perhaps he was saying elite but we heard premier .So in the Elite plan are those drinks covered ?

In the Elite plan, the non-alcoholic drinks are covered, and do not count towards your 15 drink per day limit.

 

Drinks costing up to $15 are covered. If amount is higher, you pay the difference.

 

Not covered: mini bar, room service alcohol or specialty beverages, whiskey/cocktail classes. (I think.  We haven’t actually cruised with HAL yet, but we’ve been reading the boards for months.)

 

We’re about to cruise with the signature package. Our non-alcoholic drinks DO count against our 15 drink limit, and we pay the difference for items over $11.  Same non-coverage for classes and room service.

The HIA is the Signature Beverage Package. $11 and under, but there are exceptions and ALL drinks alcoholic or not count toward the 15 daily covered drink limit. 

 

edit: I just checked the website and indeed the "Elite Beverage Package" is being marketed with the Early Booking Bonus... that is pretty nice. Enjoy it. 

 

As of last Fall you could still upgrade once onboard from the HIA Signature Beverage Package to the Elite Beverage Package. This takes the dollar limit up to $15 and under per drink and does not count non-alcoholic beverages toward your 15 daily covered drinks limit. 

 

Roger Jett's website has the best info. Here is the chart he provides.
