I do agree that they are easonable (at least, Plus is reasonable) if you drink. I would be really interested in a package that was nonalcoholic... I wonder if they'll ever do that? I've said many time a $30-35 a day non alcoholic AI would help people who don't drink a lot of alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packages aren't for being healthier. it's one reason we don't get them 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I have the package I am more willing to do an occasional experiment with some drinks. Both alcohol and non. More concerned with the calorie content of some of those mocktails, but I try not to let it stop me to much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have went with the fitness classes. If all you drink is water and coffee I would avoid the packages. Not sure but would guess mocktail mix has lots of sugar in it. But I haven't had one in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthworm Jim Posted November 23, 2023 #32 Share Posted November 23, 2023 From a strict health standpoint, all but the most disciplined eaters and drinkers of us are probably much better off not taking a cruise at all. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And your food on a cruise is loaded with much more salt than I would like. Always have to watch my feet swelling whenever I am cruising 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having lunch right now at a diner near my house 2-3 beers with lunch , will have 2 cocktails pre dinner and 2 glasses of wine with dinner. That is probably about a normal day for us if we go out to lunch Do you have a chauffeur? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is amazing what a night in jail will do for you 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
