Solo traveller - 200% drinks package ?!

[Pollypammy69]

Hi - thinking of booking as a solo traveller in a veranda cabin on Apex, currently they offer a £39 ‘inclusive’ offer of drinks and WiFi but it looks like I would need to pay 200% for this - has anyone else experienced this? I’d  be paying the full price for the cabin so feels very unfair to pay for two for the package but when I try to book on line  that’s what happens

Yes, it's outrageous! Book the cabin only and buy the drink package separately.

I normally book the room and then the drink package after

Yes that is how it works for “always included”.  It isn’t a good value for solo travelers.  As others have mentioned, purchase the cabin only.

I booked my Sunset Verandah with the cabin only. Then I waited for the drink packages and wifi to go on sale. Got good deals for Black Friday,

Total discrimination against singles as you are forced to buy the package and WiFi separately losing any discount offered to couples.  Oddly if you do manage to book a single stateroom (which frequently cost more than having a twin room as a solo) they only change you once for the drinks and WiFi package.  It’s about time Celebrity sorted themselves out.

Ouch... I didn't even notice this because I was so distracted by not getting the discount when I booked a regular cabin as a solo for an upcoming cruise. May need to go back, check the prices, and cancel/rebook the drink package then. Thanks for the heads up!
