Do Cruise Drink Packages Save Money? Here’s The Reality
Cruise drink packages often sound like a great deal, but the numbers don’t always add up. Most drink packages cost around US$70 to $100 per person per day. Individual cocktails on many cruise ships are usually US$12 to $15 each. That means the break-even point is usually six to eight drinks per day. If you’re relaxing by the pool and ordering cocktails throughout the day, the package might make sense. But if you’re only having a couple of drinks with dinner or spending most days in port, paying per drink is often cheaper. Example: 4 cocktails at $14 each = $56 A $90 drink package still costs significantly more, even if you add a specialty coffee or juice. Always check the maths before you buy.
