Royal Caribbean drink packages let you drink what you want, when you want, without feeling nickel-and-dimed. Isn't that a cruiser's dream? The all-inclusive, extra-fee beverage plans aren't necessarily for everyone, but they offer a nice way to enhance a cruise experience and take some of the stress out of in-the-moment vacation decisions.
Royal Caribbean ships offer a variety of packages, from a simple Water Package that keeps you and your crew hydrated during your cruise to a comprehensive plan that includes most alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks. Other than the Water Package, which is priced based on the quantity you order, drink packages on Royal Caribbean are priced per person, per day.
