I finally got the deluxe package on one of my sailings and now I can’t imagine sailing without it. 100% worth every penny! By the way the Frozen Blue Hawaiian and the Lava Flow with Krackin rum are my two favorite drinks!

It was the ginger beer, I swear! There's just something about that flavor that kills so many good drinks for me. Which is weird because I love Ginger Ale. I'm glad you found a drink you liked - and I hope this video helped you find your next favorite! Thank you for watching!!!

Without question my favorite drink is the Habernero Grapefruit Daiquiri from the Schooner Bar.

I'm going in 1 week, not sure if I should get the beverage package. How expensive is each drink? My girlfriend and I are not real big drinkers but we are going to be on a cruise ship and on vacation so that could easily change. lol Awesome video by the way!

Thanks for the kind words! Drinks were $14 each, $11 for shots, and $8 for canned beers/seltzer. While I will say that it was nice to not have to worry about a bill at the end of the trip because we paid for the package, I don't know that I'll ever get the Deluxe package again. You really have to work to get your money's worth - and if you're not that big of alcohol consumers to begin with, I would totally recommend buying drinks individually and not getting the package.

@@DwightShrute-ow1ww Have a blast! Another tip that might save you a bunch of money is that virgin cocktails are much cheaper than those with alcohol. Maybe order virgin drinks most of the day and then get an adult beverage at dinner and/or the show. That's my plan for the next cruise.

Question how long is the wait for grabbing a drink?

@chrisdoesthings

9 ай бұрын

It honestly depends on a lot of factors. I would say my average time from ordering to drink in hand was 7 minutes at a bar and 15 with a waiter. Doesn't sound like much until you multiply it by 60 drinks we had on the ship - and that was a minimum of 400 minutes just waiting to drink. ☠️ That's why our next cruise we opted to just buy drinks individually and we didn't miss the package at all.

Where can I get the list of all 51 drinks? And are all 51 drinks available on all the ships? Going on navigator of the seas next year

Did you tip for each drink with the package? Or do you tip if you know you're going to camp out at a bar for 2+ drinks? I want to be better about not feeling guilty for tipping with multiple drinks.

Gratuity is already included with the drink package cost. However I always tip at least a dollar per drink and more for those that I befriend from frequent visits.

Nothing more infuriating than "Planters punch with pineapple juice". Amateur hour. 😂
