I, too, do the math. You eloquently put into words what I consider when contemplating the package. Our last cruise spanned celebratory days: Superbowl, Fat Tuesday, and Valentines Day. I left the wine at home and ordered wine from the menu; I ordered single malt scotch at the bar or via Ocean Now, instead of, drinking what was available in the room; brought espresso infused drinks to the room with a pastry instead of buffet coffee. I am perfectly fine with a Blue Hawaii embarkation cocktail and less during the cruise. But, for celebratory occasions I will lean toward fun instead of fundamental.
