Unlimited Beverage Package - Changes at other line

[sdmike]

Saw a twitter feed from CC that RCCL has updated their UBP program. Since we talk about this a lot on the NCL boards I thought I'd post this information here

Do you think that NCL and others will follow suit? The boon in the article is, of course...

 

Among the changes made to the packages, only passengers who intend to use a package need to buy it. Previously, all passengers in a cabin had to purchase a package, even if only one wanted it.

 

That represents a huge change to a program, and IMO is a compelling reason to look at RCCL for those interested in purchasing a package for one.

Very compelling and should be interesting to watch over the next few months!

I wish NCL's package included bottled water. That would actually entice me a bit more to purchase it!!

It took us so long to get a drink on Independence of the Seas at times that there are not enough hours in the day to make a drinks package worthwhile. They really dropped the ball on drinks service on our cruise (and a few other balls as well).
