Drink Package Total Cost 3 Night Cruise

[GatorGirl57]

Ok, I have tried to search, but I am not finding the exact answers I am looking for in regards to the drink packages.

 

If I do the beer/wine package, it is $46 a day. On a three night cruise, there is most of Friday, all day Saturday, all day Sunday, and a little of Monday.

 

Does that mean I would pay for 3 days if I wanted the whole cruise (ie, $138?), or is it four days ($184)?

 

Am I correct that it must start on Friday, since it is a short cruise?

 

I have seen it state that gratuity is included. Does that mean it is included in the $46, or when I get the bill it will be 46 plus the 18%?

 

Sorry, such newbie questions. I normally sail Carnival and I normally don't get the drink package, but going with friends. Thanks!

On a 3-night cruise you will pay 3 X $39 + 18% = $134.52

You count by NIGHTS...not days...so 3X the daily cost. The last morning when you leave the ship doesn't count, as there is no time to do anything...they want you gone ASAP!
