Hi loughlin61, welcome to Cruise Critic. I'm not exactly sure what your question is. If you could be more specific we could maybe help.

I think you will get a lot of answers if you do a search Beverage Package...

There are maybe 100 answers to you question....It will help you a lot

I'm surprised the beverage package is not an item under FAQs on O's but you can find it here:

 

https://www.oceaniacruises.com/experience/value/beverage-packages/

 

There are two beverage packages, the one I think you're fellow cruisers are referring to is the $40 House Select which is wine and beer with meals only. It is any wine they offer on the menu by the glass. The other package, Prestige Select at $60 pp/pd, is much more encompassing .

 

 

Prestige Select

Unlimited premium spirits, Champagne, wine and beer wherever and whenever you wish

from $59.95 per guest, per day

 

House Select

Unlimited Champagne, wine and beer with lunch and dinner

from $39.95 per guest, per day

 

Wine by the Bottle+

All bottles are priced at $47.50 (Gratuity Included)

7 bottles of wine are required for each package

 

As already stated there are many threads on this subject, mostly trying to work out "which is best for me".

In the future, you may want to put information about your question (rather than your user name) in the title line.

Happy sailing!

It depends on how much you expect you'll drink. We didn't take either of the beverage packages. The prestige package (Which is the one we were looking at) would have worked out to $1200 on a 10 day cruise. During lunch I had a cocktail (usually whatever was the specialty for that day) and my husband had a beer. Some days we'd have more, some days less. At dinner we would have Wine - I like white, my husband likes red so we'd order a bottle of each. Whatever we didn't finish was corked and stored for us until the next dinner (usually a bottle would do two dinners for us). In the end, we spent far less than we would have with the Prestige package ( I think it was around $800)

Works well for us too. Do not need to drink that much more.
