gailforce2000 Posted March 9, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2018 When is the latest you can preorder the Ultimate Drink Package? Most reservations can be made up to 3 days prior to the cruise. Is it the same for the drink package ? Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dacsmom Posted March 9, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 9, 2018 The latest is three days, but I usually keep an eye on the prices and grab it when it is between $42 and $45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taglovestocruise Posted March 9, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Yesterday on our cruise planner the Ultimate package was $44.00 plus grats. If you can find that price it is about as low as it goes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Forums Different for different cruises, time of the year, precruise demand, any number of factors. Most people suggest buying it when you see a decent price as you can cancel and repurchase if the price goes down later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people suggest buying it when you see a decent price as you can cancel and repurchase if the price goes down later. My wife got it months ago for $43 and I got the refreshment package. Now I’m looking at doing the deluxe like her if I can get a good price and drop the refreshment package. Just have to check prices everyday. If I can get it for $45 or less I’ll do it.

shining_diva Posted March 10, 2018 #12 Share Posted March 10, 2018 It is available. I tried putting it in my cart and checking out. Sometimes the website gives a hard time, you could call tomorrow.

Clarea Posted March 10, 2018 #16 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Sorry I was thinking how late, as far as early is concerned I saw it about 4 months before but then I don’t check regularly. You can normally purchase items from the Cruise Planner up to 72 hours before the cruise, assuming Royal does not completely screw up the website.

AWEINTRAUB75 Posted March 10, 2018 #17 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I caught RCCL in a lie when booking my cruise (first timer with Royal), and they gave me $125 OBC to compensate and offset what I was quoted (had ZERO clue about Cruise Planner), and with the sale I caught and the OBC, it cost me $613 for 2ppl. Bottom line is, I need to consume an average of 3.68 drinks per day to make it worthwhile! I'll be in the black by 11am!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost the discount on the shore excursions because of this snafu. Now they lost the sale too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted March 10, 2018 #20 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I just booked the Oasis for a second cruise this year in October, right now the price is $48 a day, I paid $43 for my upcoming cruise in April, so I decided to wait until the price comes down and it will somewhere.
