Wine packages on P&O

[Cruisemeister2002]

Hi everyone. Not that I'm new to cruising but a question regarding wine packages on P&O. I am aware there's either the Captains or Commodores package and I'm also aware of the price although I am not sure whether the % that P&O claim to take off such packages means you get none of the benefits of the particular tier that you are in ( Caribbean 10%). Can anyone tell me whether they are worth purchasing as we don't drink wine at every meal as sometimes I will have a beer and the wife a G&T. But we are going on a cruise where 12 bottles would mean a 1/3rd of the cruise we would have a bottle of wine.

Providing they are bottles of wine you would chose anyway then it’s worth it. I’ve often found that in a selection of 12 there are a couple that would not be my choice.

You choose which wines you want to drink from the relevant package list … they don’t just give you 12 random bottles … you could therefore drink 12 bottles of the same wine if you wanted too.

we have found it to be a saving on our favourite wines
