Gangway Posted June 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Is it any advantage to pre pay for drink package before you board the ship? Some cruise lines offer discount to pre pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robson1 Posted June 9, 2023 #3 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) If they increase the cost of the package between now and the cruise then you would lose out. If it’s purchased in advance they can’t suddenly ask for more on board as you purchased it per the advertised price at the time. It’s happened recently with the rise from $60-$70 per day. In theory that means there shouldn’t be any more rises for a good while. On the flip side would you be able to get a refund on it if you had a health issue or prescription nearer the cruise that meant you couldn’t drink?

Rare LHT28 Posted June 12, 2023 #6 Share Posted June 12, 2023 I believe if you plan on doing a La Reserve dinner if your buy the package prior to boarding you get a discount on the dinner price Also if you are Silver + in the O Club you get a discount on the beverage package if you buy before boarding https://www.oceaniacruises.com/oceania-club-benefits Someone will correct me if wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
