bigbadandugly Posted August 17, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I’m interested in getting the premium drink package, however my wife does not drink. Due to Celebrity’s policy requiring all adults in the room to purchase the drink package, I’m precluded from benefitting from the current 20% sale on drink packages. Given my situation, what’s my best strategy to get a discounted drink package? Or am I pooched and have to pay list on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gold1953 Posted August 17, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Both in you cabin must but it. No way around it. She can get a non alcohol but needs a medical reason or be an alcoholic in recovery 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just cheaper to pay as you go compared to getting a drink package Drink package is $120 CAD a day , so that would be about 8 alcohol drinks a day 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare prmssk Posted August 17, 2023 #4 Share Posted August 17, 2023 It was my understanding there might be a way to get an exception if you call and explain the situation. I do not know if they are requiring some sort of medical reason for the non-drinker. They may have you purchase the non-alcohol package for her. It might be worth a call.

gdpups Posted August 17, 2023 #8 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I called Captains Club to just upgrade my packages since my roommate doesn’t drink much alcohol and was told no, but she did offer to change my roommate to the nonalcoholic package so I could upgrade just myself. I assume they will let you purchase the alcohol package if you purchase the non-alcohol one for your wife. That’s also Royal Caribbean’s policy, same owner.

LinRon3 Posted August 17, 2023 #9 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I did a search, but didn't find anywhere else to ask this question...and it seemed at least ballpark. I see a new category offered in the packages, where a 'stateroom setup' is offered [about $135]. Has anyone purchased this, and what does it entail? Do 'both' [all adults] in a stateroom have to purchase this if obtained? It looks to me like a 'bottle' of liquor will be placed in one's stateroom...even with mixers [like diet coke or whatever]? But how does this apply to the traditional 'both adults' must purchase...and exactly what does this buy? Is it one bottle of liquor...ie a single payment of the $135 approx, or multiplied across the entire cruise [7x or however many days one cruises; and each adult?]? I've wondered how the regular booze packages could ever be 'justified' except for convenience for those who have money to burn [who could drink that much each day over an entire cruise]...but a bottle in one's stateroom, that might at least be 'enticing'? But...well...has anyone done this and what are the details? thanks so much for any info on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted August 17, 2023 #10 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) It is 1 bottle of liquor and 6 cans of mixer. Only 1 person in the cabin has to buy it. Price a 1 time charge for the 1 bottle. Edited August 17, 2023 by jelayne 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted August 18, 2023 #11 Share Posted August 18, 2023 @LinRon3 This is a single 1-litre bottle of the selected alcohol with 6 cans of mixer as @jelayne indicated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
