SNOWEY Posted February 22 #26 Share Posted February 22 Our 13 day TA in Nov is showing Deluxe Drink pkg for $55.99 a day. We are Diamond, do we get a discount on top of that (wishful thinking I am sure). Thanks! Claudia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Engineroom Snipe Posted February 23 #31 Share Posted February 23 11 hours ago, TheInnocentAge said: That's still seems really high. I checked the next two cruises we have booked, and on one the deluxe package is $57.99 and the other is $65.99, far removed from the $42 we paid on Symphony just a few years ago. "Those were the days, my friend, we thought they would never end.." (Mary Hopkin, 1968) Not sure if we will ever see that $42 special ever again. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claudia Yes, Royal will offer you four additional drinks each for free on top of your unlimited drinking package. This is not sarcasm. If you are sailing with those who might not be Crown & Anchor qualified, you and your significant other can offer your four drinks each to other people in your party without penalty each cruising day. This is done all of the time and you will not be penalized for your generosity. So, if you feel the package is a good deal because you drink regular drinks, special coffees and more, you can save others in your party from buying a drink package if four or less drinks are sufficient for their purposes. You could also trade in one of your vouchers for a 40% off of a bottle of wine (bottle cost under $100) and share it with multiple people again without penalty. Just a thought.

Claudia We call and buy one deluxe package and one refreshment then I give my vouchers to her since she only has 7-8 drinks a day. Makes for a pretty good discount!!!

Snowey88 Posted February 23 #36 Share Posted February 23 (I just read all adults over 18 in cabin have to buy the pkg. ) 1 PKG would be enf drinks for me but that is still a lot of $$$ since we are doing a 13 day cruise. Next cruise is w X and we did all included but it was 10 days but still cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsydanma Posted February 23 #37 Share Posted February 23 It seems that we are not booking drink packages anymore. 😕 We have paid last couple of times reduced price trough our TA and the price has been 45$/day (or maybe it was euros). Now the RCL's "special discount price" for our August MED cruise is 70€/day. We are diamonds, so it looks like we will stick with the four freebies and maybe pay the additional drinks individually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrisonkid Posted February 23 #38 Share Posted February 23 Got a DDP for 68.99 (plus tip ) and a Bev Pack for 23.99 for next month . Clearly it is hit and miss ...52 buck per day is awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original purchase will be refunded to the original purchase method and usually is refunded within a week. If you have already reserved a drink package how do you find out if the price has gone down. When I do to Royal’s website it doesn’t show the price unless I sign in. When I sign in it only shows the price I paid. So how do I find out??? TIA, Pam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt 7 day cruises will ever get that low again. Edited February 23 by crzndeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
