Are cruise drink packages worth the money?

Whether a cruise drink package is worth the money or not depends on the specific package and the drinking habits of the person who is purchasing it. For passengers who want the convenience of not having to have everything paid for upfront, or those who want use the freedom to try new drinks, the package may be worth it, states Fodor's.

Cruise drink packages provides discounts on a passenger's overall bill. If passengers do not drink much alcohol, alcoholic drink packages may cost more than buying each drink individually. Some cruises may also require that all people in a stateroom buy a package if one person does, notes Fodor's. Cruise passengers should review a cruise's drink-package options to determine whether there is a package that is right for them.
