Donnaf516 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Posted June 14, 2019 What's the lowest it usually goes to? Quote
ChessE4 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Posted June 14, 2019 I have seen it about $50 on my e-mails. Others say $47, Matt and others are the experts. Some folks say to book it if it seems reasonable and then cancel and re-book later if the price goes down. I haven't tried that. Of course, see Matt's video on whether it makes economic sense to purchase the package. Quote

It can vary based on ship, itinerary, Cruise Planner sale, etc. The cheapest price we saw leading up to our cruise last month (Allure) was $45/$46 (30% off sale... $65 was the "onboard" pricing... must be a rounding thing!). You generally see the typical 20% off pre-cruise price, BOGO 50% (effectively 25% off), and 30% off sales. Not sure if Black Friday has an ever better sale (I somehow missed that one). I agree with @ChessE4, purchase it when you are comfortable with the price... you can always cancel and re-purchase at the lower price down the road. Skid 1 Quote

misslottie Posted June 14, 2019 Report Posted June 14, 2019 I managed to get the deluxe package for £39.46 / $49.70 for the Jewel in September. That was in a Memorial Day sale a couple of weeks ago. Skid 1 Quote
KenCP Posted June 14, 2019 Report Posted June 14, 2019 @Donnaf516 I originally purchased mine on Black Friday and got 25% off. Then on Memorial Day weekend it went to 30% off so I cancelled my original package and purchased this one. I am less than 3 months out now, so I do not think it will go any lower unless they have a July 4th sale and it goes to 40% off. I doubt that, but it would be nice, it adds up on 12 night cruise. Keep checking once or twice a week in your cruise planner. I think it also depends on your particular cruise if the package is selling or not. I have seen the price change from week to week with out a sale being announced. Quote
marti314 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Posted June 14, 2019 Got 44/day on Allure in March of this year. Thats the lowest i have seen this year. Quote
Donnaf516 Posted June 14, 2019 Author Report Posted June 14, 2019 We're sailing 7/13 and it's still showing 56. Fingers crossed I'll be able to get a last minute July 4th sale price. Quote

Yo2slick Posted June 15, 2019 Report Posted June 15, 2019 We paid 46pp per day during the Memorial Day sale on our Liberty cruise. Cheapest Ive seen it. Quote
ericreev Posted June 15, 2019 Report Posted June 15, 2019 I paid $39 before the 18 % gratuity about a year and half to two years ago on Liberty. It’s the lowest I’ve ever seen it and I doubt it will ever be that price again. eric reeves Quote
skwak Posted June 15, 2019 Report Posted June 15, 2019 Our cruise seems to flex between $49 and $52 plus 18%, We locked at $49. Quote

This seems to be the price range on all of mine, too. The only one that has dropped below $49 is our August Liberty cruise which went down (only once and for a very short period of time) to $47.

melmar02 Posted June 16, 2019 Report Posted June 16, 2019 $46 is the lowest my Sept 1 Liberty cruise has been at, even during the Black Friday sale. I would love to see it at $44, but I'm not holding my breath. Quote

Our Adventure seems to be the cheapest varying from $62-65 CAD depending if a "sale" that day (which I guess is $46-48 USD) and Anthem Mar 2020 is most expensive about $10 more.

RickinSTL Posted June 16, 2019 Report Posted June 16, 2019 $49 on Harmony.. I've tracked it for almost a year now Quote
Jedi Jason Posted June 17, 2019 Report Posted June 17, 2019 price will vary depending on the ship, cruise duration, number of sea days, time of year, and how many people have bought a drink package $52 on 3 night Mariner July and $49 on 7 night Harmony October Quote
JennyB Posted June 17, 2019 Report Posted June 17, 2019 Beverage Package prices will vary depending on the ship, cruise duration, number of sea days, time of year, and how many people have bought a drink package. $52 on 4 night Navigator in July and $52 on 7 night Harmony November at the moment.

Mr. Candyman Posted June 18, 2019 Report Posted June 18, 2019 Price just went back down today at $49 for my September 1 Allure sailing Quote
CDunninTX Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 When I checked today the deluxe beverage package was $46/per day per adult for the Allure of the Seas - September 22, 2019 sailing. Quote
Weezie57 Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 Originally purchased the drink package for myself at $52 while my wife got the drink package with Voom for $62 for an Oct 4 sailing on Enchantment of the Seas. Today the drink package was down to $49 and the drink package with Voom was down to $57. Quote

markm Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 If you want it just buy it and then watch everytime it changes price. Right now on my cruise it just dropped (or did it) to $49. Remember unless you are cruising solo that price is for each person in your cabin. Prior it was $62 and half price for 2nd person , that actually may be cheaper, but you have to check out half price of what, $62 or onboard price. There are deals to be made but RCCL has to make a profit and it appears they offer a lot of different types of prices that in the end are close to the same price Quote
