Matt Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Can you drink 5-7 drinks per day, every day of your cruise? The answer to that question is quite often the determination if the drink package makes sense for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monorailmedic Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 As Matt mentioned, figure out what you'd spend otherwise. 5-7 drinks is frequently the break even point, but it of course depends on if there is a sale on the package, and what you drink. You'll find menus at the link below (in addition to others around and about the internet), but as a very vague average, I'd say $9-11/drink is a reasonable enough way to think about things. http://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/menus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocLC Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I have found the Royal Replenish to be a good value for me and have bought it on the last three cruises. It's about $20 per day, but with a couple of specialty coffees, a couple of sodas, and a nonalcoholic cocktail in the evening, not to mention bottles of water to take on excursions, it is easy to break even or even do better than that. However, the value of a drink package suffers dramatically as you add port stops. For instance, on our next cruise in July, we are on a 13 night voyage with a single sea day with 5 overnights and several late night stops. Since we'll be off the ship so much, there's no way I can get the value out of the drink package. FloatMe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firegal2539 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Hunter, Remember that you have to buy a drink package for your daughter and one for yourself. You can't share a drink package so the price will be double. I don't drink alcohol so I get the Royal Replenish package and as DocLC said I get a great value out of that. On sea days I am in the casino most of the time and drink five to six sodas. I take water on shore excursions and I take two glasses of coke to the room at night to take my medication with.
