First time on RC - beverage package question


Recommended Posts

There are 2 kids and 2 adults in our party. Can we each select a different beverage package or do all the guests have to have the same one?

For breakfast, is juice available or do you need to have the beverage package that includes it? 

We have never sailed with Royal Caribbean so any help is appreciated.

The basic rule is that everyone above 21 at the same stateroom should get the same drinking package. RCL will allow one to get the deluxe package and other to get the non alcoholic package (refreshments package) if proving it's due to health restrictions.

At breakfast you get some canned not fresh  OJ

Are you in 2 cabins? If so, separating the adults so you have one adult and one child in each cabin lets you do whatever you want with drink packages since then there'd just be one person of drinking age in each cabin.

Otherwise you usually can get them to sell one adult the Deluxe Beverage Package and the other the Refreshment Package if you call; usually that's all they need -- being called/asked. Usually the Classic Soda Package is NOT an option for one of the adults in this situation. 

The Refreshment Package and Classic Soda Package could be purchased for either or both of your kids. The Refreshment Package can be purchased for either or both of the adults. The only issue is when an alcoholic beverage package is involved and there are multiple adults of drinking age sharing the cabin.

If you're traveling on Adventure of the Seas out of The Bahamas, or one of the European sailings, the drinking age onboard will be 18, and not 21, so that would affect who's considered an adult, of course.

Be aware there currently is a Cruise Planner Sale that ends today (6/2/2021) that is applicable to all sailings departing through 5/31/2022. Sales occur pretty regularly, usually a week or three off then a week on again. And sometimes shifted a bit so the sale coincides with major US holidays. It's very likely the next sale won't start until near the July 4th/Independence Day weekend. Everything on the Cruise Planner can be canceled before sailing and a full refund issued, so if you buy something now, and later see the price drop, you can cancel the purchase of the item and buy it again at the lower price. Be just a little careful because once you cancel it it's canceled, and if you discover you made a mistake and the new price is actually higher, you're stuck; you can't take back the cancelation. You generally can't buy things that are associated with an individual until you've canceled the same item associated with the same individual (i.e., you can't buy a second drink package for yourself and then cancel the first; you have to cancel the first and then buy it again).

Everything available via any Drink Package can be purchased a la carte.
