2024 Royal Caribbean Drink Package Prices
A drink package is one of the few things to purchase in addition to your Royal Caribbean cruise. So the common question when booking your Royal Caribbean cruise is which drink package should I get. We have a list of updated prices for 2024 cruises as well as what’s included in them compared to 2023 on a variety of ships.
There are four things to keep in mind when booking your drink package:
- Everyone in your room has to purchase the same drink package if it’s a full alcohol package otherwise known as Deluxe Beverage Package.
- Drink package prices do not include the standard 18% gratuity that Royal Caribbean adds to all of its drink packages at checkout.
- All beverage packages exclude anything served inside a licensed Starbucks store.
- Not all ships have the same prices (Icon Of the Seas prices are a little more) it’s generally only the alcoholic price changes.
Royal Caribbean has some standard discounts they provide pre-cruise to most of its drink packages. The discount column reflects the average price of these discounts.
