Cruise ships must abide by national and international regulations in order to keep passengers safe from unsafe water. Water from the ships is tested multiple times a day and the ships are equipped with sophisticated filtration systems. Additionally, water used to make ice is regularly tested to maintain its safety.
Water will be delivered to your stateroom on embarkation day. Bottled water may also be purchased on board by contacting Room Service. Once on board, your purchase is non-refundable; you may take home any unopened bottles. Carnival carries distilled water which can be purchased either pre-cruise or once on board.
Water used for drinking is usually taken from seawater undergoing a desalination process. River cruise ships have smaller water stores. Fresh water supplies are topped up during each port visit, which isn't a huge problem since their travels don't run several days between port visits.
When a toilet is flushed on a cruise ship, the sewage travels to the onboard treatment plant. Here the waste is filtered before it enters an aeration chamber. The aeration chamber cleans the waste. It is then sterilized using UV light and released into the ocean when clean enough to do so.
The Water Package is an option for guests sailing with Royal Caribbean to order water in various package sizes at a discounted price. The Water Package will be delivered to your stateroom on the date you request. You can choose between 6, 12 or 24 packs of water.

Water is always free of charge on most cruise ships. You may be asked to pay a fee for some versions of bottled water. However, you can likely ask for a jug of iced water in any restaurant or bar for no added cost. There are several water dispensers present on a cruise ship so that you can help yourself.
