Does Royal Caribbean ever discount their drink packages?

From time to time, Royal Caribbean may offer a drink package discount. These discounts are offered selectively and can vary in terms of how much the discount is and for which sailings they are eligible. Nearly all discounts we have seen are offered prior to the cruise on the Cruise Planner web site.
