Does Royal Caribbean have Coke or Pepsi?

Cruise Lines That Serve Coca-Cola Products Royal Caribbean is the largest cruise line to offer Coca-Cola drinks -- and not simply in the cruise line's bars and restaurants; cruisers that spring for a refreshment package can help themselves to Coke's Freestyle fountain machines located throughout select ships.



Royal Caribbean International serves Coca-Cola products exclusively across its entire global fleet. This long-standing partnership ensures that fans of Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, and Seagram's Ginger Ale will find their favorite beverages at every bar, restaurant, and lounge on board. In 2026, a key feature for soda lovers is the Coca-Cola Freestyle machines, which offer over 100 different flavor combinations. To use these machines, guests must purchase a "Classic Soda Package" or a "Refreshment Package," which provides them with a specialized RFID-chipped souvenir cup. As of March 2025, Royal Caribbean introduced a controversial policy where the physical souvenir cup now carries a small extra fee for some higher-tier drink packages that previously included it for free. For those who prefer Pepsi products, it is important to note that you are generally permitted to bring a small quantity of your own sodas (usually up to 12 cans/bottles per stateroom) at embarkation, allowing you to enjoy your preferred brand while still taking advantage of the ship's extensive bar and lounge services.
