How early can you purchase a drink package on Royal Caribbean?

You may purchase a beverage package, up to 72 hours before you sail, online at Royal Caribbean's Cruise Planner. Or you may purchase it onboard, on the first day of your cruise. Ask at any bar for more information, or look out for a table that has been set up to promote the packages once you are onboard.

But, in nearly all cases, the price before your cruise will be cheaper than waiting until you are onboard. Drink packages cannot be shared, and in a road sense, all four cruise lines require that all adults 21 and over staying in the same room buy a package if one is going to.

There is no limit on a Royal Caribbean drink package in terms of how many drinks a guest may consume in a day or throughout the cruise. The only limit on a drink package is that you may only order one drink per order, per drink package.

In many cases, no. Several of the biggest cruise lines, including Carnival, Holland America and MSC Cruises, have a rule that if one adult in a cabin orders a drinks package, all adults in the cabin must order the package. This is to prevent two or more people in a cabin from sharing a single drinks package.

Cruise line drinks packages let you order as many drinks as you want while on a cruise for one flat fee. This takes the place of paying for drinks one at a time. At some lines, there are several tiers of drinks packages. Basic tiers often just include sodas and bottled water.

Tips are therefore paid on the value of the package, and not per drink as you order. You're welcome to tip bartenders extra on a cruise, but keep in mind that a tip has already been added when you purchased the beverage package.

No. The rule for drink packages is that if one person in a room buys one, then all the adults in the room have to also buy their own drink package - they won't even sell you just one. If you're not big drinkers, then it's going to be way, WAY cheaper to just buy individual drinks as you want them.

MORE DETAILS

There are no set limits on how much you can drink. One exception is that Carnival does limit those with drink packages to 15 alcoholic beverages per day. (It's not clear if that limit applies to those without the package.) Still, for the most part you aren't under any clearly defined limit.
