What is the Princess drink package discount?

The Plus Beverage Package includes all beverages priced up to $15.00 USD/$22 AUD each as listed on Princess' menu(s). Any bottle of wine, one-liter bottles of water purchased on board with the Plus Beverage Package will receive a 25% discount.



Princess Cruises offers a significant "bundle" discount through its Princess Plus and Princess Premier packages, rather than a standalone discount on individual drinks. In 2026, the Princess Plus package (typically $60 per person/day) includes the Plus Beverage Package, which covers drinks up to $15 each, along with Wi-Fi and gratuities—saving guests over 50% compared to buying these items separately. The Princess Premier package (roughly $80 per person/day) elevates this to the Premier Beverage Package (drinks up to $20 each), multi-device Wi-Fi, and specialty dining, offering a total value discount of over 65%. For those who prefer non-alcoholic options, the Zero-Alcohol Package costs around $30 per day and covers premium coffees, sodas, and mocktails. While Princess occasionally runs "Free Drink Package" promotions for new bookings, the "hidden" discount is always found in these bundled fares, which allow travelers to enjoy a virtually all-inclusive experience for a fraction of the "a la carte" price.
