Hi, Drink packages are purchased separately and there’s a gratuity charge of usually 18%. Thanks for your question.

Hi Kerry,
I don’t think I’d purchase one either. And yes, I agree, I’m sure that the cruise lines have learned the hard way that people cheat on the packages. Thanks for your comment!

If I was traveling with a friend who wanted the package, I wouldn’t buy it….I understand why the cruise lines do it that way though, as I am sure there are people who abuse the system.
