Carnival Drink Package | 2024 UPDATED - DO NOT BUY BEFORE WATCHING 

Right!! That's why it's hard for me to hop on other cruise lines at the moment. Virgin Voyages 🤷‍♂️

Great advice 😂 Those hard lix you ared to the room though are crazy crazy expensive

Very good!! Luckily, you had that option, a lot of people have to just suffer and buy!

That’s a great point! Thanks David 🥂

How did you do the 5 liters of liquor??

went thru customs and no one ever asked what I was declaring @@BoatBreakersNJ

@@BoatBreakersNJcame to ask that lol

@@BoatBreakersNJprobably the same thing I did I ordered a pitcher 🤣🤣😂🤦🏾‍♂️😏

Must be nice if you don't have to fly home right after 🤷‍♀️😥

Haha we just did this on the Vista! Hands down the best thing you can do for yourself 🔥

​@@BoatBreakersNJ Which bar location on the Vista? Have a cruise on Vista in June.

Vista Tour drops today at 12 noon EST!! I'd say either Lido bar, Red Frog Rum or Tequila Bar

You got the science down! Which cruise line made better cocktails?

Absence my pleasure! Have a good time!! 🥂

Lolllll! I want to vacation with you 🤣

Yeah it’s hard when they force everyone in the room to get the package, if you sail with friends you can book the two drinkers together and switch rooms when you board!

Been on too many where it was more expensive than the cruise 🤷‍♂️

Thank you, glad it was helpful!

Yeaaa! Get out the comfort zone 😊 Try something new!

They have the bottomless bubbles package, it doesn’t include coffee or specialty drinks but bottomless soda at least!

@@BoatBreakersNJ I am aware of that package but it’s not the same as having non alcoholic beverages included like royal,

That’s the smart way to do it 😉

Thanks Danny, you know we will! 🥂

Sounds exactly like a Carnival cruise 😥 Just got of the Vista with many similar experiences 🤷‍♂️

We’re trying!

Appreciate that!!🥂

I believe you only get charged for nights not days!

Yeah the package makes sense if you do 6 or more drinks a day, plus it’s just peace of mind that you don’t have to worry about keeping a tally.

They are unlimited I believe! I know for sure, coffees and energy drinks are! Id say share around the corner and wait 5 mins 😅

Hey there first timer! So unfortunately no bottle water or soda is included in the base cruise fare. Only drinks avaliable will be fountain water, fountain juice located in buffet area and drip coffee.

Dam! Sorry to hear about that! Usually Carnivals service is better and the Celebration being their newest ship they should do better! This is how they lose customers!! SIDENOTE! I was right next to you on the Wonder of the Seas.. took same dates!!

I'll just drink water and tea if I have to drink Pepsi products. Thanks for letting us know this

Not a fan of Carnival but did the Celebration last summer because we joined other family members on their cruise. If you drink little to no alcohol or soda, I would not buy a beverage package. We got one soda pkg, and it was a colossal waste of💰. Who makes somebody wait 15 minutes before being able to refill a cup of a soft drink. WHO DOES THAT AND WHY?? Drink the iced tea, lemonade and free juices at breakfast. Bring your refillable bottles and save yourself 💰💰💰💰💰

We were on the Carnival Celebration ship the same time you were and YOUR RIGHT! Me and my husband were complaining about the same thing! If you're charging for drink packages, PLEASE MAKE SURE THE MACHINES ARE WORKING AND ACCESSIBLE!

So did you not bring 212 packs on board with you or the number for your cabin? What about? Did you buy Pepsi at ports?? If Pepsi, is that important to you…

15 max with or without the package. If you get 15 with package and try to pay for number 16, they won't let you.

We are currently making one! Should be good to go soon 🥂

They do not, it’s just 15 alcoholic drinks

Some say it works, others say it doesn't. When you order a beer from pizza, ask for it not to be opened 😭

We get a lot of comments like this so I’m sure carnival does too, hopefully it happens!

Yes! Why is there not a package in between the bubbles and cheers. That includes specialty coffees, shakes, fresh juries, and smoothies. Everyone doesn't drink alcohol but would like more than pop and juice.

Yup! It definitely does, all alcoholic beverages count towards your 15

You can get a free bottle of water with every drink! Also, Gatorade is included with the package

When you are getting pff the ship, they do not check!

Oh absolutely not! You'd be ok doing that I'm sure. Like you said around the corner you're good!! They are usually busy as hell anyways. Since it's coffee and energy drinks are unlimited I horde energy drinks in the rooms mini fridge

@@BoatBreakersNJI’ll pass this on to my friend.

Absolutely

You cannot use the package day one out of Texas or NY unfortunately 😕

@@BoatBreakersNJYeah you didn’t answer the question. He’s leaving from Texas on a 7 day cruise and is asking if he’s paying for a 7 day package or a 6 day package because it’s not available until Day 2.

You don't pay for day 1

Nope, only alcoholic beverages ☺️ Those are unlimited 🥂

Yeah carnival definitely has its drawbacks!

Yes. Norwegian has a strict policy concerning the number of drinks you can have in a 24 hour period. Their policy is, you must stop drinking when you are throwing up overboard or passed out face down in the pool or hot tub.

Carnival, take notes!

Nope the 15 is just alcoholic drinks, it’s unlimited non alcoholic!

@@BoatBreakersNJ just saw this but thank you! 😄

No way?! Any reason? I'm curious if they've changed that rule here as well?! I have to see

@@BoatBreakersNJ so annoying RU-vidr move my posts after I posted a link but the Australian website says that it doesn't include it and the American website says it does include it in the in drinks package AMERCIAN CHEERS! INCLUDES: All spirits (including cocktails), as well as beer and wine by the glass with a $20.00 or lower menu price Sodas, Zero-Proof frozen cocktails, energy drinks, specialty coffee, hot tea, 500ml bottled water and other non-alcoholic bottled beverages Packaged water in the Dining Room and Specialty Restaurants 25% discount off the menu price for any spirit or wine by the glass above $20.00 25% discount off the menu price for wine and champagne by the bottle 25% discount off beverage seminars and classes AUSTRALIAN CHEERS PACKAGE: WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CHEERS! DRINK PACKAGE? - Beverages promoted and sold in souvenir glasses. - Bottles of liquor. - Beverages offered at gangway. - Beverages offered through room service, in-stateroom beverage programs, and apps. - Sharing cocktails, floaters, pitchers, tubes and buckets. - All other beverage-related programs including merchandise and cigarettes. - Food items. - Fresh pressed and squeezed juices. - Specialty coffee and tea.

@@BoatBreakersNJ Yeah, I checked. The American website said it includes specialty coffee and the Australian website said it doesn't include specialty coffee. I have no idea why they are different. I might have to contact them. As I'm cruising in March next year

@@BoatBreakersNJ Yeah, the American website says it includes specialty coffee but the Australian website says it does not include specialty coffee. So weird. I don't know why they are different

You should be locked in at whatever the current price is. They will not come back and ask you for more money!

You’re making me blush 🙈

Its a shame 😥 YES, milkshakes are good to go! It does, however, say on their website '*where available', meaning some ships might not carry! Also, you can get them spiked 😈

@@BoatBreakersNJ Yea. That's true. We did have them on our last cruise. I am being told now you only get them with the Cheers package. In order to make it financially viable I would have to come back from the cruise weighing 4oo lbs. Thinking about it...

You can not use cheers discount to purchase pitchers or buckets, just wine, liquor above $20 and classes according to their website.

@@BoatBreakersNJ thanks.

Absolutely 😁

Heyyy! When off the ship, they have no way of tracking your drinks. Go crazy 😈 I've heard they will not deliver unopened to the room, but who knows what could happen with a small tip 🥂

Ok, thanks brother! 👍

Absolutely!! Same

I should have mentioned. I believe this is for New York & Texas only do to some laws

I can’t see how this is beneficial. There’s no way I’m going through 15 drinks. It should include the $20+ drinks and Carnival locations off the ship.

You only have to drink 7 drinks a day for it to be “worth it”, if you’re a heavy drinker it pays for itself.

Nope those are unlimited and do not count towards your 15. So go have as many coffees or energy or soda your heart desires

So the specialty coffees are unlimited and don't count towards the 15 drinks a day?

Correct!!

Yeah New York and Texas are rough

You are correct both in Texas and New York it does not work!

It’s only when you’re in port. Once the ship is out to sea you can use it

Unfortunately not, you can go to the customer service desk and load your card with cash but they do not take cash anywhere else on board.

Except the casino

Dad!!! He's going to be so proud of me 🏆

Honestly what I’ve noticed is that people will go super hard on short cruises and then on longer ones people are tired of waking up really hungover halfway through the cruise so they’ll chill a little bit more

@@BoatBreakersNJ that really does make sense thank you. Are the non alcoholic unlimited ?

Yes, with the package!

It’s about money

So there's a bubble package! Buttttt, if you are into finessing 😉 your Cheers package has unlimited drinks of any kind! (Alc is 15 max) Coffees, soda, energy drinks...

@@BoatBreakersNJ so I have a max of 15 drinks per day regardless of alcohol and non-alcohol for my fitness days wink LOL

Did you watch the video 🤣 So only alcoholic beverages count towards your 15. Everything else is unlimited 🥂

I must have been refilling my wine class at that moment 🤣

Gotta get some practice in before the cruise 😜

I do be forgetting things 😔

@BoatBreakersNJ no problem we priced cheers yesterday for an 8 days, was $990.00 for 2 prople

Not too bad? What you think

@@BoatBreakersNJ I could go on another cruise lol

This is very true! Just unfortunately you will be stuck with water and juice 🤣

🤣 Finesse is the game!!

If you go to their website it even says $59.95 a person, I would check again because you are getting ripped off if that’s what you’re paying.

That's insane are you using carnivals website? It shouldn't be that much on the ship either

I do be dreaming 🥂

Tip the right bartender and it’s 20 drinks 😜

I would call them and set that straight, if you have a doctors note I could see that being an easy fix.

They have a form for that, needs to be filled out by your MD. It will allow you to be exempt from paying for the cheers package if the others in the room get it.

They do not carry Redbull products 😥

👀 You may need to see a doctor 🤣 That's crazy though

Me too, I couldn’t get a buzz at all on my second cruise. On my third I figured how to bring my own 😂

What yall sipping on!!

Lies

Everyone has their own ideas of what a relaxing vacation is, we’re just here to present facts about the packages🥂

@@BoatBreakersNJ You missed the wine packages by the bottles,some people don't drink hard liquor like myself..All the info you want is available on the cruise line website..

It doesn't make sense to scalp a few extra bucks on shorter cruises 🥺 The rule that everyone in the cabin has to have it too should be enough. They have to do better

@@BoatBreakersNJ I think what they need tk do is take a page out of royals book and have a middle package that includes everything excpt alcohol, and charge maybe 20-25 per day but not force both people to get it. I'd get that and try all the coffee and milkshakes Last 8 day cruise I only had 2 cocktails, but that's because I generally don't like most drinks since I can't stand the taste of alcohol... Which is the appeal of the package because I could try wighout worrying I'd hate it. but I'm not going to drop $140 a day since although mom does drink soda that's all she'd use. Maybe 1-2 virgin drinks. If I could just pay for myself, then 100% I'd try it once because between the waters and thr coffee and (assuming I wasn't paying per drink) the 2-3 cocktails per day, I'd likely break even it just kills me with the 2 person rule.

If I was with someone that couldn’t drink it’d be cheaper for me to just buy drinks A la carte. Since my wife and I enjoy ourselves on the cruise the drink package actually saves us money compared to a la carte. But cheers definitely isn’t for everyone as a lot of reviews say it is

I agree with you! The fact still stands, they're trying to make a buck by putting the rule in place.. I say who cares if you share with your 21+ roommate... There's still a 15 drink max

The short cruises are usually over a weekend and considered booze cruises. People like to drink their weight in alcohol on these trips, so Carnival is making sure they get more money from these guests. At least this is my guess!

We don’t own carnival so we won’t be able to sell it, if you mean sail well.. that’s just bad advice.
