I think you need to find a current price list and be honest with yourself about your drinking habits and see if it makes sense. I actually drank less than I thought I would since we were so busy with other activities. I also don't drink specialty coffees and the water filling stations were fine for me.

Also glad we didn't get the soda package because the 12 packs we brought on board were enough.
Same with me. I've added it up and I drank half of what the package cost and that was trying hard to make it work. I eventually got tired of drinking beer and coffee was complimentary with breakfast. So a waste of money for me to get the drinks package.
