Knowing what’s included helps you plan—and avoid surprise charges on board.

Typically Included:

  • Main dining room & buffet meals
  • Basic drinks (water, tea, coffee, juice at breakfast)
  • Most onboard activities (pools, shows, trivia, kids’ clubs)
  • Standard stateroom and housekeeping
  • Port taxes & fees

Not Included (Usually Extra):

  • Alcoholic beverages, soda, specialty coffees
  • Specialty restaurants
  • Shore excursions
  • Gratuities/tips

Local Insider Tip:
Look for “drink package” or “dining package” deals before you sail—sometimes cheaper if booked pre-cruise!
