Cruise Advisor planning guide. Verify changing prices, policies and itineraries with the relevant provider before booking.
One of the most frequently asked questions I get from UK cruisers is about the **Celebrity Cruises Classic Drinks Package menu 2026**: what exactly does it include, how much does it cost, and is it truly worth the investment? Celebrity Cruises is known for its modern luxury and sophisticated atmosphere, and their drink packages are designed to complement that experience. In this comprehensive guide, I'll break down everything you need to know, drawing on my personal experiences from sailings on ships like Celebrity Apex and Celebrity Edge, to help you decide if it's the right choice for your next voyage.
The Celebrity Cruises Classic Drinks Package for 2026 includes an extensive selection of beers, spirits, wines by the glass, cocktails, frozen drinks, sodas, fresh juices, bottled water, specialty coffees, and teas, with a **per-drink value limit of $10 USD**. It typically costs between £50-£65 per person, per day, when purchased onboard, but can be cheaper if booked pre-cruise as part of a package. It's generally worth it for those who consume 4-5 alcoholic drinks daily plus non-alcoholic options.
The Celebrity Cruises Classic Drinks Package is designed to offer a wide variety of beverages without the worry of a growing bar tab. It’s their standard alcoholic drinks package, sitting below the more inclusive Premium Package. This package is often included as part of Celebrity's 'Always Included' or 'All Included' promotions, which bundle drinks and Wi-Fi into your cruise fare, making it a very popular choice for many guests. It aims to provide a seamless, cashless experience for most of your beverage needs throughout your cruise.
Whether I was enjoying a morning cappuccino, a refreshing soda by the pool, or an evening cocktail, I rarely felt limited by the selection. It truly enhances the relaxation aspect of a cruise, knowing that most of your drinks are already taken care of, allowing you to focus on enjoying your holiday.
