Is the drink package actually worth it?
It comes down to the math about how you actually vacation. If you'd normally order several cocktails, premium coffees, or fresh juices across a typical day, the Deluxe Beverage Package often works in your favor, especially if you catch a pre-cruise sale. Soft-drink and specialty-coffee fans should compare the Refreshment Package and Classic Soda Package before buying the full alcohol tier. On most sailings every drinking-age adult in the cabin has to buy the same alcoholic package if one does, so run the math for the whole room. Limited accommodations exist for disability, medical condition, or pregnancy. See the Atlas stateroom-rule FAQ before you assume anyone can opt out.
