Celebrity Summit's Martini Bar
It was on my last cruise that I was made aware of a new program... The All You Can Drink Package. If I recall correctly, it was about $56.00/day per person and it included all specialty coffees, soft drinks, water, premium beers, alcohol and wine. The question was.... to take it or do I pay as I go. Which way am I going to come out ahead, after all on a 7 day cruise we were talking about almost $800/couple!
I ran across an interesting article today which covered this very subject, so I thought I would pass it along:

The one comment that I quite agree is that the all you can drink package gives you a sense of freedom, not having to be concerned with that nagging question..."what is my bill going to be at the end of this cruise?"
In all honesty, I never approached the program with the attitude .... I am going to make sure I come out ahead... but in the end I felt that I probably broke even... plus or minus a few dollars. I guess I would do it again.
