What is a P&O Cruise Drinks Package
When you book a holiday with P&O Cruises, you have the handy option of prepaying for a range of delicious drinks - from soft drinks and tea to cocktails and wine - with a convenient and cost-effective Drinks or Beverages Package. You can purchase these packages both before or after you board.
Cruiselings' Tip: You’ll get a discount if you purchase early!
We offer four main Drinks Packages. The 'Premium Beverage Package' and 'The Lot! Beverage Package' are available to adult guests 18 + years on cruises of seven nights or more, and the 'Soft Drinks Package' and 'Refreshment Package' are available to all guests onboard any cruise.
Drinks packages can be pre-purchased in Cruise Control, or by contacting our Customer Service team, from approximately 90 days up until 4 days before departure or up to the end of the first sea day when onboard. Please note that all prices quoted on this page are in AUD.
