What's Included in the Carnival Cruises Drinks Package?
CHEERS! is an all-inclusive beverage program that allows you to enjoy a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages by paying a flat daily rate. You must be 21 or older to purchase CHEERS! and each adult assigned to the same stateroom must purchase the program.
Carnival has enhanced their CHEERS! beverage programme to include a greater variety of non-alcoholic beverages, as well as a wider selection of high-quality brand-name spirits and wines by the glass.
It is always cheaper to pre-purchase your drinks package than to wait until you are onboard.
