Having been on cruises before comes in handy when it comes to adult beverage purchases. One knows what to expect. One friend ran up a several thousand dollar bar tab while on a cruise. He never made that mistake again.
That's why I limited myself to one (sometimes two) cocktails a day while on a cruise. Passengers are charged though their cruise room cards at ship bars. Just because there's no money being exchanged doesn't mean drinks are free. At the end of last year's cruise to the Bahamas, I didn't get any shocking bar charges.
Royal Caribbean is raising prices on cocktails according to Cruise Passenger.
They wrote:
Royal Caribbean general cocktail prices look to be jumping from $14 to $15.
Royal Caribbean Blog reported seeing the prices jump up, with many of the cruise line’s signature cocktails, which were previously $14, now coming out to $15.
The good news is that drinks packages will be adjusted to cover this change, with packages now to cover drinks purchases up to $15, more than the previous limit of $14.
Therefore, unless drink package prices rise, this change won’t affect cruisers who purchase a drinks package on their Royal Caribbean cruise. However, it will affect those who opt out of the drinks package.
