MSC Drink Package - Watch Before You Buy! - Best Options for 2025

MSC Cruises has several beverage packages for guests to choose from on their cruise vacation. Starting with the alcohol-free Minor’s Package, we go through each option in detail. The Easy Plus Beverage Package is great for budget cruisers. If you’re looking for the ultimate luxury cruise experience, then the Premium Extra Package is for you.

We review all the fine print and break down exactly what is covered in each of the MSC drink packages. We include sample bar menus with prices of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. And we’ll help you do the math to decide which beverage package is best for your budget.

We got the premium extra package … I hope it’s worth it !!! This is for my wife’s 40th birthday and we are looking forward to Msc !

Great video, we got the easy plus package for our June sailing date. Should be a blast. Thanks for sharing

[LucaPalombo-jw]

Great video - that helped a lot! Thank you😊

[The_Real_Christian]

Really appreciate the video! Very helpful and well presented. Opting to bundle the Easy Plus package with our cruise fare was only $100 more when we booked (for an 8 day cruise). Couldn’t pass up that deal 🎉

[missfruit]

You just solidified my decision to do the $140 upgrade to premium before my cruise. Thank you!

[addie]

OMG this video was amazing!!! I'm planning a suprise cruise for my husband's birthday and I'm so excited. This will be our first cruise together. Do you know if the nonalcoholic package includes frozen virgin coctails?

Hello. I always choose Easy PLUS package for the simple reason that alcohol quality is better than Easy package. I was witnessing it at the bar. The vodka or white rum that was used in the Easy package cocktails were completely unknown and non branded stuff. Meanwhile the ones used in the Easy Plus were known high quality brands. You get what you pay for. However I will say that if you're someone who enjoys a few cocktails that aren't fancy you should definitely settle for the Easy package, or pay as you go with bill

Great video; very thorough, well done!

I cannot seem to make these prices match to what I was told by MSC today. We are doing a 4 night cruise and she told me the 40% off pricing before cruising for Easy plus would be $180. From the little algebra I can still do, that would mean full price is $300 or $75/day. She also told me minors would be $60 at the time of booking which would indicate $150 or $37.50/day at full price. I'm quite confused. With that said all your detail was super helpful.

Every cruise line has the same upgrades. Some for a higher price. Today, MSC charges $70.00 pp with gratuities & tax included, Check the others out.

It’s better to go as a group I decided to cancel my cruise because going solo will put a dent in your pocket 😊 I realized that not purchasing a package will cost you!!! After I watched this video I cancel my trip. I rather go with a group. Especially sailing for 6 days a learning lesson

[victoralves]

Thank you for the video. I will probably get the Easy package on my next cruise. Do you know what brand of spirits (vodka and whiskey) are normally included in these package?

[Baebae]

Thank you for the video. I have a question. I am booking an MSC cruise for the first time, and I noticed two options when booking online. For example, for a 7-night World America cruise, the ‘Cruise Only’ option costs $623 per person, while the ‘Add Drink & WiFi’ option costs $967 per person. The price difference between the two options is only $344, and since it’s a 7-night cruise, that means the Internet + Drinks Package costs about $50 per day. The price seems much lower than what I saw in the videos, which makes me a bit concerned. The website description states that the Premium Extra Drinks Package is included. Is this a discounted rate for purchasing it at the time of booking?

[angelaetheridge]

Hi. I was just told by our cruise conceirge that the rule is everyone dining together has to have 'A' Drink Package, not the same one. Just thought I'd share.

[cmeshunal]

Hello, txh for the video!!
Has anything changed from the period you were making this video? because for now on MSC site I found next info: Easy package includes alco below 7euro, and it's not allowed to get any spirit (vodka, gin, rum etc) because the cheapest one costs - 8, so I have to pay extra 1 euro + 15% tax t get it . Am I right?

[tb]

If the minor gets a drink package do adults have to get that same drink package?

[erickeenan]

Fascinating. As of right now, it is just a "one-size-fits-all" package called Premium Extra Package. No published prices without a booking, but from some sleuthing, It seems like it is around $60-70 per day (with the advertised 40% pre booking discount), otherwise it would be about $100 per day. 15 drink limit per day and premium drinks included. Too many drinks for me, no thank you. But in reality, you are looking at just arond 4 drinks per day, or 8 beers to get your "value'. So it doesn't seem too steep considering how cheap the cruise is. However, nothing like being shloshed in a crowded area making a fool out of oneself. Ha!

[Jeyzz-fylx]

For each beverage package, is there any limit for ordering allowed drinks in a day?
I booked 7 night cruise and I got an email from them to upgrade beverage packages. I see easy plus package is £327 per person. But is this price for entire 7 days and unlimited orders of allowed drinks? I m confused here

[flashbrito]

I'm going on Sunday just 1 question i got the easy plus package i can have more than 6 drinks?

[richardg]

How odd that the only beer included in the easy plan is Heineken.
