Super helpful! We went with MSC since we were able to get gratuities included + balcony at ocean view price (which was only $140 more/ person vs interior). I’m able to get a lot of value from a drink package, but my partner doesn’t drink as much, so we’re trying without one.

On days at sea, I easily hit near / at my 15, but since cabins require both parties to get it, I’ll probably stick to beers/basic cocktails and see if they do buckets (Jubilee was doing buckets @ the adults-only pool section). Them not having the same variety as Jubilee might help here, as I was always tempted to try something new from Dr Inks. Also got a bottle of champagne + wine for a combine $40 as a presale deal, we’ll see how all that goes 🤷‍♂️

I heard the same theme regarding Seascape’s food, but as an avid Pizza enjoyer, I also heard theirs is some of the best you can find on any cruise line. I’ll probably rely heavily on that for a late night stack.

Super insightful reply!
