Your Guide to Carnival’s Drink Packages on the Fun Ships

If you’ve ever sailed Carnival, you know one thing for sure — they don’t call it the Fun Ship for nothing! From poolside DJs to deck parties under the stars, Carnival brings the energy… and the drinks to match.

So let’s talk about the two most popular drink options onboard: CHEERS! and Bottomless Bubbles

Because whether you’re team cocktail or team Coke Zero, there’s a plan for you.

CHEERS! – The Ultimate Fun Ship Upgrade

If your idea of vacation includes a frozen concoction in your hand at 10:00 AM (no judgment here), CHEERS! might be your new best friend.

What’s Included:

Cocktails (yes, the fun ones with umbrellas)
Frozen drinks & daiquiris
Beer & wine (by the glass)
Spirits & mixed drinks (up to $20 per drink)
Specialty coffees
Energy drinks
Bottled water
Zero-proof cocktails
25% off bottled wine & select drinks over $20
You can order up to 15 alcoholic drinks per 24-hour period (which is plenty for most humans).

Pro Tip: Buy before you board to save money!

Perfect for:

Pool loungers
Wine at dinner people
Celebration cruises
Coffee lovers who hit JavaBlue daily
Anyone leaning all the way into vacation mode

Bottomless Bubbles – Soda Lovers Unite!

Not everyone wants cocktails all day — and that’s where Bottomless Bubbles shines.

What’s Included:

Unlimited soda
Juice (at select times)

That’s it. Simple. Easy. Hydrated.

You’ll get unlimited fountain soda throughout your cruise, which is perfect for:

Diet Coke loyalists
Families with teens
Mocktail fans
Guests who don’t drink alcohol
Budget-conscious cruisers

Is It Worth It?

Here’s how I tell my clients...

If you’ll have:

5–6 alcoholic drinks per day
Specialty coffee daily
Bottled water regularly

CHEERS! usually pays for itself. If you’re mostly drinking soda or just a cocktail here and there? Bottomless Bubbles (or paying à la carte) may be the smarter move.

Of note: Must be 21+ to purchase the Cheers Package. Pricing is per person, per day for both packages. Ask before you book to see the latest pricing from Carnival.

The Fun Ship Factor

Here’s the thing about Carnival — the energy is high, the music is playing, the sail away party is electric, and that first drink just hits different when you’re sailing away from port.

Whether you’re:

Toes in the Lido pool
Singing at piano bar
Watching the sunset on deck
Celebrating a birthday, girls’ trip, or family reunion

There’s a drink package that fits your cruise vibe.

My Advice as an All In Vacay Cruise Planner

If you're sailing a Carnival Fun Ship, let’s talk through:

Your travel style
Who’s in your cabin
Celebration plans
Budget goals

Because sometimes CHEERS! makes the party easier… and sometimes keeping it simple is the win. Either way? You’re sailing on a Fun Ship. The good times are included.
