P&O Cruises Drinks Packages
Whether you prefer refreshing soft drinks, speciality coffees or perfectly mixed cocktails, P&O Cruises offers a choice of drinks packages designed to suit your tastes. From the simple Refresh package to the indulgent Deluxe, there is something for everyone. With P&O’s new bundled fare option, you can now add the Classic drinks package at the time of booking, giving you even more value and convenience.
Why Choose a Drinks Package?
A drinks package is the easiest way to enjoy your favourite beverages throughout your holiday. From your morning cappuccino to a glass of wine with dinner and an evening cocktail on deck, everything is taken care of. With a package, you can relax knowing your drinks are already covered, making every sip part of the enjoyment rather than something to budget for.
Classic Package
The Classic package is P&O’s most popular choice and is designed to balance variety with value. It includes everything from the Alcohol Free package, as well as a wide selection of cocktails, beers, ciders, wines by the glass and Prosecco up to a set menu price. Spirits and liqueurs are also available in standard measures, making it easy to enjoy a gin and tonic, a refreshing pint or a glass of wine with dinner. The Classic package is now available as part of P&O’s bundled fares, meaning you can add it at the time of booking and begin your holiday with drinks already included.
Deluxe Package
For those who want the very best, the Deluxe package offers the widest range of drinks at sea. It includes everything in the Classic package, but expands the choice to premium cocktails, craft beers, extended wine pours, large spirit measures and a broader selection of premium brands. This package is perfect for guests who want to celebrate special moments in style, indulge in P&O’s most creative cocktail menus, or simply enjoy the reassurance of knowing the finest drinks are included throughout their voyage.
Refresh (Soft Drinks)
The Refresh package is ideal for guests who want simple and unlimited refreshment without alcohol. It includes a wide choice of fountain sodas, selected fruit juices and squash, available whenever you like. Whether you are cooling down after a day ashore or enjoying a refreshing drink by the pool, this package ensures you never go thirsty. It is also an excellent choice for families who want an easy way to keep children supplied with soft drinks throughout their cruise.
Alcohol Free Package
For guests who want more variety without alcohol, the Alcohol Free package is the perfect upgrade. It includes everything in the Refresh package, along with non-alcoholic cocktails, zero-alcohol wines and beers, Costa Coffee favourites, speciality teas and indulgent hot chocolates. This package is designed for those who enjoy the ritual of coffee in the morning, a smoothie in the afternoon and a mocktail in the evening. It offers all the variety of an inclusive experience, without the alcohol.
Booking Your Drinks Package with Bundled Fares
With P&O Cruises’ new bundled fare option, you can now add the Classic package at the time of booking. This not only ensures excellent value compared with purchasing on board, it also means your drinks are already taken care of before you even step on the ship. Booking in advance creates a more relaxed holiday, where you can enjoy every moment without thinking about the cost of individual drinks.
Bars and Lounges Onboard
P&O Cruises offers a wide variety of bars and lounges, each with its own unique atmosphere. A drinks package is the perfect way to make the most of them. Watch the horizon unfold from the elegant Crow’s Nest, relax with friends in the Ocean’s Bar, or enjoy a lively evening in the Sky Bar under the stars. Each venue has its own character, from quiet sophistication to vibrant entertainment, and your chosen package means you can sample them all with ease. Whether you are toasting a special occasion with sparkling wine or enjoying a perfectly prepared cocktail, the bars and lounges on board are the ideal settings to make every drink memorable.
