Unfortunately, no. If there are two or more guests aged 18 or over in a cabin, all adults must purchase the same drinks package. Sharing or transferring packages is not permitted.
However, children (17 and under) can have the Refresh Package independently, and this can be purchased separately onboard.

Unfortunately, no. Drinks packages are entirely optional. Guests can choose to pay for drinks individually via their onboard account.

You can buy your drinks package in one of three ways:
- At time of booking: if you book a Select Price or Early Saver fare (on cruises of 5 nights or more sailing on/after 1 March 2024), you can add the Classic Drinks Package and get a 10% discount.
- Via My P&O Cruises: up to three days before departure. A 10% discount also applies here.
- Onboard: packages can be purchased during the first two days of the cruise (note: onboard purchases are not discounted).
If you booked directly through us, you can still purchase a package via My P&O Cruises.

If you purchased a drinks package in advance, your cruise card will feature a sticker that identifies your chosen package. Present your cruise card each time you order a drink.

Yes, all drinks packages come with the following rules:
- Only one drink may be ordered at a time.
