Crystal Cruise Line Drink Packages
Last Updated: November 2026 | Reviewed by: Daniela Cervantes, Staff Writer
Crystal Cruises operates as an ultra-luxury, all-inclusive cruise line where a vast array of fine wines, Champagne, premium spirits, craft cocktails, and specialty non-alcoholic beverages are built directly into the standard cruise fare. Guests do not need to purchase a daily drink package.
What is Included
The complimentary beverage selection on Crystal is comprehensive and available across all onboard dining venues, lounges, pool decks, and in-suite dining throughout the day and night:
- Champagne & Fine Wines: Unlimited pouring of sommelier-selected fine wines (red, white, rose), prosecco, and house Champagne by the glass across all main and specialty restaurants.
- Premium Spirits & Cocktails: Top-shelf liquors, craft spirits, aperitifs, digestifs, and signature handcrafted cocktails across all onboard bars and lounges.
- Beers & Ciders: Premium domestic, imported, and craft beers.
- Specialty Coffees & Teas: Barista-crafted espresso beverages (cappuccinos, lattes, espresso), Julius Meinl specialty coffees, loose-leaf teas, and traditional Afternoon Tea service in the Palm Court.
- Non-Alcoholic Beverages: Zero-proof mocktails, fountain soft drinks (Coca-Cola products), fresh fruit juices, iced tea, and bottled still and sparkling mineral water.
- In-Suite Minibar: Restocked daily by your dedicated butler with complimentary still and sparkling water, sodas, beer, wine, and coffee. Butler service can also deliver preferred drinks directly to your stateroom.
Exceptions & Out-of-Pocket Charges
While the standard all-inclusive menu covers virtually all guest preferences without a bar bill, select ultra-premium items carry an optional extra fee:
- Connoisseur Wine List: Rare vintage wines, iconic Champagnes, and ultra-rare small-batch spirits outside the extensive complimentary cellar list are available for optional purchase by the bottle.
- The Vintage Room: Exclusive, sommelier-hosted fine wine dinner experiences and rare vintage tasting menus carry a set per-person surcharge.
Policy Guidelines & Terms
- Included Service Charges: Onboard gratuities for all dining room, lounge, and bar staff are fully prepaid in the cruise fare; no additional auto-gratuities or service charges are added to drink orders.
- Personal Alcohol & Corkage Policy: Guests are permitted to bring personal wine or spirits onboard for stateroom or public venue consumption without paying a corkage fee.
- No Package Requirements: Because Crystal operates on a fully inclusive basis, there are no stateroom package matching rules or daily spending limits.
