The price point during this promotional period influences the perceived value proposition of acquiring such packages.
The attractiveness of these deals stems from the potential for significant savings compared to purchasing individual beverages throughout the cruise. Historically, this promotional period has provided opportunities for consumers to acquire add-ons, such as beverage packages, at reduced rates, increasing the overall affordability of the vacation.
