Three major have announced significant changes to their drink packages which will cost passengers more money. 

Though these adjustments aim to streamline the beverage experience, prioritize safety, and improve overall service, they reflect an industry-wide trend toward higher cruise costs. 

The changes affect passengers sailing with Norwegian, MSC, and Carnival, with some cruisers likely to pay an additional $80 or more for drink packages on a 7-night cruise in 2025.

Ever wondered what the biggest or smallest cruise ship is in Norwegian Cruise Line's fleet?

Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL) currently has 19 vessels in its fleet, making it one of the largest cruise lines in the industry. Upon the launch of Norweigan Aqua in 2025, their fleet will expand to 26 ships in operation. 

Norwegian Cruise Line was founded in 1966. Their first ship, Sunward, operated as a ferry between Southampton and Gibraltar and was a mere 8,666 tons. It was not until 1971 that they started operating cruise ships that could not carry vehicles.
