Hi , I just booked my cruise for Alaska May 2023 With RCI Brilliance of the Seas for our Anniversary, this is my 2nd cruise and I'm still a newbie. I have a question about the drink package, I'm not a big alcoholic drinker and can go without it , my husband - well not so much. The package is very expensive. 1-if we buy a drink package (non alcoholic) , would that be the option to go? and if my husband buys any alcoholic drinks - he as to pay for it on the spot? 2- can we bring a case of water on the ship, or beer ? or is there bottle fountains , can i bring a refillable water bottle ? any frugal tips is much appreciated!!
