What is generally included in the price of a cruise?
As a general rule the cost of the cruise refers to the cruise price only. However, by the time your agent presents the Cruise Package Price to you, it will more likely include any necessary extras (e.g. taxes, port charges, air add on). Included in the cruise price would be your room, all of the shipboard entertainment, like Las Vegas style reviews, pool games, deck parties, all meals (with the exception of some exclusive dining choices, which are optional and come with a fixed per person price), 24 hour room service, and non-alcoholic drinks except for sodas. Soda cards can be purchased on most cruise lines.
