The Last Word with Matt Cooper · The Last Word on Travel: Is A Cruise The Holiday For You? · 27 Jul 2026 podcast

But I strongly advise you do because you'd be amazed unless you're obviously not a drinker, but you'd be amazed how like one or two cocktails at the pool, you know, then a few drinks before dinner.

wine with your meal, maybe drink after dinner.

It's amazing how quickly it adds up.

So I would say definitely pre-book a drinks package before you go.

Now, most travel agents that you talk to, I'd say talk to a good cruise specialist travel agent and they will advise you on the packages.

Like different cruise lines like Norwegian have a really good kind of all-in package where you get your Wi-Fi, a couple of speciality dining, drinks and shore excursion credits for like, I think it's about €279 for a seven-night cruise.

and Royal Caribbean tend to run offers throughout the year they don't tend to do the prices are a little bit more expensive on the drinks packages but maybe like even if you've booked your cruise you might find Black Friday they'll come out with a deal with 50% off drinks packages and things like that so keep in touch with your travel agent they'll advise you the best time or if if it's like best your best to book the package now or hang on and see what happens near the time but I would definitely pre-book as much as you can because it does get expensive on board if you haven't got a package.

So there are obviously much cheaper cruises than this.

This is, as I said, the newest ship, the largest cruise ship.

And I think from a family point of view, I kind of price next year.

And you'd be looking at flights, flights, Aer Lingus flights into Barcelona, transfers and a seven night cruise would be £18.99 for a family of four would be £5,895.

And that's going in June, the 6th of June next year.

Now, you will see prices like could be with MSC or Norwegian or, you know,

there's so many different princess cruises.

You could see cruise prices from like €1,000, €1,200, depending on the time of year you go.

If you go in the wintertime in the Met, they're even cheaper, but I don't know whether who wants to cruise the Met in the winter.

But, you know, so the prices I picked out there will be particularly expensive, but that's because it's probably one of the best, if not the best, family cruise ships out there.

And it's going peak time in June next year.

But talk to a cruise agent, I would say, one of the top
