Disney Cruise Line Beverage Packages 2025

Disney Cruise Line (DCL) offers a magical vacation experience for families and individuals, with a wide variety of food and drink options available onboard. Unlike other major cruise lines that prominently feature drink packages, DCL’s beverage package information can be harder to find on their website. This may reflect Disney’s family-oriented focus, prioritizing the interests of younger guests. While alcoholic beverages are not heavily promoted, DCL offers a range of options, including wine, beer, and specialty drinks. Below is an updated guide to DCL’s beverage offerings and packages for 2025, including pricing and policies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the drinking age on a Disney Cruise ship?

The drinking age onboard is 21, and a valid photo I.D. is required. For round-trip cruises departing from European countries with lower drinking ages, parents or guardians may sign a Beverage Consent Form allowing 18- to 20-year-olds to consume alcoholic beverages in their presence. For round-trip cruises from Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland, and Brisbane, guests 18 and older may purchase and consume alcohol without parental consent. For repositioning cruises between Hawai’i and Australia, a Beverage Consent Form may be signed for 18- to 20-year-olds to consume alcohol in the presence of a parent or guardian.

Can guests bring alcoholic beverages onboard?

Guests 21 and older may bring a maximum of two unopened 750ml bottles of wine or champagne or six 12-ounce beers onboard at the start of the voyage and at each port of call. These must be packed in carry-on luggage (not checked). For round-trip cruises from Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland, and Brisbane, guests 18 and older may follow the same limits.

Guests consuming their own wine or champagne in dining rooms will incur a corking fee of $30 per bottle (2025 pricing). Alcohol in checked luggage will be removed without compensation. Partially used or opened bottles are prohibited. Excess alcohol beyond the allowed limit will be discarded without compensation. Alcohol purchased in ports will be stored until the end of the cruise, and unclaimed items will be discarded. Onboard alcohol may not be consumed in lounges or public areas.
