"I've been on over 50 cruises, and there are things and experiences I never pay for on ships. Drink packages aren't worth it for me since I don't typically drink enough on the cruise. Instead of buying lanyards, I just carry my room key in my phone case. I've taken over 50 cruises on nearly a dozen different lines over the past 15 or so years."

I've taken over 50 cruises on nearly a dozen different lines over the past 15 or so years. No matter what ship I'm on, some extras and experiences aren't worth the price. Here are the things I never buy on a cruise."
Extensive cruise experience shows certain onboard purchases provide poor value. Drink packages often cost more than paying per drink when consumption is moderate. Small accessories such as lanyards are unnecessary if the room key fits in a phone case. Many pay-per-use amenities and upgrades may not justify their price depending on individual preferences and trip length. Evaluating expected usage, available alternatives, and onboard policies helps identify which extras to skip to reduce overall cruise expenses.
