Mein Schiff drinks & inclusions
Mein Schiff markets a strong all-inclusive character: many drinks and services are already in the cruise fare. It still pays to check exceptions – premium bottles, specialties and optional upgrades.
As of: August 2026 (editorial overview).
What is typically included?
In TUI Cruises’ Premium All Inclusive concept, full board and a broad drinks range are usual: soft drinks, juices, hot drinks, beer, wine and selected cocktails – depending on the concrete fare and booking confirmation.
Compared with AIDA (where packages are often chosen separately), Mein Schiff feels more predictable for many guests: less bar top-ups, clearer cruise fare.
- Fare name and booking documents are binding – not marketing copy alone
- Specialty restaurants and premium bottles can have surcharges
- Kids’ drinks and age limits vary by fare – check them
Where do costs remain open?
Top spirits, selected wines by the bottle, spa treatments, shore excursions and some specialties are usually outside the inclusion package.
Guests who drink little alcohol still often save versus pure full-board brands – because soft drinks and coffee are already priced in.
Trip-planning tip
Before booking: compare inclusions of the chosen fare (e.g. PUR/PLUS or successors) in the booking path. Onboard: check the bar card and app before buying upgrades.
Frequently asked questions
Is Mein Schiff really all inclusive?
Strongly yes – in the premium segment many drinks and meals are included. Absolute “everything included” with no exceptions is rare; premium bottles and extra services often stay chargeable.
Mein Schiff or AIDA – where are drinks cheaper?
At AIDA, FUN/ALL IN packages decide bar costs. At Mein Schiff more is already in the cruise fare – often easier to calculate for heavier drinkers. The total trip price decides.
