I’ve been on the inspiration and imagination many times both 3 and 4 day cruises and have never really seen a difference on either one. Yes you will see some people who have drank too much but I don’t think it’s any more or less then any other cruise. Both the 3 and 4 day cruises are great and for the price you pay... it’s the most bang for your buck. At least I think so.

My experience is different than the OP’s. The weekend (Friday-Monday) cruise is the “booze cruise” but the Mon-Fri cruise is a regular cruise with families, etc. We were just on the Inspiration and we enjoyed the food and didn’t see drunks. There was drinking, of course, but no more than a 7 day cruise and I didn’t see anyone drunk.

I love the Inspiration. The staff were all great. I just sailed last week. 4 days, 3rd time on this ship. All the food I ate was very good. No problems. I ate in main dining room. I did not see that everyone was drunk. I do like 5 star food and indulge in it. I really enjoyed the productions. The piano bar was a blast. FYI Inspiration goes into dry dock in November for 2 weeks.
