I feel like the complaint about tax is slightly misleading. You are charged taxes on any drink purchased against your drink package while in port. You are only charged tax on that drink, not on the drink package and all cruise lines do that in accordance with US regulations - its not just Carnival. If you don't have a drink package and order a drink while in a US port you are still charged tax on that drink. Not trying to instigate, I just want to make sure anyone reading this understands the rules.

You spend hundreds of dollars on a cruise and you complain about a .49 cents charge. WOW!

Never buy a drink while the ship is in any port. Taxed.
