Yes Starbucks is not included but all other coffees are. Some specailty coffees actually use Starbucks coffee but do not sell it under brand name or Starbucks type drinks. Not sure why you would think it would be included.

‘For the person that wants it all, the deluxe beverage package includes virtually unlimited combinations of beverages on their Royal Caribbean cruise. It includes Cocktails / Spirits / Liqueurs / Beer Bottled still and sparkling water Wines by the glass Fresh squeezed juices Non-alcoholic cocktails Premium coffees and teas Fountain sodas Coca-Cola® souvenir cup and Coca-Cola Freestyle® beverages Milkshakes at Johnny Rockets’ It states there that premium coffees are included. It never stated that Starbucks was included if this is what you mean, so not sure why you would assume it was?

I’ve never gotten the deluxe package, because we don’t drink alcohol, but’s it’s always been included on the refreshment package. Starbucks is never included in any drink packages. Also if you paid $80 a day you way over paid. I always get emails with sales for $68 a day for the deluxe package. Even if you purchase it for a higher price, keep watching and the closer it gets to your cruise the more it will drop. Just cancel the more expensive one and purchase it for the lower cost. They will reimburse you for what you paid for the first one. The refreshment package is usually $28 per day, but got it on sale for $19 a day last night.

Always had coffee included in delux drinks package. Although Starbucks is not included m, so when we are on a ship with Starbucks kiosk we have to go and get specialty coffees from cafe promenade etc. Also always got a cappuccino on package in MDR and some windjammer.

I am so sorry that you could not have your specialty coffee included,I understand this as I look forward to the specialty coffee especially on the evening after dinner and the shows, when just lounging around with family and friends!

I am so bummed about us not being able to visit CoCo Cay and chill in the floating cabanas. The food was okay, the vibe was a little dry and boring. I kind of expected a little more out of this trip. I need a do over.
