Crystal makes move to all-inclusive
Crystal Cruises has begun its transition to an "all-quality all-inclusive" following a year of planning.
From this week, guests on Crystal cruises will enjoy complimentary fine wines and premium spirits on board, as well as open bar service in all lounges and pre-paid gratuities for all housekeeping, butler, bar and dining staff.
Inclusive spirits feature brands such as Grey Goose, Maker’s Mark, Macallan Select, Hennessy V.S.O.P. and Herradura Silver.
An optional Connoisseur menu will feature award-winning, renowned and/or rare vintages, select single malt whiskeys and other aged spirits at "reasonable in-store prices", as opposed to traditional upscale restaurant and hotel rates.
