One of the things I loved about the Song of Flower was that it was the one RSSC ship that was inclusive of all drinks. It made such a difference in the social atmosphere. As someone who often travels alone but likes the company of others, I liked that I could buddy up to any group, couple, etc., and not have any awkwardness about buying drinks. It really made the social flow much easier. In the end, I probably pay more in what it does to the fare than I would run up in a bar tab--that wasn't the point. The atmosphere is the point. I know there are some who don't like all inclusives because they don't like to subsidize others' drinking, but I don't drink soda, and I hardly feel like I'm subsidizing those who do.
