Hard to retroactively prove, but if you've been tracking a particular sailing often you'll find despite the weekly/rotating "promotions" the bottom line remains very similar. price one out today and then check back in 6 days when they move on to the next LIMITED TIME PROMOTION
Use an aggregator travel site to track. VacationsToGo, CruiseWatch, CruisePlum, etc.

They usually only offer 70 or 80% OFF 2nd guest. But I'm sure they just jigger with the other pricing to make up for 100% OFF..
Cruise lines are like car salesmen, ICK!

Just a heads-up: 'Free' guests still pay port fees/taxes, and the 'Free' drinks/dining require prepaying 20% gratuities at checkout. Still a massive savings if you were already planning to buy those packages. Great for families since 3rd/4th guests are also free!

here is the ACTUAL question. "Mandatory gratuities"/per day are easily cancellable on board - as soon as they post to your on-board account - just for the asking at a 24-hour guest services desk. Are these 20% drink gratuities cancellable? Or are they NOT only BECAUSE you pre-pay them??

Great question. There's actually a key difference between the two:
  1. Daily Service Charges (Gratuities): These are the daily tips for the crew that post to your onboard account. You're right. You can technically ask to adjust these at the Guest Services desk.
  2. The 20% Beverage/Dining Gratuities: These are NOT cancellable. Because they are tied to the 'Free at Sea' promotion and paid upfront at checkout, they are considered part of the 'contract' for that specific package. If you choose to decline the 'Free Open Bar' to avoid the 20% fee, you simply don't get the perk.
Basically, the 20% is the 'service fee' for the unlimited package itself, whereas the daily charges are for the general ship service.
