☆ How my family of 4 spent $10,000 on a Caribbean cruise — and what we'll cut next time even though we had a blast
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-20 | by ( Jill Robbins | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Read previewMy family of four – my husband, two teens, and myself – sailed on the Disney Fantasy this spring. Perhaps surprisingly, this is on par with the higher end of what a family can expect to spend on a seven-night Caribbean cruise: about $270 to $2,600 a person. I don't regret our WiFi or bingo budgetsWe bought an intermediate WiFi package for $490 and spent $152 on bingo. We don't usually spend money on WiFi while cruising, but decided to get a package since this was a longer sailing. We usually play at least one round of bingo and usually don't win much, but my kids enjoy it, and it's something we do as a family.

Things like Broadway-style shows, multicourse meals, buffets, pool access, and onboard activities are built into the price of a typical sailing. I'm also willing to pay a little more to select a cabin far away from elevators and loud entertainment venues.

Xreal, an augmented reality glasses maker, has launched a connected Beam Pro mobile device that allows users to capture spatial video and 3D images. Xreal said the Beam Pro uses Nvidia CloudXR technology for image rendering and Qualcomm 's Snapdragon spatial computing platform. A pair of Xreal AR glasses costs around $200 to $400, depending on the model and sales promotion. That means a set of Xreal AR glasses and Beam Pro costs significantly less than $1,000.
