Definition: The Full American Plan refers to hotel packages that include three meals daily (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Some Caribbean hotels offer such plans to guests, but a more common alternative is the All-Inclusive plan, which also typically includes alcoholic drinks and resort activities.

The dining packages offered by most Caribbean cruise lines can be considered the Full American Plan, since they include all meals but not alcoholic drinks.

Cruise lines typically offer inclusive meals in their main dining rooms but charge a premium or otherwise limit access to more upscale "specialty" restaurants onboard.
