5,000+ Club (4/15)

  1. I noticed an option to click if you have the Premier package when making a reservation. Looked like something new to me.
  2. And how many specialty and casual restaurants you use. Maybe you will lucky and win a price as well.
  3. Have you completed the 14 day cruise that you are referencing? If yes, did you have one of the packages? Thanks
  4. Does the old Plus package mean that you paid $50 a day per person instead of the current $60 a day per person?
  5. Must be a different reason. I have a B2B booked and it shows as on cruise on the APP and I received the offer to bid for both legs of our B2B.
  6. The change was certainly directed towards increased cash flow and profits. As you know the cruise industry did not receive any bail out funds and are carrying a lot of debt. I do not think that describing the increase as a “money grab” is a fair characterization. I have seen massive price increases in most if not all of the items that I purchase. Even Mc Donald’s. Compared to their competitors, $60 a day is still very competitive. The prize money at $10 a day gives everyone an opportunity to get some of the money back. As you say several of the items do not add much value for many of us, but it is still good that the items are available. Competitors have added room service charges which seem fair to me.
  7. Why don’t you just cancel the reservation and get your refund now? I am sure they can do it on the ship, but why wait?
  8. Are you paying a 100% supplement because you are solo? Did you book the Premier rate? Do you have to pay double? I know it seems like a stupid question.
  9. I have received several different emails and held off booking the 360. The last one said that I could call and I did. Unfortunately I had to call three different days until I could get a Rep who knew how to book it. I did not pay and my cruises are 4/6 and 4/13. I was able to get the time and day that I wanted. Did you book your cruise prior to December 1? If yes, fortunately your Costco agent is wrong. All my e mails started with since you booked by December 1, you are invited to the 360 experience. Also the Experience shows on my print summary with all my other benefits. I am booked with a TA and they were not involved at all. Everything was directly from Princess.
  10. Is your 17 day also available to book in segments? If yes, the Specialty dining might be two restaurants per segment.
  11. I have a seven day cruise with the Premier that says Speciality Dining 2 nights-quantity 1-$58.80 for each of us. I assumed the Specialities were $29.40 per visit per person. the $117.60 is exactly twice of the dollar amount shown. Obviously I cannot say for certain. I did not even notice until I chickened out and cancelled the 14 day cruise and booked a B2B. Did you book prior to December 1. I guess we will know for sure next January 2026.
  12. I know that everyone does not agree, but it has been my experience that a 14 day cruise that is bookable as two 7 day segments will receive the Premier benefits, suite benefits, and Elite benefits (if applicable) as if it was two seven day cruises. i suggest you log into your account on Princess.com, click on luggage tags/travel summary. Click on travel summary and scroll down to the bottom to see what is included with your booking. You can also print it. Look at the $ value for the speciality restaurants. This does not include the first night free speciality for the suite. If you booked prior to December 1 it will show two 360 experiences.
