It looks like a press release, since it says this, "SANTA CLARITA, Calif., Nov. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ ." But it's not (yet?) on their website in the News Center.
Edit: found it on Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/PrincessCruises
I'm a California resident, and I'm not seeing those prices in either my own account or hubby's. Maybe these prices are incentives for people who haven't cruised lately?
We were on the Ruby last Halloween, and I can't honestly remember there being anything Halloween-specific. There might have been some banners or such in the piazza, but that's about it.
Interesting to see two different flavors of cruise for the total eclipse of the sun on 4/8/24. We're booked on the Discovery Princess for that, and I've been wondering when/if the other lines would offer one.
I'm with you on that. I priced out the HAL sailing and, for a cabin most comparable to what we have booked on the Discovery, it was waaaaaayyy more. I don't care about having more days on the HAL sailing, it's just not attractive to me.
As noted above, it does get added to your account. Your medallion gets read when you ask for coffee or tea. The coffee package doesn't "live" in your medallion; it's in your onboard account. So, if you order from your cabin the coffee package is still applied. Your account must get updated each time you get coffee or tea, with a running total. But we've never been told we've run out or have been charged for any of these items.
