I also believe you can have guest services put a daily limit on your child’s medallion so they can buy a soda here or there but not buy that expensive coat they had their eye on
T is a package not a pick one from column A etc. we don’t use the desserts or gym classes. However we both have 8+ drinks a day, use WiFi and pay gratuities. Plus we will have a charcuterie plate or 2 and maybe pizza once in awhile. Plus package pays of for us big time and we can get all the espresso drinks and bottles of water we want. The package is not designed for everyone
Then it seems like you need a new CVP. We had a deposit down on a suite before our bounce back offer came due and yesterday our CVP applied it and the price dropped by over $7,000. The so called cruise consultants are not Princess CVP’s they are a third party vendor who also run the future cruise department on board ships
Per the state of Oregon website tips are not considered wages. The minimum wage varies by location in Oregon not by type of work. Rural areas have a lower minimum wage than urban areas. They range from just under $14 an hour to just under $16 an hour I believe.
I personally would not book premier as we only go to those restaurants a few times a cruise. Always on embarkation night which is guaranteed for full suites
That may work for a 7 day cruise but on our 14-21 day cruises the cost becomes prohibitive, we like our full suite balconies and benefits and can’t imagine eating at the Crown Grille 7+ times a cruise. We generally wait and see what the nights menu is and if it is one of the few we don’t care for we will talk to either the Sabatini’s breakfast manager or suite concierge to find us space in a SD. This has never failed us yet Princess knows how to treat their suite guests
So if the times disappear what is Princess going to do when they are advertising “unlimited specialty dining”. Are the going to open venues at 3 for dinner and keep them open to midnight ? I am betting if they don’t limit this package to “X” amount of passengers how much are the willing to refund to people they cannot accommodate ?
Like I have said before embarkation night is going to be an issue since all full suites get a complimentary speciality dinner that night and many people try and book those as well to avoid the first night dinner chaos We sail suites and do not pre book because the app doesn’t make it easy. We always call as soon as we board to the dine line. Never had an issue before but time will tell
