A better disembarkation lounge with drinks and small snacks.

My favorite platinum perk is the free internet minutes. The amount depends on the length of your cruise. Our last cruise was 27 days so we each got 500 minutes. Since my husband doesn't care a thing about them I got his minutes which gave me 1000 minutes! It allowed me to stay in touch with our daughter & my sisters through Facebook messenger.

On the Princess web site if you care to look for the information.

Love having the free wifi! Don't care so much about the rest....

Don't knock having a nicer place to wait for disembarkation. Sitting at a table with a glass of whatever and a small nosh beats being stuck in the Casino or sitting along the wall outside of Explorer's. It's so much nicer to wait comfortably when the time draws near.

That being "better" depends on the number of platinum/elite/suite passengers on the cruise. When over half the ship has that status, a better place to wait is anywhere but the special lounge.

Right. I have never been able to find a seat for us in the Platinum Lounge for disembarking.

private Platinum / Elite cocktails each day Nice perk

But you do have to pay for them.

Thanks everyone, I especially like the free drinks.

Except if you are on a transfer at disembarkation you have to go to the meeting place for that transfer, so can't sit in the platinum lounge!!!

Like the atlas to look at deck plans on paper.

Priority Check in has been nice. Saved a bit of time.

Disembarcation is nightmare not matter what, the lounge helps a bit.

Platinum party is nice, don't do it each night but once or twice, nice.

Like to upgrade to the Platinum Insurance but that is included at the previous level.

Of course the internet minutes are the big money saver.

Enjoy!

The drinks have become rather weird to say the least. Wish they would go back to more common cocktails.
