CruisinEars Posted January 27, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but I am still seeing the old pricing quoted in posts. Princess has lowered the price of the unlimited soda package. As of Dec, the new soda card pricing is as follows: 13 days or less= $3.95/day plus 15% grat (rootbeer not included) 14+ days= $3.50/day plus 15% grat (rootbeer not incl) Coffee card is still at $24+15% for 15 punches and UKP is at $9/day + 15% *before anyone questions my knowledge, I am a Princess Res agent and this is posted in our internal notes.

Interesting that not only have they lowered the per diem, but also made the charges for a longer cruise lower too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toto2Kansas Posted January 27, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thanks for the info, no I had not heard of this changing. Anytime the price is lowered for anything though, I am all for it. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astro Flyer Posted January 27, 2011 #5 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thanks for the update on these unlimited programs...we 'try' to save our calories for food & 'try' to limit the calories from drinks particularly if we were to get UKP to be tempted even more. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tralynn Posted January 27, 2011 #7 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Yay! That's great to hear.....Now, I hope that they bring back the 2 for 1 coffee card coupons.....Please, Princess, Please! (Or at least offer a brewed only coffee card at a lower price. It could be good for just 1 cruise.....Please.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayevee44 Posted January 27, 2011 #8 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Apparently, not everyone got the word on the new pricing. On our Jan 15 cruise on the Sapphire Princess, we were charged $4.25 per day plus 15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phabric Posted January 27, 2011 #9 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thanks for new prices. Wish the Utimate card was reduced alittle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted January 27, 2011 #10 Share Posted January 27, 2011 We have paid $4.25 per day for our B2B2B 10 night cruises on the Emerald, most recently today. Do you have something on the Internet you can refer me to? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HJH Posted January 27, 2011 #13 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Just returned from South America/Antarctic Peninsula on the Star. Boarded on January 9 and it was still $4.25/day +15%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loonbeam Posted January 28, 2011 #16 Share Posted January 28, 2011 More likely the note was sent out in Dec, but there was an effective date several months later that wasn't noticed. Usually changes like this have a 3-6 month lag time to allow for everything from communication to updating the accounting systems. Perhaps the "internal notes" stayed internal and the message was sent in a bottle ! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Or at least offer a brewed only coffee card at a lower price. It could be good for just 1 cruise.....Please.) Be careful what you wish for. Even at the lower prices, the soda card for a 7 day cruise costs about $31.80 while a coffee card costs $27.60 :eek: I suggest to leave it as it is as you get unlimited coffee as long a one punch remains. Whats wrong with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coracii Posted January 28, 2011 #20 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Thank you for the information, I just hope it finds it's way to the fleet. It made it's way to the Diamond, we just got off the Jan 15th through Jan 27th sailing and the reduced rate for the soda card was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
