Final Payment UK?

[kruzgal]

I have my eye on a couple of Princess cruises in the mediterranean for this summer but at the moment the prices for a balcony are out of reach, especially when you add in flight costs. This would be our first Princess cruise (previously sailed Celebrity & Royal Caribbean) and I was wondering when final payment is for UK guests? I am hoping after this there may be some price drops that enable me to book! Thanks

Hi There

 

Around 70 days out from sailing,

keep checking there are plenty of balconies available on the cruises you are watching.

Thanks. Yes, I have been looking and there is still plenty of availability and I remember Princess offering some good deals last year. I am just hoping the same happens again for this year, but not sure how long to hold out before we give up and book a land based holiday instead. Decisions, decisions!

Check out the flight on your own. Princess don`t always give good times or routes.

Last year they wanted to fly us to Barcelona from Glasgow via Amsterdam and Paris. We took a direct Ryanair flight ourselves. Our return flight was from Venice and we went Jet2 to Edinburgh. It worked our a lot cheaper too.

We had a January 2nd payment date for an April 10th cruise. Which seems to be 97 days. I imagine they added a weeks leeway so that they had cleared the money in time to for a 90 day deadline. I was lead to believe 90 days was the final payment day.

Thanks...good advice everyone! Keeping my fingers crossed for a deal! :)

You could always do a med cruise from southampton then no air fares???
