Colo Cruiser Posted March 29, 2014 #176 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Does Princess have non-alcoholic packages too, similar to Celebrity's? One member of our group doesn't drink as much as the rest of us :p Does anyone know where this info is at on their website - looked but couldn't find it. What kind of drinks do they want? Soda? Mocktails? Milkshakes? Yes Princess has those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sosher Posted March 30, 2014 #178 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Thanks for the info. You only get so many drinks a day right? If that's true, what's the difference if one person drinks them or if 4 people drink them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likeadisguise Posted March 30, 2014 #179 Share Posted March 30, 2014 There's no daily limit, though I'd imagine they cut you off if hey observe a certain level of intoxication. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99florida Posted March 30, 2014 #180 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Thanks for the information! We will give this some thought for our upcoming cruise. Where can I find the information for the all you can drink alcohol package? Is there a limit as to how many drinks per day? When hanging by the pool it would be nice not to have to worry about that.

No limit, I don't think you can outdrink the package. :eek: Edited March 30, 2014 by Colo Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpcountryTravelers Posted March 30, 2014 #182 Share Posted March 30, 2014 No limit, I don't think you can outdrink the package. :eek: It would be quite difficult!! :p But I'm sure some can do it. I can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99florida Posted March 30, 2014 #183 Share Posted March 30, 2014 No limit, I don't think you can outdrink the package. :eek: Correct, I definitely will not but it's nice to know that I don't have to count or pay attention if I were to have one more than the limit (if they had one). One less thing to think about :) Is one able to prepay before the cruise and if so where on their website can I locate that information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtre Posted March 30, 2014 #185 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I have read that there is freshly sqeeze orange juice in the buffet or the dining room for an extra cost. Is it thrue? If so, is it free with the new package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LewesBeach Posted March 31, 2014 #189 Share Posted March 31, 2014 From a previous post: ackage Details: Princess Cruises' package costs $49 per day, plus a 15 percent gratuity per person, and includes all cocktails, spirits, beer and glasses of wine less than $10. Also, all nonalcoholic drinks served in cans or bottles, as well as mocktails and shakes are included, as are all coffee, tea, espresso and specialty drinks and any food items such as crepes and gelato included with the coffee card. Each purchaser of the package also receives a 40 percent discount on all bottled wine less than $100. Fine Print: Princess cruisers may purchase the package on seven-night or longer cruises. All passengers traveling in the same stateroom do not have to purchase the package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff4AU Posted March 31, 2014 #193 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Folks... in includes EVERYTHING except the super pricey alcohol (Johnny walker BLUE, for example) and drinks that would be over $10... We were on the Ruby (4 day) last week... EVERYTHING means everything.. You can take that word literally. Juices... all the coffees... the giant bottles of water.... EVERYTHING ($10 and under).... Please don't make it more difficult than it is. We all know it's new. The great thing about this package is it's simplicity. RCCL's has multi-layers. NCL's has a ton of everyday drinks that are excluded.... Last week each had many different martinis and DOTDs (Drink of the Day) and various wines (by the glass) and everything was covered. You can find some liquors and wines over the $10, but nearly everything was under the $10. We'll be on the CB when she comes out of drydock and we'll get the package again without a second thought. The package follows the KISS principle, and it's great. Edited March 31, 2014 by SheepdogGriff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Av8tor Posted April 1, 2014 #194 Share Posted April 1, 2014 My brother just got off the Ruby on B2B cruises. When he inquired about the package, he was told that ALL passengers in the cabin had to buy the package. Seems that not all employees have gotten the word...

Every ship seems to do/interpret things their own way. This has been an issue with programs for as long as I can remember. Pretty bad if you ask me. :rolleyes: Edited April 1, 2014 by Colo Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just got off the Ruby (5-day cruise) also and can tell you that many people on embarkation day were buying the package at Outriggers (not us) and were not required to have both in the cabin buy the package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting as he and I may have been on at the same time, or he got on as I got off. That's definitely not what I heard when we purchased the packages. I'm thinking the staff isn't "selling it" the same, or are taking liberties... or Princess is seeing that it's being abused (one person ordering a drink, back to back, to get around buying 2 packages). Either way, it's new and things are going to have to be tweaked until Princess is satisfied with the way it's performing. At least they haven't felt the need to have a "15 drink per day cap" that I read Carnival does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
