rocklinmom Posted February 2, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Thank you so much for posting this! I just called and got our June Alaska cruise rebooked under this new Bonus Offer, and we saved over a thousand dollars! This new Bonus Offer (combined with the Twice as Nice sale that we were booked under) saves us $558 in gratuities for four of us and another $600 saved in the re-fare with today's rates. This offer is only good for the next two weeks so people should check and see if they qualify to get this great deal! Princess sure has some great promo's!

cruiseintoheaven Posted February 2, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Is this promoted on the Princess site? Not seeing it....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrak Posted February 2, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) I'm not seeing this on the Princess site. How is it listed? Of course I highly doubt it would apply to our June Alaska cruise. It's been sold out for quite some time. Note: Oh, it's a listing that's been added to the Twice as Nice. You just have to click on the banner to see it.

cruiseintoheaven Posted February 2, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Odd......still not seeing it! If anyone that already has the 2x nice promo is able to add this promo to their booking, please post. We have a balcony cabin for May 21....thanks [emoji4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocklinmom Posted February 2, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I just checked the two May 21st Alaska sailings that I can see (one is on the Crown and the other is on the Star) and neither one shows this Bonus Offer. You click on "View Offers" which is printed in blue underneath the cabin fares. So it appears that the May 21st Alaska cruises don't qualify for this Bonus Offer, just the Twice as Nice/Double OBC promo. Someone else mentioned a June Alaska cruise - I would check that one because ours is in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trystran72 Posted February 2, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 2, 2016 When I called for my July cruise on the Crown I gave them code NY2 - and initially she said it wasn't applicable for obstructed views but did some checking and it turns out that it did work. I checked my personalizer and the change is there and the gratuities are marked paid. win/win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that's a bummer, but at least I don't feel crazy anymore - I looked just about everywhere on the site and attempted to read the teeny tiny print for the 2x Nice promo to see if they stuck it in there somewhere.....so thanks for the reply and info, I can stop looking - at least for now.....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socmft Posted February 2, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 2, 2016 This is probably for new bookings only...? Probably can't get this if already booked and paid, do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socmft Posted February 2, 2016 #15 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I have no luck with this kind of thing...I obviously made the mistake of paying in full early(full payment was not due until 2/6) and am told by Princess that to refare this "promotion," I would be charged $800+ plus lose my airfare (even though flights would remain the same)...so another lesson learned. I just don't understand how it's the luck of the draw of who you talk to at Princess as to getting a break...or NOT! Just venting - sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first email was directed to my son. The second email had no name on it. When I called to take advantage of it for a new booking PC cruise I was not eligible.

kayred Posted February 2, 2016 #19 Share Posted February 2, 2016 No luck on our June 18th cruise (just the twice as nice sale - no free grats) but it was worth checking..Thanks for the heads up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayred Posted February 2, 2016 #20 Share Posted February 2, 2016 It is on the website now...It says "bonus offer on Alaska and Panama Cruises". I couldn't tell what dates till I called. Looks like July for the Crown from what I could tell on the phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villager13 Posted February 2, 2016 #21 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I called and tried to get the new promotion. We are doing a 7 day inside passage plus the land tour and they said no deal. Because we are doing the land tour they would not give us the cruise deal for our 7 day cruise! 😩 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tawill Posted February 2, 2016 #22 Share Posted February 2, 2016 :confused:We booked on Sunday for the Crown Princess Alaska sailing on May 28th. I called and was told this special did not apply to all Alaska cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishing on a star Posted February 3, 2016 #24 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) After figuring out how to pull up the 'select cruise sailings' on the Princess website, it appears to be inside passage cruises on the Ruby and Crown. Dates beginning in July, thru Sept. We called our TA, to try for our cruise on the Coral... No luck.

rocklinmom Posted February 3, 2016 #25 Share Posted February 3, 2016 It did apply to our June 10th Alaska cruise on the Grand. And it is definitely not for new bookings only. It appears to be for select Alaska cruises only, and for oceanview staterooms and above only. Worth checking for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
