antsp Posted January 2, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I guess the title asks the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spearmint Posted January 2, 2017 #2 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I wouldn't. Last April, I, a Canadian, "cashed" a 5 pound note that I had had for years. I received, with apologies, a little over $7 for it, even though it was worth about $12 by then. So the "charges" were quite large. Whether this will apply to you, I don't know. But if you can pre-buy the US$, I suspect that you might get a better return. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antsp Posted January 2, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Sorry., my question was are cruises priced in £ as well as $ In order to sell cruises to UK passengers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downsmead Posted January 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) The answer is yes. The deposit is taken in GBP, and the balance is shown in pounds, much in the same way as booking direct with Princess online in the UK. The OBC is in $ though. We found that if you log into your account whilst on board, it automatically quotes UK prices which will give you an idea of the price. The printed cruise leaflets only show prices in $ generally (though vaguely think that one we were on which had sailed from Southampton, may have had prices in pounds). Talk to one of the future cruise consultants to actually book. Edited January 2, 2017 by downsmead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumduff68 Posted January 2, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 2, 2017 The cruises are priced in GBP££ for us living in the UK. Everything else will be charged in USD$$ - ie excursions/drinks etc. Sent from my HTC One M9 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
