Water no longer available for pre-purchase!!

[Sparkklie]

I have an Alaskan cruise in September that I already pre-purchased the water for, I just check on the Princess website and the option is still there. I checked my Caribbean cruise for next March and it's also an option. Maybe it was only taking off certain sailings.

The replacement package is buy one at regular price and get a second one for the regular price.

I just bought one for $6.90.

Good one, Bill!

 

Seriously, I wish they would bring some sort of happy hour deal back!

Princess seems to be working hard on disappointing their customers these days. I'm onboard, and rethinking my future cruising with them.

I currently have 3 cruises booked with Princess and I really don't want to switch lines, and I talk them up to my friends all the time...but this kind of stuff is getting tiring. It kinda shows a lack of consideration for their loyal cruises. :confused::(

It's still there...it's been there....they just inflated the price x4 for a little bit until the backlash happened! ;p

Just bought mine for June at the old price. Bad business decision to make such a big leap. Expect marketing to go to maybe $12 for a while and then gradually increase .

Wow I sold The Brooklyn Bridge three times to the same guy :o He was from Brooklyn too.

What a coincidence his name was Chuck also...:):):)

Was just able to purchase for the old price for Oct. cruise

I’m glad Princess heard the complaints and either fixed the error or changed their mind. Either way, it’s a good thing.

[loge23]

Oh no! What happened?

Not all bad news, really, but it's the little things that cause the annoyance. Overall, it's a good cruise, but the entire Marketing Dept should be put on a small boat and towed behind one of the ships for awhile until they understand customer service.

The crew and staff are very good (95%) - none of my piccadillys are on them. Full report when I get home 5-14.

Oh good! I agree...the crew and staff usuallly have great attitudes and are so hard working.

 

The tow boat idea for the marketing department sounds like a good idea.

 

Look forward to reading your full report when you get back.

Hello, I just check our booking for Norway in June of 2019. I can still get a case of water for $6.90. We used out FCC during our March2018 cruise to reserve this booking and have not made any other payments. We will watch to see what happens.

I was able to use OBC to pre book excursions, but not water/soda packages-I had to prepay with my credit card.

Are others paying for water with OBC?

No. The only thing I've been able to use OBC for online is Shore Excursions.

I couldn't either. Only excursions. I was hoping I could buy in advance the drink package and water with OBC.

I just purchased bottled water package for upcoming Sapphire x 2 and Royal. No problems, paid with credit card.:') $8.97 a package, that would be in AUD.

I purchased for all three of my upcoming cruises at the $6.90 price.

I purchased for all three of my upcoming cruises at the $6.90 price.

I was in my Cruise Personalizer today & found that water is no longer an option for purchase (12 bottles for $6.90 - which used to be available only for pre-cruise purchase). I thought it might be a web glitch, so I called Princess. They have taken it off the choices and are "working on a new package" to take its place.

 

I was told "you can bring water onboard" but that doesn't work too well when flying to a port with no access for making that purchase prior to boarding. Also, this was such a nice & easy option (and not overly expensive).

 

I let her know I was not a happy camper! :mad:

 

Just thought I'd share that with everyone.

 

 

Its still available for our cruise? We are leaving out of San Francisco for a 10 day Alaskan cruise.

Log into the website and select your booking. Click on Onboard Reservations at the top and then view Beverage Package options. The Bottled Water Package will be at the bottom of the list of options.

I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread since the Water is once again available for pre-purchase and actually back to it's original price which is a great thing!
