Astro Flyer Posted March 16, 2019 #28 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Since they recently began to increase drink tips from 15% to 18% there have been posts about the temporary unavailability of some drink packages which eventually reappeared with the new 18% tip added. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that is all that it is. It seems like deja vu that last year in April it almost tripled in price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us it’s convenient to use in ports but onboard we only drink water from the ship’s supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they should be cruising their own ships to get some real life fleet experience. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us it’s convenient to use in ports but onboard we only drink water from the ship’s supply. Last week I had looked at purchasing water. I did notice the price was $6.90 (or $6.80) on the personalizer and more on the gift website. I find it odd it is missing from the personalizer. Hopefully it is just a tip increase. I only bring water off the ship with me. When on the ship, I am ok with the ship's water. It is the port intensive trips where I want the water packages. On a side note - I just went out and bought 6 cases of water (40 bottles for under $4.00 for Ice Mountain) as right now there are Black Hawk helicopters dropping 1.5 ton sandbags to protect our city's wells (water supply) due to flooding. I consider myself lucky as I am not flooded but within 40 miles all around me is. Edited March 16, 2019 by Coral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted March 16, 2019 #36 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I just hung up with Princess and ordered a case of water. The rep said he has had a few calls today ordering it and advising him that it's no available on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People can do all kinds of things themselves. Seems to me though that Princess should be selling the water as they’ve done in the past si that their guests don’t need to take care of it themselves.

I'll be very surprised if it turns out that Princess ISN'T selling a water package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ken the cruiser Posted March 17, 2019 #42 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Thanks OP for the heads-up. Luckily we booked a couple cases a few weeks ago for our UK cruise, but didn't think about our 2020 cruises. Who knew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 4cats4me Posted March 17, 2019 #43 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Glad we purchased ours last month. They better not triple the price again like last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmak8 Posted March 18, 2019 #49 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Is this correct as of now? Water bottles cannot be ordered online only by calling Princess? New price $7.08? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
