Always enjoy your posts so am looking forward to your impressions. You were lucky to be able to upsell to a Suite. Upsell Dept. is a great way to upgrade yourselves. The person that works in that dept. is very nice. How do we reach the Upsel Dept & is there a person to talk to? Thanks! Tom😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell me what types of plugs are available in your cabin--US and Euro 2 or 3 prong?--so that I can make sure I take the appropriate adapters with me? Thanks so much for posting about your cruise. Much appreciated. I was on the Majestic Princess in February & here’s the plugs in my balcony stateroom. I would pack an adapter so you could use the Euro plug. The USB plugs were at the bedside table. Here’s something from Amazon that would work with the one plug. Hope that this helps.

Definitely want to be rested for that, bright eyed and bushy tailed. Also, it was so foggy we thought we'd committed a party foul and he was taking us back home to Humboldt. The fog Horn was blowing every two minutes to let smaller vessels know "move over, or be moved!" So, the Winemakers Dinner: delightful!! It was formal night, and Tom turned out in beautiful togs as always. For those who say pictures or it didn't happen, here you go friends: my apologies, I agree dessert before I remembered pictures. Sorry, not sorry! 😀 I also went to the Winemakers dinner in February & asked for the dessert wine & they brought glasses & the wine for everyone. I also went to the Chefs dinner which was well worth the money. I didn’t realize until later that the folder that they gave us didn’t have a list of the food served but 2 copies of the wine & d’oeuvres served for our dinner & the same meal the next night. If any has a copy of the food served at the Chef’s dinner it will be much appreciated. Tom😀 Edited March 23, 2022 by trbarton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On our last cruise - November 2019 just before the shutdown - the pricing was still the same. I have no idea if it's the same these days but that is the most recent info I have and I would "guess" the prices are still the same as before.

I have already been looking at adapters so I can expand my plug capacity so your response is most timely.

Here is a pic I grabbed on Regal a few weeks ago. My understanding is the old 'card' is worthless, they now put it on your app and purchases are applied to the 15 specialty drink count. I bought one and got specialty drinks (lattes etc) for myself and my daughter. Seems they were out of vanilla coffee syrup on our cruise, you would think thats a staple in a coffee bar! (edit: seems I am not experienced adding photos, mine is the sideways one at the top!) Edited March 23, 2022 by Buckeye10640 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Princess Plus, (Premier Beverage package), there is a 15 drink count/limit for alcoholic beverages. But non-alcoholic drinks like coffees, sodas, lattes, etc are not limited, you can order as many as you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to differentiate between the coffee card which limits one to 15 specialty coffees and Princess plus which has a limit of 15 alcoholic drinks and no limit to specialty coffee drinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they still offer a coffee card, but it’s now a virtual card in the app or on your account? Princess doesn’t list that in the “drinks packages” info, so I wasn’t aware that was a thing anymore.🥴 Thanks for clarifying! Edit : I never read the details on the “New Grounds” coffee package. They do say that’s for a specific amount of drinks “numbers vary by itinerary”. I always assumed that package was for unlimited, like the premium and soft drinks packages. I learn something new every day! Edited March 23, 2022 by WAvoyager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arya3 Posted March 23, 2022 #194 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Really enjoying following this thread! All the info, photos, and humour are getting me excited for our April 16th cruise. Just a quick question about the price on the 7-day Enclave and is the price cheaper if you purchase before the cruise? Also, what are the prices for Chef’s Table and Winemaker’s Dinners? Many thanks! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you can make changes on board through CrewCall Chat or by dialing room service. Mini bottles of liquor can be exchanged for either the same size of a different type of liquor or beer on a one-to-one basis. You can also exchange the entire setup for: a bottle of wine, coffee cards, sodas only or waters only. We have swapped out for two "coffee cards" since they were discontinued and what it actually meant was that we each had 15 Specialty Coffees available on our Ocean Medallions. We didn't keep track of how many we used in a week-long cruise, so I can't tell you what might happen if you get to or go over your 15. HTH! Edit: As far as what's included, looking at Thrak's post #175, ordering from the two sections with Barista Coffee Fusions and Barista Specialty Mixes is what gets deducted from your 15 drinks package, but the drinks in the top box are available at no additional charge with the package.
