Tiggipaws Posted July 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Good morning On the app on my mobile phone it states drinks up to $12. On the website it says Plus Beverage Package - 50 which I think is $15 per drink. Which one is correct? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjpj Posted July 24, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2023 $12 limit was the old package that was updated to $15. If you purchased your plus at the the older rate (that cost less), your drink limit will be $12. You can pay the difference for any thing over the limit.

ktcishot Posted July 24, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I was trying to find information on the price difference between the old plus plan and the new plus plan. Does anyone know what it is per day? I couldn't seem to upgrade on the website. Just wondering if it's worth it for better drinks and the hotly debated ice cream sundaes 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to have to correct you, but good news for the OP because the drink price limit is $15. PS - The App is notoriously bad at times and their IT has not caught up to the task, or PCL decided to continue to show what was purchased. Policy beats whatever the App says. Bar prices increased, so guests are getting approximately what they did before at the old bar prices. Edited July 24, 2023 by Steelers36 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone with Plus, regardless of when purchased, has the $15 drink price cap.. $80usd per night for new Premier 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsdorado Posted July 24, 2023 #9 Share Posted July 24, 2023 I also purchased the "Old" Princess Plus before the price went up. Interestingly enough, when I look online in the Cruise Planner and in the app, I have TWO entries for Princess Plus, one with the old benefits and one with all of the new benefits (including the $15/drink and the premium desserts). I just had to scroll down in the Packages screen in the app. Frederick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why you don't believe the many posters who have sailed with the lower priced package and received the up to $15/drink inclusion. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktcishot Posted July 24, 2023 #16 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Hmmm ok so I guess I'll just have to wait and see 🤷♀️🤷♀️ my cruise leaves in 10 days. It's probably most cost effective for me to just pay the difference in drink costs. I'll have to do some menu research 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some cases people with the old package are limited to what they bought at the time, and other cases it doesn't matter. I had the old package, called my Princess rep to get the new package and she quoted me a price that was lower than what I originally paid for the old package, so I was happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a community of experts here who will get you the correct info. Sure, the odd post may be outdated or whatever, but once you see a few of us chime in, you can take it as gospel pretty much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrak Posted July 24, 2023 #21 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) IGNORE the outdated and idiotic info in the app. The Princess web site clearly states up to $15 for most cruises and up to $22 for Australian cruises (because they are in AUD rather than USD). This comes up over and over and over and over. If I can find the info on the Princess web site others "should" be able to do so as well. If just looking here on CC there must be a bazillion (okay, exaggeration here) posts clarifying this point.
