Rare stevenr597 Posted February 6 #1 Share Posted February 6 We are looking at Reserve Class, on the Sun Princess. We noticed that many rooms in this category are now limited to only two people. Those that can accomodate 3 or 4 are often connecting cabins. Does anybody have any idea as to why Princess designed Club Reserve this way.

I had wondered if Princess Marketing had finally corrected the issue. It's an issue with Deluxe Balconies on Royal Class, but I don't see an issue there for the Minis. Either book with a Princess agent (CVP) or an independent TA. Another option is to book with a phantom third passenger and then cancel them out after a short while. I have yet to read any reliable answer directly from Princess Marketing as to why this booking edit was implemented. I have considered it a bug, but no idea what the reason for it is. ETA: Which Sun voyage? I don't see a problem booking Reserve Mini there after a quick look at a random Caribbean voyage next year.

We were planning a Club Reserve Mini suite for three passengers. But the only M1 cabins that could accommodate (according to Princess) 3 people were connecting cabins which we, personally do not like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LACruiser88 Posted February 6 #5 Share Posted February 6 FWIW, the correct name for these cabins is "Reserve Collection" mini-suite. It was (and still is) confusing when Princess changed the name from "Club Class." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
