FishTastic Posted May 10 #1 Share Posted May 10 Hi, I added on the princess premier package... mainly because I need to do some work while on board - its work a little or don't get to go.. So, I'll happily work a little. Anyways, with it comes 2 specialty dining. How do I book that? When I try to book dining reservation using the app, it tries to bill the CC that I have on file. Will it automatically take back off the charge? Or is there a special way to book using my package? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PacnGoNow Posted May 10 #2 Share Posted May 10 (edited) Welcome to CC and the Princess forum. It has, for some, shown a charge and then comes back as 0, or it doesn’t charge the card. However, the IT dept is changing the dining on the App and will be finished on June 17th. Now, this is supposed to be for the MDR and not SD Specialty dining. Also, if you’re referring to a July booking, it should not affect you. Because of updates, it could affect your booking it right now. So, if it does charge you on the credit card, once OB the GS can credit it as refundable OBC. Or, you could just call the dine line on your cabin phone and book the SD reservations that you want. That’s what we do. It does take a few days from when you add the package to reflect on the App. Try again. Or, use the website version of the App, cruise personalizer, dining.

Mark_K Posted May 10 #3 Share Posted May 10 Somewhere in the reservation process on the app, I clicked a button about premiere included. I didn’t charge my credit card at all when I made the reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memoak Posted May 10 #4 Share Posted May 10 Please explain what working during a cruise has to do with the premier package over the plus package ? The only reason I see for premier is the higher priced wines. Both have WiFi and tips included. The 2 specialty dinners are nice but not sure they are worth $20 per person per day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTNest93 Posted May 10 #5 Share Posted May 10 When I booked my specialty dinners with Premier, it showed the cost then the adjustment and -0- due before completing the transaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do longer cruises of 14-21 days so to pay an extra $20 per person per day would add quite a bit to our fare and we are fine with the drinks under the plus package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know. First time cruising with Princess. Guess I need to do more research Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

memoak Posted May 10 #11 Share Posted May 10 Plus program gets you up to 15 cocktails a day. If you are like us and drink Grey Goose vodka martinis and Woodford Bourbon Manhattans. Then plus gives you the alcohol you need 55 minutes ago, Mark_K said: What does it cost a person with no Princess status to upgrade from 1 to 4?

For someone crunching the numbers, and looking at a $20/pp/day difference, there’s a big difference between having to find $30/day of value in having two people on Premium and having to find $15/day.

Are you looking at WiFi by itself or as part of the plus package ? Also do not confuse the Princess value for actual charges. The length of cruise makes a difference. We cruise for up to 3 weeks at a time and premier vrs plus is $40 per day if we take premier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was speaking more generally, in assistance of the OP, not about me personally. But if the $24.99/day is accurate, that’s a hard number to start from when deciding whether to go back to Plus+upgraded Internet or to keep Premier.

I know we don’t pay that much for one person to upgrade just the WiFi when we both have plus osckages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDJ Posted May 10 #16 Share Posted May 10 I had this happen to me this year. I had to call Princess 3 times. Finally got the right person to make the change in their back end. A week later I was able to reserve specialty dining without it charging me. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
