CocaColaCruiser Posted May 7, 2008 #1 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I received this preview today in an e-mail from Princess..... Booking opens May 22, 2008.

Toto2Kansas Posted May 7, 2008 #2 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Thanks for the list. Evidentally they are opening the bookings early for these as I booked the Pacific Princess for October 2009 just this evening. I detest having to book this far in advance, but if you want a certain cabin or location, there doesn't seem to be much other choice but to book as soon as they release the new dates. Heck, I am just glad we found another chance to return to Tahiti...........they had me worried for awhile, but I had faith in Princess to have something down in the islands, at least part of the year. So, don't wait until the announced date of May 22 if you are interested, check with your TA or Princess now as these bookings, or at least most of them have opened up. Again, appreciate you posting the list. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soraya Posted May 7, 2008 #3 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Hi, I have to move my 2009 Far East cruise to 2010. I am on the DP at the moment, but really fancy the Ocean Princess as its itinerary look sbetter for us. DP is open now but OP isn't available until autumn and no idea what the prices are going to be. Any advice on moving now or waiting - have to pay a $200 fee to Princess UK each time I moe or lose an $800 deposit if I cancel if the OP is really expensive.

paul929207 Posted May 7, 2008 #4 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I love the new choices. I am having trouble deciding between several of them. I guess my TA will be busy the next few weeks as we book several cruises for the next 2+ years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack1 Posted May 8, 2008 #5 Share Posted May 8, 2008 I was quite surprised at the prices for the Ocean Princess in Asia March 20, 2010. For 2 of us, air from YEG, transfers, hotel, fuel surcharge, BA balcony cabin is a few thousand less than we expected after checking prices of other lines and ships. Pleasant surprise. I realize we aren't comparing apples to apples but we have always had good cruises with Princess. I could only find the prices on line at a major on line site that ends with "to go". Check there for prices. Has it become almost impossible for UK travellers to book through a US/Canadian agent? I had heard things were getting tighter for these individuals who wanted to do that. Which sailing are u interested in. we are booked on the March 20, this is the first leg of a longer sailing. We can only do the 16 nighter.

Pam in CA Posted June 22, 2008 #9 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Help.. we are about to book the spring 2009 Princess cruise to Andes &South America.. 18 days on the Star Princess. Any advice .. This will be our first 18 day cruise. Suggestions .. is the tour to Machu Picchu worth while.. I have tons of questions. Opinions on booking air fare thru PC? Leaving from Chile? Thoughts on booking thru PC or using an agent..we have done both but for only 7 and 10 days.. any info is appreciated! tks in advance, jcIf one of your ports is Port Stanley, the Falklands, be sure to reserve your shore excursion very, very early. A ship the size of the Star Princess totally overwhelms the very limited resources of many of the ports on this itinerary, particularly in the Falklands. If you have a chance, definitely go to Iguasu Falls. I understand it's very much worth it. My friend and I were checking out the Princess cruises going to Antarctica last year and decided against the Star, particularly because it's such a big ship and the port resources are limited. Instead, we booked HAL's Amsterdam. Our TA is checking out independent tours to Igausu Falls. As for air, do your research. With air prices going up, cruiseline air is competitive, particularly with "open jaw" flights. We used Princess air for our Golden cruise from Buenos Aires to Santiago and the flight selection(s) for the price were better than what we could find on our own. We usually put the cruiseline air on our booking and when it comes time for final payment, have either booked our own air or go with the cruiseline.
