Great info Chris. I just took my first cruise last year on Carnival. Taking my wife on her first in September. We live close to Galveston, so I am looking to spread my wings and check out Princess since they added a Galveston departure.

if you pay the sail away fare you are going to have to pay the $16/day gratuities so in reality the Princess Plus pkg is really $44/day for all that other stuff

with drink package (non alcoholic one) based on the price i have to have like 10 per day to cover the costeven on port days. as i recall irish cofee used to cost about $10. im goin 4 two weeks so if i buy it once a day it woul be roughly $160 thasts twice cheaper if i go for package...
@Retiredtraveler1961 Жыл бұрын
The drink or premium package is not cost effective unless you are a very heavy drinker. Remember, deduct from your total costs cruise credit, in my case 130 each for my friend stand I with vacationstogo on a 16 nite cruise. Even including coffee drinks and soda, the average person will spend $30-40 per day.

I haven't been able to find an answer to this anywhere, perhaps someone here can chime in. Does the princess drink packages work with Ocean Now (the ordering service on the mobile device/stateroom tv)? Or do you get charged additionally if you order a drink through that? Thanks
@brendas4577 Жыл бұрын
we were on the Grand Princess June 22 and the drink package worked with Ocean Now and room service
@mariareyes-ku6194 4 ай бұрын
But now you also have a fee of $14.99 to activate the Ocean Now unless you have the Princess Plus or Premier package.

Carine, were you pleased with your decision to pay as you go, or did you find it would have been better to have purchased the Princess Plus drink package? Thanks.
@cyrene7784 Жыл бұрын
76.00 per day for drinks is ridiculous. It could never be worth it unless you planned to spend every moment inebriated. Especially on port days. I think they've made it so expensive so people will just pay for drinks. 😒

There is a difference if you are sailing through Feb 19th. The price limits are different.

Great info! Questions... We bought the Old Plus package back in last November, then they came out with the new Plus. If I want to pay the difference on embarkation day, can I use my on board credit to pay ? Another friend did not buy any package, can she use her on board credit to pay for gratuity and wifi and to purchase a couple of the specialty coffee ? Thanks!
@HighSeasCruising Жыл бұрын
We also had the old Plus package they just moved it to the new one automatically, and yes on board credit can be used for those things

The two you mentioned at the end, the all inclusive, are those charged 18% also? If they do, does they mean you’ll be paying an extra 18% on the crew appreciation gratuities, so $16 per day plus 18%? Thanks
@HighSeasCruising Жыл бұрын
They add the 18% to all drinks, and the $16 a day is separate
@kerusso3568 Жыл бұрын
@@HighSeasCruising ok, thanks. So the more drinks you drink during the day the higher the gratuities will be for that particular day? And is this also for the soft drinks and specialty coffees and smoothies?

The $16 gratuities are for your cabin steward, restaurant waiter and busboy plus any other staff that work on other compliemntary venues. It is not for drinks’ service, specialty dining or room service.

You only need to drink 7-8 drinks a day to break even. Pretty easy when you have nowhere else to go.

You have to think, it's including the other types of drinks, so if you're a specialty coffee drinker and juices etc in addition to alcohol, then it may be worth it.

No package will ever work for me because my wife does NOT drink alcohol. Obviously my kids will not drink (legally). Princess will charge full price regardless of those facts. I cannot drink enough to cover the difference (It would be a challenge that I *might* be willing to accept...but wife and kids will hate me for it). In the end, I will just buy the odd drink "on the go".

Princess has a great menu of non-alcoholic drinks (cocktails and beer)
