We are looking at booking for July 23. Our family would be in a mini suite, it’s me , my wife and girls 17 & 15.
would I have to pay the princess plus for all 4 of us ? That would be another £830.
me and my wife would drink at least 8 drinks a day plus a coffee. My girls only drink water.
It is possible to pay the Princess Plus fare for the first 2 pax and not 3rd and 4th but you might need to phone your TA to do this. We have recently booked a mini suite for a cruise in May and I had the same concerns - our children are only 4 and 2 and wouldn't benefit at all from the soft drink/coffee package. I called our TA and they were able to book us all on the normal fare and manually added the Princess Plus package for myself and husband.
You would of course need to pay their gratuities separately as they won't be covered but still works out much better for us.
I believe the general rule is that the first two pax in the cabin would both need to have the same package (so not possible for just 1 to have PP fare) but 3rd and 4th is optional. I tried numerous TA websites but couldn't find an option online to select PP just for us hence why I called them.
