We're looking at booking this, probably our 4th or 5th cruise to date - Departs/Returns from San Francisco. Here are some questions about our next planned cruise that I would like to get some feedback on.
Price
Current price for 10 days in obstructed view room $850+300 Taxes and Fees per person. Two questions:
1. Is this the best price available? I'm looking everywhere online and it's all +- $50
2. We might be taking people 4 total including us, not just us 2. I thought 2 small rooms would be more expensive but it looks like larger rooms for 4 people are more than twice as much. I think I'd prefer 2 separate rooms (there's no kids, all adults) but I'd like to hear other's experience.
Princess Plus
I can't decide if this will be worth it or not. Here's my breakdown of what I think it will be, please correct me if I'm wrong.
I will need the following regardless:
Internet access $15 per day
gratuities - I believe it's about $15 per day that I will have to pay
If I understand correctly, I would need to pay $30 for the above if I didn't do the Plus Package. It appears the package covers both of these so about $30 per day additional. I don't drink alcohol anymore and my wife will have one or two a day so the best value of the package is wasted on us but we would probably like specialty coffees and Juice Bar smoothies (3-4 per day, probably less). It seems like it might not matter and will work out about the same either way.
Other questions
I've been reviewing this forum and making notes of recommended bars, restaurants, viewing spots, shows, etc. and have a pretty good list. Is there one thing you would recommend to someone (on the ship or excursions)
Thanks in advance for your feedback
