Trikes Aruba is a great way to see the Island and it's fun too😀.

Does the Plus package include bottled sparkling water?

yes. Perrier & San Pellegrino are included.

It does include bottled water, but only the 500ml bottles.

Definately too far to walk from the Pier. As Elaine5 said, it was quite a long bus ride to the Coach park.

If the high end spirit you want in the cocktail is included within the Premier price limit ($20), then there would be no upcharge for the cocktail even if it had 2 or more items within the limit.

If the supervisor doesn't do what you asked, try the CVP line. They have more authority to move your cabin around. It's actually part of their job to do that. (They did it for me with no fuss as part of a refare.)

 

I'm pretty sure it's gone. At least I haven't been able to find it.

It's still there when you do a new booking.

When I read the title I thought it was going to be something we could all take part in... sounded kinda fun!

 

Just ignore me...

Must be a British thing, I thought the same😁

You just need to book the couples pass for 1 person. This will cover both in the Cabin.

Do you remember what brand? I haven't seen draught beer on Princess for a long time but I much prefer draught if it's decent. I seem to recall that they had Heineken once but I hate that stuff.

Unfortunately, I think it was Heineken, but they also had Stella as far as I can recall.

Bottles or cans no draft beer I imagine the kegs would be an issue on board.

 

I have had Draught beer on both of my Sky Princess cruises.

I am so aggravated.  We board in under 4 weeks  Today our itinerary changed completely - We only have one port that we will still visit on the same day as the original booking.   All the excursions that were booked outside Princess will have to be cancelled, and are now not available to rebook.  And the one booked with Princess that has been sold out for months - who knows if it will still be available?  Worst part is, when that was booked, it was 200.00 cheaper than it would be now.  

If a Princess excursion has changed days, you should still be booked on it when it actually goes.

Haugesund is easy accessable as long as you don't mind a hike over the bridge, which is quite a steep slope to get to the Middle.

On Our Walking tour in September, we started with 30 people, but by the time we got over the bridge, we were down to 18.

ABPMSC22 still works. Type it in, don't copy an paste.

Doesn't show my Dec 2024 cruise when I log in. If I try adding the cruise with the booking number, it says that cruise is already added.

This restriction about using the package must be a Princess rule as when we sailed on Liberty of the Seas, we were able to use our drinks package straight after boarding.

They had the same rules about limited Alcohol only bought in Texas.

This looks to me like it is Princess trying to save money on the first day. If I was boarding at 11am, I would certainly drink more than $25 worth before we sailed.

Thanks David. CPS was recommended to me, but I'm unsure because I have a motabilty car, and it is only insured for me to drive. I'm not sure whether I would have to pay for repairs if it was damaged while someone else was driving it. 

All the CPS drivers are fully insured. They take pictures of your car before you leave it. There is an option on the booking site for Disabled parking.

AB Parking cannot be booked for a Princess cruise.

Do you know this from experience?   Because that is not what the offer says:  read #3.

 

 

Not had experience personally, just what I have read on here by other people.

Best Thing to do would be to cancel the drinks package before the upgrade, then if you don't get the upgrade, just purchase again as it will be the same price.

If you have booked the drinks package as part of your booking, there is no refund if you win the upgrade bid.

If you have purchased the drinks package as a seperate item, then it would be refunded if your bid is accepted.

I think it's a poor idea to base which cruise to book on the projected cost of a drink package.

When comparing the total price for a cruise, I always include the drinks package price to get the overall cost of the cruise. It would be much easier if they had a set price like Princess & MSC.

I compared my last cruise to Norway on Princess with the same 7 day cruise on Anthem. Without the drinks package , Anthem was cheaper, but when you added on Drinks package, Gratuities & Wifi, the Princess price came in around £500 cheaper with the Plus package for the 2 of us..

Hi All,

 

Virtuosa - Docked Abu Dhabi 23rd November - 27th November.

 

Has anybody done this cruise or should I say port stay, the ship is docked for the full four days and the cruise ship more like a hotel.  

 

Will we be able to come and ago at any time of day or night?

Are all bars and restaurants open/used?

My booking states Half Board not Full Board, how does this work?

Our boarding time is between 2 and 3 but we want to go to the Grand Prix track for the day, would we be able to drop off our bags early at the ship then check in later on in the day?

 

Thanks

 

For some reason, We received the information about this itinerary with or tickets for our september cruise.

 we are Aurea experience that is supposed the be Priority boarding. Doesn’t seem to be very priority to me.

Priority boarding does not mean Priority check in, you only get the priority when you are after check-in, but usually, the boarding has already started and you walk straight on after security.

You should be able to change it at the kiosks onboard.

This is what I had to do as the card I originally registered got hacked 2 weeks before my cruise. Luckily I got a new card just in time. 

doesn't really matter what the package included when you bought it, according to T&C they can change what is included right uo to your sailing.

Princess Cruises may modify, amend or update the terms and conditions of our beverage packages at any time with or without notice to guests. The terms and conditions as published on princess.com on the date of sailing will apply.

Still showing on UK website in Premier Package.
