  1. we took B2B cruise in Dec 2021. It was 7 day and 4 day. Did not get offer after the 7 day, only at the end of the cruise. it was a good offer of balcony and $600 free play, but we already had 5 cruises booked for 2022 and did not use the offer
  2. you can also get lemonade (very strong and lemony) - my husband will get it with dinner in the MDR
  3. have you taken your cruise with Holland yet. Did you get any offers
  4. We were on the cruise prior to yours - to mexico. We lost live tv in Cabo.
  5. we are east part of Orange County - it has been raining for 12 hours on and off, but only 1"
  6. we currently have an offer for free inside cabin. I went to Princess website and picked a 3 day cruise and it was giving it to us for zero only have to pay port taxes.
  7. We have made the drive in a downpour before and I would not do it again. Stay off the roads if it is going to be as bad as they say.
  8. wifi for one device is $7.50 - don't need four devices, no soda, water delivered to room $.60 each bottle before the cruise, no mocktails, no juice bar, no desserts, no fitness classes, Oceannow, delivery of room service, no medallion delivered, no casual dining. I don't get any of this at home, don't need to blow my budget getting it on the ship - especially when it is overpriced and unwanted.
  9. I don't spend that much for a cruise so your logic doesn't work for me. If any of you have attended a sales pitch in Mexico at the resorts for time share - all of this math reminds me of those meetings. You can run the numbers and give all the reasons you want. Bottom line - run your own numbers and see what sticks.
  10. We just got off the Emerald for a 7 night cruise. We had no package. over the 7 days, $35 in charges from the international cafe for coffee $214 in charges for gratuities $105 paid in advance for internet for one - reimbursed $52.50 once on board $14 paid in advance for two cases of water delivered to cabin $315.50 We do not have drinks, food delivered to us. Emerald does not have Alfreds's/Gigi's and we don't eat at the places that cost extra. We do not carry our phones around with us - they are locked in the safe. If you are not a drinker, it does not make sense to get the package. Consider what you are going to be doing, where you are going to eat, how much you are going to drink and then do the math.
  11. few bucks ? $120 X 7 is $840 for two people for one week or $160 X 7 is $1,020 that is not a few bucks
  12. We got our certificate from Rincon Harrah's Casino. The certificate was for a free inside Holland America cruise up to 10 days in length,
  13. we got our email "sorry" two day before sailing, so it should be coming any minute
  14. Just off the Emerald - we were able to use the TV to order our room service - but order not correct when delivered. Our TV "live" channels were not available for two days, during our stay in La Paz, overnight to Cabo and during our stay in Cabo. Felt we were cut off from the world with no live news.
  15. Update. Had our final dinner tonight. One of the other diners shared that they had over 7,000 points and their come back and play offer was a free balcony and $600 free play between my husband and I we had over 8,000 points, but that doesn't increase our offer
  16. I did that on purpose. Everything is going to cost $$$ in the future
  17. this one is also on the port side and you can see it immediately as you get off the elevator. Nice to have a road sign back to the room
  18. on Emerald Princess and found this door decorated with this sign. Either they are bragging about their plus package, or they are warning us about their behavior to come. I got a drink package - 24 bottles of water for $14.00 yeah sorry if it is on it's side - must have had too much to drink.
  19. we were on a VIP cruise. We received, chocolates, strawberries dipped in chocolate, free dinner in the Italian restaurant with a bottle of wine (total value over $100), and final gift was a princess logo over the shoulder fanny pack and two coffee/water containers. Part of VIP is free drinks from the casino bar - we did not have a drink package, so any other drinks ordered from somewhere else we would be charged. Today is the final day of the cruise - we dock in L.A. tomorrow - we received our come back and play offer - my husband and I both received the same offer - free inside and $250 free play up to 15 days on select Alaska, California Coast, Canada & New England, Caribbean, Europe, Hawaii, Mexico, Panama Canal sailings only offer good through March 2, 2024, must book sailing within 45 days, new bookings only my husband had 4,035 points, and I had 4,178 points, During out time in the casino, we did not see many big winners. yesterday a woman hit a $3,500 jackpot but told my husband that she needed to hit 3 more to break even. The next best winner had $1,400+ the rest were a couple of hundred dollars. We are leaving with no winnings. offer not good enough for us to book a future cruise. We have a certificate from a land base casino and we are going to try HAL next.
  20. we have a certificate for a free inside, planning to upgrade to balcony. Will be interested to see how you like their (HAL) casino and what they offer you in the furture
  21. were on Princess on Wednesday they offered us a dinner in the specialty restaurant (Italian) normal cost is $35 per person. Last night we went to eat there - the food was good, but I would not pay for it myself. They also said the dinner came with a bottle of wine. This was part of the VIP treatment.
