socmft Posted October 29, 2015 Author #26 Share Posted October 29, 2015 On Holland America you can call room service and order a full sized bottle, not the mini sized package at a horrid price. It will delivered to your cabin very quickly. The price is higher than the take home duty free price, but cheaper than ashore. Why can Princess not offer the same service, it would prevent the sneaking aboard that so many try? This is exactly what we did on a recent HAL cruise. Was nice to have that option.

CoffeHound Posted October 29, 2015 #28 Share Posted October 29, 2015 There are 12 brands of spirits available for room service bottles, and I suspect that's why Princess sells these brands for less than half of what other cruise lines charge. If you want to have every high-end brand, or even to double or triple the offerings, you're no longer going to get the great price. I'm perfectly happy with Jim Beam. If you feel that 12-year-old Glenlivet is important, then you can buy it at the bar. I'd rather sit on my balcony with Jim Beam than sit in an inside room with Glenlivet. Jim If only pants weren't required for the journey, it wouldn't be so bad. Maybe next time I'll choose my cabin based on proximity to a bar and no one will notice:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
