smellycruzer Posted November 24, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) I for one would enjoy a Princess Black Friday sale, hosted at all U.S. Princess cruise terminals (Ft. Lauderdale, Houston, Galveston, San Pedro, Whittier, San Francisco, Seattle, Honolulu, NYC... did I miss any?). We would line up for deals like this: 1st person: free cruise, up to $1299 2nd-10th: $250 off future cruise booking 11th-50th: $100 onboard cruise credit 51st-100th: free beverage package 101st+: free photo I couldn't make it this year since I'm sailing tomorrow, but maybe in 2016!

Cruisin' into Retirement Posted November 25, 2015 #4 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I agree Princess needs to step up their Black Friday Game. I wouldn't mind waiting in line to get a good deal for Princess. Better than the table saw I got last year on Black Friday that I haven't used since. I would even get in line Thanksgiving at 5 pm if I had a shot at a free cruise!! :):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzsnooze Posted November 25, 2015 #7 Share Posted November 25, 2015 The special they started last night was a joke. Free soda package for 3rd and 4th person (children only) only in a stateroom. That eliminated all of us who sail 2 in a stateroom AND would anyone really be enticed to book a cruise if their kids were getting a soda package?

Just as a point of interest, Princess doesn't sail out of Galveston, Honolulu or Whittier, or at least they don't show those ports as active on the current (2015-2017) cruises on the website.

Tom You're right about Galveston and Honolulu. Anchorage = Whittier, which is a departure port. Out of curiousity, I searched the Princess website and found this: Departure Ports:The excitement starts here - at our Departure Ports - where you’ll actually begin and end your cruise vacation. Embark on your seagoing journey from one of our many port cities for a cruise of a lifetime. Where can we take you? Let your imagination take off first, on an exploration of our Departure Ports below. North America Anchorage (Whittier), Alaska Ft. Lauderdale, Florida Galveston, Texas Honolulu, Hawaii Houston, Texas Los Angeles (San Pedro), California New York City, New York Quebec City, Quebec San Francisco, California San Juan Puerto Rico Seattle, Washington Vancouver, British Columbia http://www.princess.com/learn/excursions/departure_ports/ I've never sailed out of Galveston before, but Houston on numerous occassions. I've sailed into Honolulu multiple times, but never as a departure port. I can't recall them sailing out of Honolulu but then again I've never searched for a trip from Hawaii. Has anyone sailed out of Honolulu in the past on Princess? Edited December 4, 2015 by smellycruzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone sailed out of Honolulu in the past on Princess? The Tahitian Princess used to routinely do a Tahiti to Honolulu route or vice versa along with a few other routes. Princess also used to use Galveston as a cruise port before Houston. Edited December 4, 2015 by Casey12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
