Option to pre-purchase UBD gone?

[Paula_MacFan]

I logged into the Personalizer to pre-purchase the UBD for our upcoming cruise, but didn't see the option. I know they've re-tooled the website a bit lately (took away soda-only package, added bottled water package, etc.), so maybe this is just another change. I know you can't schedule the UBD in advance, but you could pre-purchase it.

 

Does anyone know if something has changed, or maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place? I looked under the food, special occasion, and romance sections, but didn't see it anywhere.....just the Ultimate Breakfast package.

I noticed the same a couple months ago however I found the Item # under Food and Dining/Specialty Restaurants. Item #3011. I called Princess directly and purchased it.

Go in to Cruise Personalizer and then select Onboard Reservations. You'll find Beverage Packages there. Click on Select and then you can get the All Inclusive Beverage Package there.

Open mouth insert foot. I answered the wrong question. Before our recent cruise I looked for UBD and only found what they now refer to as "Deluxe Balcony Breakfast for Two". You can find that under Onboard Reservations \ Culinary Delights. Sorry for my confusion... Cheers!

If you're referring to the Ultimate Balcony Dinner, I've called Princess and ordered/paid for it ahead of our cruises. But I couldn't set the date until I was onboard.

I've always called to book (and pay for) the UBD ahead of time. I never noticed it as an option in the cruise personalizer.

As others have mentioned, if you want to pre-pay either you or your TA need to call Princess ahead of time. We had to do this for our 12/10 Royal cruise. Also, as others have mentioned, you can't schedule the date and time until onboard.
