Canned Soda Package

[silversneakers]

On the website when you select the canned soda package it does say you can select which ones you would like but I don't see where it allows that option when ordering. Has anyone had any experience with this?

Maybe you are not aware, but you may carry, and even check, as much soda and other non-alcoholic beverage as you want. That is what we do at U.S. ports. We find the 7 ounce cans to be a handy size for on board. Less expensive and you get what you want.

When you purchase that package--or any other in-cabin amenity--through the cruise personalizer there will be a voucher in your cabin for the number of packages you pre-paid for, not the actual sodas. So no way to select in advance; you will call room service to redeem the vouchers and tell them which combination of flavors you want. Given the fact that you can simply purchase the package onboard at your leisure--and if you were expecting to drink them right after boarding the reality is that (1) waits for room service are interminable on embarkation day (unless you are in a full suite); and (2) they will not be delivered cold, there is no real incentive to pay in advance.

When you call room service to redeem your order, tell them what you want at that time.  😉

Yes tell room service what flavors you want then exchange for the voucher when they arrive at your cabin.

According to the cruise personalizer you get 6 cans for the price of 5.  That would be somewhat of an incentive to pre-purchase.

You can order this deal onboard as well......

But it does not allow you to pick the soda type when ordering.

Yes, you are correct. You redeem the voucher that is left in your cabin. You make your selections then.

How is that an incentive? 

The same "deal" is available onboard, same pricing.

The six-for-the-price-of-five sodas can be purchased by calling room service anytime during your cruise. So pre-paying offers no savings over buying the package as needed and charging to your shipboard account.

I’m sorry! I was not aware that the price was the same when purchased on board. I was assuming due to the wording you “get 6 for the price of 5” that it would cost more if purchased on board.

I just can't see paying that much for 6 cans of soda when I could simply bring my own onboard and have the soda I preferred. The selection on Princess ships is severely limited.
