Can I buy liquor online before my cruise?

[ExCruiseMe]

I have looked and looked on the Princess website and can't find where I can order Bon Voyage Gifts anywhere. Can I? If so, where do I go to do that? Thanks

[chrysalis]

yes, it is on the Princess website, but only small bottles 375ml.

I did this on the Princess.com website for our Carribean cruise on the CB and expected it to appear on my CC in dollars. However, I was concerned to discover the request is passed to Princess UK to be processed and the exchange rate is VERY POOR.

I wouldn't do it again rather I would order a bottle from room service and charge it to my ship board account.

 

Just another example of how UK cruisers get the s***** end of the stick! and how Princess are determined to keep the US and UK operations separate.

Is it true that when you board and into your room that you can order booze thru room service? Does this include a 345ml bottle or something larger?

There has been a lot of discussion about this. It seems that Princess has changed the pre-orders to exclude liters and now only offers the 375 ml with mixer package for $17. It appears they may also be eliminating the ability to order a liter from room service or purchase it from the lobby bar on board the ship. If this is true Princess is making a big mistake as it will only encourage more smuggling of liquor.

I have been trying to get a definitive answer to the question of whether you can purchase on the ship or not and I agree it will only promote smuggling if they stop this service.

 

Hopefully someone reading this thread will have the answer.

Thanks for pointing that out. Obviously, had I seen it I wouldn't have asked the question.
