Gracie115 Posted July 17, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Once more I'm new to Oceania and going to be going on a 42 night cruise in 2024 and while looking around the Oceania website I came across these two options, "Unlimite Passport Collection" & "Your World Collection" in shore excursions area. How much do these cost to join? Are they worth it? Should I just book things one a time when they become available? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted July 17, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 17, 2022 When you go to your cruise (it may be too early for 2024) they give you a price for the package they vary from cruise to cruise Unlimited you can do daily tours if in a port for 1 price The YWC is a minimum number of tours required for a discounted price Check under Your cruise once logged into MY ACCOUNT under the excursion tab it may be there but then it may be too far out for the excursion pricing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMHuntFerry Posted July 17, 2022 #3 Share Posted July 17, 2022 The Unlimited package is typically not the most cost effective one (if you're a spreadsheet nut like me, you can prove it to yourself or just believe the nuts 🙂 ), but is probably the most comparable to an all-inclusive ships shorex offerings. As an example, my 10 day Dec. 2021 Caribbean cruise had 7 ports and the Unlimited was $769; many shorex have no additional charge, but the spendier ones do have additional fees. The YWC required a minimum of 4 shorex to get the 25% discount. If you also have O-Life shorex (on this cruise it was 3), they count toward the YWC minimum. The 25% discount is on almost every shorex (I think "executive cars" are excluded...read T&Cs for reality). If what LHT28 suspects is correct and your itinerary does not show shorex yet, look for a similar one in 2022 or 2023 and you can get an idea of what might be available in 2024 (pad the prices for increases). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you both. Yes, I will check an earlier comparable cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMHuntferry did an excellent job explaining this, just wanted to jump in and emphasize this point. Unlimited is not unlimited. The ones without an extra charge are usually in the same pool that the Olife excursions are in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seldom is the Passport worth the cost when compared to YWYW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
