Princess 2023-2024 Americas Program opens for sale for Elite Captain's Circle Members Aug 9

Just heard from my TA who was trying to book two contiguous rooms for me on the April 2024 South Pacific and Hawaiian Islands 32 day cruise.  She got our desired cabin reserved at about 11:45 am (I've confirmed that on-line) and then Princess' booking system went down:

 

I held a cabin for you and when we went to clone/ book the 2nd cabin the system shut down and the itinerary/ pricing hasn’t come back up.

Rep thinks that inventory department is in it – so I need to call back in about an hour and keep checking for them to load the sailing again.

I know us lowly platinum members can't book until tomorrow, but would you mind sharing the itinerary for the 32 day cruises out of LA?   Thanks

And I just knew I could come on here and someone would let me know when the itineraries actually show.

Thanks CC!

 

 

Also waiting for an email from our wonderful TA that she (HOPEFULLY!!!) got us the cabin we wanted on our 2023 cruise!

Yes. I was just looking at the fares for that one. I’ll pass for now, especially as I’m out of FCDs.

 

 

Yes, the new cruises really are expensive but our absolutely AMAZING TA got us our favorite cabin!

You only live once - less to leave the kids.

I was on the phone with Princess at 11 Eastern and booked a Island and Enchanted cruise but no Sky Caribbean voyages are available for booking.  The agent says they show up on her system but she can't access them.  Supervisor had no info.  Agent has my request and will make them when ship becomes available.

Great cruise but the only disappointment is that , with 32 days and only 8 ports there are no real overnights.

 

(If anyone was interested in the Oct. 2023 cruise, it's the same but it's Hilo instead of Mauai, and it's the day before Honolulu.)

Thank you!  One more question, do you mind listing the balcony price for the 32 day April 5th cruise?  Thanks again

 

Not at all.  For two people, balcony price per person begins at:

I just checked Princess website.  The 32 day LA to LA South Pacific Cruise is available on line to Elites.

Happy Travels

We just booked the 32 day, South Pacific cruise, but WOW sticker shock!  But, it will be our 45th anniversary.  Can't take it with you!

My Cvp booked the cabin we wanted on the Solar Eclipse cruise. Didn't open up for booking until 8.00 AM. I was feeling frustrated, because all the deluxe balconies were showing "Reserve." Fortunately, I had told Melanie what I wanted and she always comes through.

We got it, too!  Super excited!  Only 603 days away🤣

  • Discovery Princess returns for her second homeport season out of Los Angeles, sailing to Mexico, the California Coast, and, for the first time ever, to the Hawaiian Islands.

Any details on Discovery going to Hawaii?  I am elite, but still not seeing it.

Good Afternoon from a low-level Captain's Circle member! Can any Elite members help our family to look at the new sailings to see if there are any 10-day Southern Caribbean (Barbados) sailings that were added after February 14, 2023? We're curious if it picks up right after that sailing or has a short break. Thank you!

Which cruise is this? image.png.70d49ad3b0593c79ad86b79f9a929639.png 

 

 

Okay, mentioned this one to my wife and now have a calendar reminder (starts warning me a week in advance) to book this on August 9th. 😁

Check out HAL’s 35 day version.  Better itinerary IMO

It's there, but overnighting in Honolulu and skipping Kauai.

Dec of 2023 and March of 2024.  Since Princess drug their feet coming out with these itineraries, we had already booked cruises in both of those time periods.  

I hope they repeat these sailings for late 2024 and early 2025.  Sailing past the NaPali coast and visiting Kauai would be nice though.

Someone posted about it being expensive.  That Inside price is pretty cheap for 10 nights!

I agree, it's pretty cheap as per-day rates go, even for an inside. We just booked a balcony at what we think is an amazing rate. Lower than what we've paid in quite a while.

Found a 14 day on 3/9/24 on the Ruby that visits Barbados.   There is another 14 day on 2/21/24 on the Emerald, but St. Vincent replaces Barbados.

Thank you for checking Susan. Darn, it looks like our cruise certificate is only valid for 10-day sailings. I was hoping they would continue the 10-day sailings throughout 2023.

They asked about 2023?  I’d check for them, but I can’t log in. 😆
