paradiselivin1 Posted December 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Yes but without the cards you will need to track how many coffees have been charged. We've been on for almost 20 days and it seems that we have had endless coffees. I do miss the old coffee choices, tho'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I remembered the names but remember a white chocolate one that we used to get. Definitely more of a variety than there seems to be now. I like the flavored coffees and don't find the same selection. Getting a mocha every day as that's the best for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed that since Princess has started selling Princess plus or Premier to a high percentage of passengers, the people taking the order at the IC tend to be less dilegent in charging the drink to your coffee plan. Was just on a 15 day cruise. Had at least 1 coffee each day at the IC, and ended with 9 drinks left in the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee cards used to include unlimited coffee and tea, but no hot chocolate. Which is more expensive to make. Silly Princess bean counters.

I have a pot of tea each afternoon. I can get it in my stateroom IF I request elite tea, which was fine on my Caribe balcony last cruise (ended 12/18/22). But I only want tea + 2 scones or cookies. Really wasteful as I refuse all but that. Yeah, comes with 6 trays. On my next cruise I'm just up & down cold CA coast so I'd prefer getting tea & cookies (no scones at IC) while listening in piazza.

(Charged 2× for frozen mochas which accounting removed as it was an error. Different than charged 8× for tea which guest services removed) Edited December 27, 2022 by Ombud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. On Dec 8-18 voyage I was charged for each pot of tea as tea was no longer in the T&C Zre: Coffee pkg. However I used this pic to get it refunded each time. This discrepancy needs to be resolved at corp level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
