Rare hammo Posted March 27, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Thinking of a little 2 night cruise Melbourne to Sydney rather than flying , and can see that through a couple of agents I am offered a Princess Plus deal which includes a beverage package etc . I had assumed Princess wouldnt offer this for a 2 nighter - but seems I can book this at the elevated price which would be fine by us . Has anyone had this deal or similar before and the Plus Deal as offered with the beverages ? This is through Australian agents . We are Platinum with Princess and have had the Plus package on a 6 nighter in January and that was excellent , just surprised that it might be available on this 2 nighter as many cruise lines do not offer a package for such a short cruise . ?. Hope its right and beats flying . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennybenny Posted March 27, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Do it! Back in the day, you could add the beverage package to any cruise, even an one nighter (Ive heard that is no longer the case). If it's available, I'd take it. Nice to have the gratuity and drinks included ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hammo Posted March 27, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Thanks for the reply Jennybenny - agree to that , just not sure if Princess have changed their policy here in Australia - previously they have never offered the beverage package deal on a cruise less than 7 nights in Australia , and whilst we were able to take that offer on a 6 nighter recently via the Princess Plus , I was thinking a 2 nighter was unlikely even though the agents were seemingly offering it . Cheers . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kellyansapansa Posted March 27, 2023 #4 Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) We have booked a two night cruise from Adelaide to Melbourne in November and we had the choice of either the Plus Package or the Premier Package. We've chosen the Premier as the cost to splurge for two nights is reasonably low. The Premier inclusions are all listed in our booking confirmation. 😊 Edited March 27, 2023 by Kellyansapansa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted March 27, 2023 #5 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Clarification please...Did you get the Plus cruise fare option or is this an add-on Plus beverage package? Princess really dropped the ball with this confusing use of terminology using "Plus"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We bought the Premier Package which includes the cruise fare, beverage package, unlimited photos, fitness classes, premium desserts, etc, etc. Yes, it is very confusing. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hammo Posted March 28, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Yes we were thinking to buy the Plus Fare with those benefits but I also see you can purchase the add on after you buy a fare and even when on board ? So it seems the Plus or Premium will be honored on a 2 night sail then . The premium also adds 2 Specialty Restaurant reservations - with the other addons it seems better than the plus , although the deserts look ordinary and Ive never been enticed to participate in a fitness class lol . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
