It's been nice having reserved seating for production shows. Our traveling partners are wine connoisseurs so they enjoy the "premium" wines. And we've taken advantage of the photo package...but as to whether or not it's really worth it...hmmm, probably not. (For us, anyway. ) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puzzums Posted November 20, 2023 #52 Share Posted November 20, 2023 So, to get back to the original question…sort of, lol, is there no canned pop to be found on board for those with the Plus? On vacation I do love to have a Coke at my bedside while I read before going to sleep. A freshly opened can is 100 times fizzier than the flat stuff you get from a fountain. But a six-pack (if that’s all they will allow on embarkation day) isn’t going to go very far on a 14-night cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have picked up one or two unopened cans as we pass to restock out mini bar. Carry on at embarkation is a 12 pack of cans per person, We have not had issues with carrying on pop at port stops even if in plastic bottles.

What Brad of cans have you been able to get on one of the Princess packages. For us it has always been fountain soda. something new? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they were giving can soda as included in Plus or Premier packages when we were on the Majestic sailing Sydney to LA last April, so at least 8 months ago, do you consider 8 months ago ‘new’? Cans I have seen are Coke, Diet Coke, Caffeine free versions, ,Ginger ale, Sprite and Diet Sprite or Zero instead of Diet. Believe it depends on where in the world being supplied, as Diet is not available in some places but Zero is. Fanta orange soda. The description on the Princess website states ‘fountain’ soda for both packages, so it has not been updated, surprised? When the packages were first introduced, it was fountain soda only.

Personal choice is what it is, a choice. Every choice has a consequence, I prefer to play by the rules. What are the consequences if I ignore the rules and bring water onboard. Princess don't seen to care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really convenient to have 12 bottles of water just waiting for you in your cabin when you arrive. It's the best $7.08 bargain to be had on board! Just remember to pop several into the fridge right away so they can be cooling. Did you know that you can also call room service and they will deliver the bottled water to your stateroom for you and it’s covered under the package. We have been able to order up to 12 bottles at a time and it is delivered promptly. I know the $7 isn’t a lot but you could put that or some of that towards tipping for the delivery instead. Gone are those days when you can’t order deliveries for food and drink on embarkation day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cruise Raider Posted November 21, 2023 #61 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Sorry .. I was one that went off topic on my last two posts. Hopefully, it will help the OP and here is an answer to the question about tipping extra. If you choose to have extra tips go to a specific crew member, you will have to do so in cash. We asked to place it on our folio against our leftover OBC and found out that while you can do so, it goes fleet wide and is used for salaries across the board.

Thank you to everyone for the good news. My last Princess cruise was on the Emerald in January and cans were not included. I am so pleased and it looks like I will be able to get my favorite CF Diet Coke. It has always been a slight negative for me with Princess.
