Premier plan question---

[Jetswdo]

I paid for Premier plan months ago with my booking.    I just noticed that a few things were added to that plan since. Will those extra perks then be included with my cruise booking?  Just trying to understand how this will work.  Thanks, Anita

Yes, as long as you do not mean prior to Dec 14, 2022, by "a few months ago".

I did this in Oct. 2023.  So even though the new items appeared in beinning on Jan. 2024, it will be included automatically to my booking?

I found this. Is this what you are referencing?  Or was there some other items added in January 2024?

 

Did you pay the current $80 per day per person for the Premier?  

also if you log into your Princess Account, click on Luggage tags and Travel  Summary, and then Print summary, you will see what is included for you.

What items were added in Jan 2024?

There were a few things posted as "new" included unlimited casual restaurants--- Just look at the Princess website where it posts the various plans.

Those were added last year, in August, so that's why people are confused.

Diamond Princess

Under Princess Standard: complimentary dining

Under Princess Premier: complimentary dining and casual dining meals

 

What is the difference between complimentary dining and casual dining meals?

Thanks!

@HSBC

Complimentary refers to the MDR and some of the Lido deck "no extra charge" eateries. Casual dining is the new nomenclature for the extra cost dining spots (such as Alfredo's & others) that *used* to be complimentary.

The Diamond Princess has two casual dining venues.

Kai Sushi and Alfredo's Pizza a pop up venue.

My understanding is that the 'new' items (casual dining, ocean now, room service) weren't so much added to the Premier package (they were previously free) but rather they started charging for those things for anyone without a package. They added new charges to make the packages more appealing rather than adding new benefits to the packages.
