Easy peazy 😁 They’re closed now. I wonder if anything will be available tomorrow when they open? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geehp Posted May 2 #54 Share Posted May 2 Thanks so much for the heads up on this. We just booked a non Reserve mini suite on deck 11. It’s confirmed and showing it includes the Premier package. While we’d prefer the Reserve option, hard to pass up a $570 conventional mini suite. We figure with the Premier included dining benefits and the OBC from the deposits, we will be able to enjoy specialty restaurants enough to make up for the loss of the dedicated Reserve dining room. Fingers crossed on the Star getting ready in time for this sailing. Definitely thinking about booking the flights, once available, via EZ Air, in case this cruise gets canceled. See you all on the roll call. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edspec Posted May 2 #55 Share Posted May 2 Just booked two cabins on Star 10/15/25, thank-you. We got standard but that is ok, great deal. Thank-you OP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wintrev Posted May 2 #56 Share Posted May 2 Well this is typical - Aussies get nothing!!! When I search the cruise mentioned it definitely doesn’t show $0. Suites are sold out and mini’s start at $4,149. There are prices for every cabin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your travel summary In your personalizer. They show as Standard when booking but if you clicked it you’d see the Premiere.

pkster Posted May 2 #59 Share Posted May 2 I just took the leap and booked a Cabana mini-suite. The total was $570 for two ($400 deposit that converts to OBC plus $70 port fees). I see the following in the travel summary: Does this mean we got the Premier package as well?!?!? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwimum Posted May 2 #62 Share Posted May 2 Obviously gremlins in the web site. Booked for the 10/15. The spp shows an entirely different {Portland to Southampton). Credit card has been charged. Do not hold much hope. On the other hand Barcelona to Fll pricing looks good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Virgin abandoning Australia and now Princess favouring the Americans! Do they think we can’t fly to Europe?????? Why am I not given the same equal opportunities??? Come on Princess lift your game - looks like cruising altogether is dropping done my list of things to do - will go spend my hard earned dollars with companies that treat everyone equally and keep it here in Australia!

Mud_Shark Posted May 2 #67 Share Posted May 2 (edited) Made a booking on Oct 15th Star, but summary does not show Premier package - just a regular booking. But still, if it works - a good deal. And we don't use casino. My guess for Star Princess - this is kind of an attempt to mitigate the press disaster of the Sun Princess, as it had to cancel some of its early cruises and even when it sailed, half the venues were not up and operating, nor was all the entertainment operating. I guess this way if the ship is not fully operating, people can't really complain with the price being offered.

Rare tulok Posted May 2 #68 Share Posted May 2 We will be joining you. Some cabana mini suites available. Credit card was charged the 570.00 and Princess summary can be seen.🤷🏼♀️💃🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dog Posted May 2 Author #69 Share Posted May 2 Listen all, I posted posing a question, as I have never had a comp cruise, only a few casino discounts. Happy for those who felt they could take the RISK with a Nonrefundable deposit. Sorry for those who are not happy. I understand that comp cruises were given to Many Media for the Sun’s first few cruises- bloggers, agents- many who had their photos posted here from their fb pages. I had no problem with that. This offer may not be valid, but to me worth a try. If joining us on Oct 15/25, I welcome you to further chat in the Star roll call.I will request thread be closed to keep things positive. dog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Australians are always given the short end of the stick by ALL cruise lines whether it be pricing or the oldest ships in the fleet being sent here. Didn’t mean to cause you stress but we are just fed up with the unfairness of the whole situation. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
