The ability to bring wine back on board used to be the actual policy on a cruise designated as a Wine Cruise. Maybe the spirit of it is still alive, even if the policy isn’t.

Before drink packages, when it was in the Sky Lounge, and you got tickets, people quite often tipped a dollar or two. I guess the same could apply now.

Yes, I’m waiting, no I don’t have an idea. Particularly waiting for August, 2026, cruises around Iceland, northwestern Spain, or the western Med, at the time of the solar eclipse. Cunard and Princess have already announced theirs.

It’s unfortunate it hasn’t worked out for you, but from your post it sounds like you find the whole San Francisco port situation unsuitable for you. So, even a different cruise line, or a more helpful Princess, wouldn’t have mattered. Princess does have an Alaska cruise next summer (2025) round trip from San Pedro. You might want to look into that.

Sky is Norway/Iceland, they were talking about a Med cruise. if the T&C give the booking agency the right to charge £150, I expect they will, regardless of whether those rooms are officially canceled or Princess cancels them for nonpayment of the outstanding balance.

Why do you think it’s beyond final payment date when they say, “My question is if I just let the duplicate bookings run their course and don't pay the final balance when it's due - presumably the bookings would just get cancelled automatically?”

That’s why people most often use the median when talking about income statistics.

I was speaking more generally, in assistance of the OP, not about me personally. But if the $24.99/day is accurate, that’s a hard number to start from when deciding whether to go back to Plus+upgraded Internet or to keep Premier.

I was curious because the website says $24.99/day. For someone crunching the numbers, and looking at a $20/pp/day difference, there’s a big difference between having to find $30/day of value in having two people on Premium and having to find $15/day.

What does it cost a person with no Princess status to upgrade from 1 to 4?

Gummies, no muss, no fuss, no smell.

Perhaps, it’s like a lot of things seem to be on cruises there days - There’s a rule, but there’s no penalty for violating it.

Somewhere in the reservation process on the app, I clicked a button about premiere included. I didn’t charge my credit card at all when I made the reservation.

The post mentions Princess near the beginning, so I think it was meant for this board. What the point of it is, though is not clear unless it’s to solicit feedback about missed ports on Princess cruises.

The 11 day ones from San Francisco sometimes get there early. Not often, if ever, for the 7 day Seattle ones.
