Soda package question

Does Princess offer a souvenir cup with the package?

Does Princess offer a souvenir cup with the package?

Yes.

According to the purchase info on the web site, it comes with a souvenir cup.

I would not call it a souvenir cup. It is a plastic insulated cup with a sipping lid and has the Coke logo all over it. There is nothing about the ship, Princess or any thing else on it. I have a collection of these cups from over the years and not much changes. Yes, a cup comes with the soda pop sticker. When you ask for refills with the cup they generally do not ask to see your sticker.

The cup does have the Princess logo on it.

And what's confusing to me.. if you "Go Big" meaning, purchase the AIBP.. you don't get the cup. :eek:

As other's have mentioned, doesn't have any "Princess" logo's on it so not a big concern to me. Just funny that you spend money on the highest package they offer and don't get the Coke cup.

You get the insulated cup with sipping lid/Coke logo with the basic package. If you purchase the all-inclusive package, you get a typical plastic reusable cup with lid and plastic straw like you can buy at any Walmart. At least that's how it was on our cruise last week.

The refill situation was hit or miss. Some waiters would ask if you wanted multiple drinks without seeing card, some wouldn't even refill what you had without seeing the card.

We left our insulated cup in the cabin after we disembarked....never used it on the cruise, and have a collection already at home so decided we didn't need another one.

My DH always get the soda package and the plastic clear type cup with removable screw top lid and straw has a tropical color design on it with the Princess logo on the front of it.

This one is from our last April cruise so pretty current.

We've had the AIBP several times since inception, in several different ships and never received the cup -and have asked every time (not that we want it, just curious as we're buying the most expensive package) and were told every time that the cup is only for soda or soda & more package.

So, if I may ask, what ship were you in that you got the package -and how? Star, Regal, Caribbean, etc all were a no go on the cup.

The "souvenir" cup with the Coke logo that a person receives with the soda package does not even hold a twelve ounce can of soda. Add ice and....

We prefer Diet Pepsi to Coke products so we bring our own canned Diet Pepsi with us.

Sorry I should have been more specific.....the Coke w/sipper lid is for the Coke package, the cup with plastic lid is for the 'soda + more'....not 'all inclusive'. My bad for misspeaking:)

BTW, we were on the Caribbean Princess. Also I agree with the poster above, all the cups are pretty much worthless as they hold so little. We also prefer Pepsi and carried on a 12 pack of cans, but also got the Coke card just so when we're 'out and about' we can stop and get one if needed.

Ahh, ok, thanks for clearing that up. Every time, we've been told they qere for sofa or soda & more, so was a bit surprised when you said all-inclusive package. Thanks for clarification?!

On Diamond now, they only offered Soda and More. Even when you asked, but only $7 Aus per day.

The cup holds about half the amount a cup at the pool deck holds.

if you have the soda and more package, can you get ice cream shades with it, and ice cream sundaes

On the ships that have it, milk shakes are included in that package. They would be available at the ice cream counter near one of the pools.

Ice cream sundaes not included, but you can have an ice cream sundae for dessert in a dining room.

I know the AIBP does not come with a cup, but I would enjoy it if they did, and reuse it at home. We always get the big package and the kids get soda one, so at least we get two cups to take home.

Are you sure about that?

On the Princess site, it does not say they are included anymore.

My DH gets the sodas and more package every cruise and loves the malts and milkshakes. He keeps asking me if I have found out yet if they are still included.

I'll tell you in a month or so.....What I was told when I called Princess was that on ships with the ice cream bar, shakes were included but that not all ships had them available. I never got a definitive answer for the ship we're on, but bought the package anyhow for my daughter.

Thank you so much, but we sail on Nov 21st, so I'll be sure to report back how it goes for us. Not a deal breaker by any means but DH just really likes them.

To make it even more consistent we got one of each instead of both the same when we both had the 'soda + more' package. :confused: At least we had two different ones to give to the kids when we got back.

On Diamond now, shakes definitely included. Haven't seen sundaes but they will put the ice cream in a little cup with some malt on top, occasionally seen nuts on top.

Just got back and my DSF had sundaes every time we ate in the traditional dining room (Symphony) as part of his meal.

At Gelatos, I paid as my sticker didnt cover them.

(On Regal, say hi to Ivan in there, hes so sweet!)

I had purchased just the soft drinks card. I thought it only included soft drinks like iced tea and coke, etc, but did get virgin pina coladas, sex on the beach and more. At the international cafe, we also received our basic hot chocolates with my card (though they were made with the steamed milk and chocolate syrup - and not the mix like whats served in the buffet areas)

From a sales brochure that arrived in the mail today about the Unlimited Soda & More Package:

"The Unlimited Soda & More Package includes tumbler with straw, fountain soda by the glass, Root Beer in the can, malt and thick shakes at the ice cream bars only, hot chocolate, fruit juices and mocktails, with a prepaid 15% gratuity included for these items."

Off Diamond yesterday and those shakes (included in the package) must be responsible for at least 2 kg of the 3 I put on.
