CoopColbie Posted June 22, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Hi all I've recently started looking at taking a cruise on Princess. I see that the US and Canada are about to enjoy a 'Sip N Sail' promotion, which is not available to us Aussie Cruisers. Do Aussie Cruiser get any decent promos from Princess throughout the year?

Rare MicCanberra Posted June 22, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I have found many specials occur outside of the actual sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MMDown Under Posted June 22, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Solo Alaska Southbound on Star Princess on July 14th for local resident - $US499 balcony, $349 oceanview, $249 inside. Now that is a good discount! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icat2000 Posted June 24, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Sometime around never. Princess sells well in Australia. You might see some discounting around after final payment date or very close to sailing date. But I always find that their specials are not really specials.

Dobby_The_Ship_Elf Posted June 24, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Do Aussie Cruiser get any decent promos from Princess throughout the year?Tania When the first Princess ship leaves shore with an empty state room you MAY see a discount offer .... until then, as long as the masses are gobbling up the Princess 'cruise cake' I doubt we can expect to see any decent discount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcruizer Posted June 27, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Are they not selling as well in the states, if they have to offer such good deals.... So annoying to not be getting the same promotions.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportfisher Posted June 27, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 27, 2018 $1 deposit sale on some cruises today and tomorrow as well as discounts. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Port Power Posted June 27, 2018 #9 Share Posted June 27, 2018 What about the "fly free" promotion finishing this month? I booked Golden Princess out of Melbourne and received return flights from Perth (on dates of my choosing) as well as large OBC and deluxe balcony breakfast for two. I call that a good deal. The cruise price was not inflated either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getting older slowly Posted June 30, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Us is a different market, a lot of last minute stuff for people to get holidays etc. we book a long way in advance, and our cruise market is growing, so they fill the ship easily.... So the bottom line if you are comfortable to pay the fare for your cruise go, if not don't go But we can live in hope Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcruizer Posted July 1, 2018 #11 Share Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) Todays sale was good to me. I saw a drop of $200 each and OBC of $450 for our cabin. This is a 14 night cruise. The other cruise of 11 nights went up $200 each and only $200 for the total cabin OBC. The latter cruise is more in demand. Both from Europe. So I am pleased that I have the option of buying a drinks package with the savings, so its a win this time for us as we rebooked the 14 night cruise.

taffy62 Posted July 14, 2018 #14 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Yep I been keeping an eye out on a Majestic cruise in 2019 and its never included in the special deals. It's not that it's a new cruise liner to Oz as other dates are included :( Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J&N16416 Posted August 12, 2018 #15 Share Posted August 12, 2018 We just got return flights from Perth to Sydney included in our deal as well as onboard credit. I had booked months ago and then this deal came up and luckily I had only two days left to change. Ended saving about $300 so going to stay in Sydney and extra night or two now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joybook Posted August 13, 2018 #16 Share Posted August 13, 2018 After you make a booking you must keep checking on the cruise price regularly. I do most of my bookings direct with Princess (don't trust Travel agents to do the right thing anymore and they have never given me anything). One cruise after booking, there were two price reductions. On ringing Princess to see if I was eligible for the reduced fare, they reduced the price of my cruise on both occasions. You need to weigh up though when you see some of the sales, that what is being offered actually works out cheaper for you than what you already have.
