"Thanks for generously sharing your time at sea with everyone at Cruise Critic!"

seagunthera was awarded the badge '"Live from...."'

Since this system is new to me and it's my first purchase of the Premier Package, I thought I'd start a little "live" report of what we're winning. 

 

A few basics I've learned thus far:

-game only works when the casino is open

-if you have an underage passenger, their medallion won't activate the game upon entering

-game resets after a few minutes

-you need to look on the app to see what you've won (door simply displays "congrats!" or "better luck next time"

 

 

Day 1 (embarkation): won two entries into the end-of-the-cruise raffle

Day 2 (at sea): won several entries into the EOTC raffle and $25 onboard credit

Day 3 (at sea): won another entry into the EOTC raffle and another $25 onboard credit

Day 4 (Loreto): docked all day thus far, but will update if we win anything tonight:-) 

 

I'd love to know what others are winning or thoughts on experiences as a whole with this part of the Premier Package.

We won $250 and quite a few entries into the raffle. Had to be spent on board though, but we had already spent a fair bit, so it was deducted from our final bill. 

Fabulous!

Another 3 entries to the raffle yesterday.

I wonder if the odds of winning have anything to do with the number of Premier Package guests who are on the particular sailing. Also, on our last cruise, we noticed a guy in our hallway was frequently outside his room opening the door and looking at the screen. We figured he was trying to get a lot of chances to win something. Looked like a boring thing to do.

Probably the guy that posted on here a few months ago, that he knew how to win, by opening and closing his door. 😳

Ooo, sorry gang, the "poop on Princess Prizes" thread is over a few pages. This one is just for a live update for a 10 day cruise. Cheers y'all 🤗

Apologies for not posting in a bit (having too much fun in the ports:).  Today is disembarkation day and I racked up a total of twenty-one entries into the raffle. Last evening, I won another $25 (in cash) at that raffle. So a total of $75 won ($50 in onboard credit and $25 in cash).  

 

Having the Princess Prizes on the screen was a fun little experience to have each time we entered the cabin (while the casino was open) but I don't think I will purchase the Premier Package again as most of the expensive wines I like by the glass were no longer available a few days into the cruise and we didn't really take a bunch of pictures.

I am reading a few posts like this.....the premium wines on the Premier package are not in abundance...Princess over promising and under delivering ?

Did you mention this to Guest Services etc?
