VibeGuy Posted March 21, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2023 From the “Wasn’t Expecting To See That” today file: Legendary Texas-centric purveyor of greasy cheeseburgers is teasing this in their social media today. I’m genuinely intrigued to see what they cook up here. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that the stuff will end up including something with Princess. Maybe OBC? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissP22 Posted March 21, 2023 #7 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Looks like just another "pay to eat" option on Princess. I doubt they'll ever be another free option for food on any of their ships. They seem to be elimination the included things with pay items. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjpj Posted March 21, 2023 #8 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Whataburger coming to a Princess ship near you - would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whataburger has only regional appeal. Galveston would be the only port where most local passengers would be familiar with the brand vs. for example Guy's burgers on Carnival, where Guy Fieri has exposure across the US on Food Network. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruise2relax Posted March 21, 2023 #16 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Sounds more like a promo that Whataburger is running from the screenshot, not that Princess is joining forces with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antsp Posted March 21, 2023 #17 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Id be very surprised if its a tie in, Whataburger are not really a recognised brand much out of texas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted March 21, 2023 #18 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I love WB! Every time we drive down to Florida we always make a stop either going or coming back for a WB. There used to be a lot more around... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the FB wording, looks line a rewards points deal. As far as brand recognition. Princess went with Ernesto Uchimura for the Ernesto burger and at that time, there were only two Umami Burger locations. He has other restaurant brands and locations now. BTW, A combo at Umami Burger is like $20. I really miss the Ernesto burgers onboard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare stevenr597 Posted March 21, 2023 #24 Share Posted March 21, 2023 (edited) Personally I am not going to travel on Princess because of their hamburgers, especially if there is a surcharge. For lunch the standard hamburger stand is good enough. Edited March 21, 2023 by stevenr597 Add one comment 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever since they got bought out by a private equity firm based in Chicago, Whataburger has become a shell of its former self just not good anymore. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
