Original Plus then upgraded plus now upgraded upgraded plus

[Mr Sea Gull]

I booked last year and have Original Plus and believed that only the new additions were not now included. Drink prices were supposed to be up to $15 increased from the previous $12 which was confirmed by cruisers when the change took effect.

Today the previously upgraded plus and premier have been upgraded again and apparently these new upgrades are also excluded as we booked a year ago. 

 

In the new terms and conditions they now state the following for Original Plus

"The Plus Beverage Package included in the Original Princess Plus Package includes all beverages priced up to $12.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s). "

and for Original Premier

"The Premier Beverage Package included in the Original Princess Premier Package includes all beverages priced up to $18.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s)."

then this 

Upgraded Princess Plus Package Terms:

*The Plus Beverage Package included in the Upgraded Princess Plus Package includes all beverages priced up to $15.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s).

Upgraded Princess Premier Package Terms:

*The Premier Beverage Package included in the Upgraded Princess Premier Package includes all beverages priced up to $20.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s).

 

So are they now downgrading what has been on offer since the original upgraded version?

I don't think anybody fully understands the ramifications of the new announcement regarding new pricing since nobody has actually experienced it. It may be awhile before we get the full picture.

@Mr Sea Gull, IDK if UK is different, but it has been clear that the guests with old package price receive drinks up to $15.  Drink prices increased.  By increasing the per drink price ceiling, guests can still get the drinks they would have got before under the old ceiling.  I suspect bad information not carefully vetted before posting on website (not the first time).

Yes that was what I believed was correct that the drink price had increased. Should not be different in the UK it would cause mayhem with the multiple international guests. Hope your right that the info just hasn't been vetted. On Sky for the 1st cruise that these new upgrades start on so fingers crossed.
