Are you a big soda drinker? Would you pay $3 for a can of soda plus a tip on a cruise? Well, this is an issue with Princess.

Packages

Do you get the Plus or Premier while traveling on the Prince? What is the main purpose of getting this type of package?

Well, let’s break down the packages quickly.

Is this a good deal?

Depends

It all depends on what you are looking for. If you are a heavy drinker, this is a good fit. But in the past, they have included canned soda in these packages. We went through the Panama Canal and got the Premier package. We chose it mainly for the 4 WIFI devices per person. Plus, my wife is a big Diet Coke drinker, and this was a good choice for that.

We don’t drink alcohol, but I had a few sodas. The juice bar was nice, and we had bottled water. The Ocean Now delivery service was nice. We also enjoyed the professional photos and crew appreciation. We went back in October 2023.

They provided cans for us. That is the way my wife likes to drink her Diet Coke. She doesn’t like fountain drinks.

Princess nowadays

If you have one of the above packages, you will not get a soda. You will be charged $3 plus 18% for every can they want.

Is this the best way to treat the people who buy the packages?

But if you get the soda package, you can get cans for $17.69 a day, which is a lot cheaper than the $65 for the plus package. 

But if you are just a soda drinker, this will be a good choice.

Individual Prices

This is for an eleven-day cruise

Soda Package $17.69 ($194.59)

Crew Appreciation: $176 ($16 daily)

Internet $274.89 ($137.5 / Platinum pricing)

Total Price $645.48

Plus package $660.00

However, the individual pricing is cheaper if you add the zero alcohol package.

Zero-Alcohol Drink Package  $35.39 ($389.29)

It would be more expensive to do the individual prices.

You must decide what you must do and the route you will take. I will most likely do the plus package. That way, I will have access to hot chocolate and desserts.
