With most of the ship now buying a "package" lately, they don't have much say about the gratuities anyway. Unless you have a real complaint about something that's gone wrong during the cruise, your sort of stuck.
We'll buy their package sometimes, and sometimes not depending on how I feel.
For our money it's just a waste as the internet isn't something I need and 15 drinks a day is way over my limit at my age. ;D

The real question is, what to do with all that OBC if I don't use it for gratuities?
Casino, perhaps?

We're pretty much typical Princess cruisers and don't look for all the things that RCL has to attract the younger crowd.....but lately what I've been seeing on YouTube makes me really want to give the Icon of the Seas a go.
Just to see what I've been missing out on.
Now if we could only go when all the kiddies are in school I think we might actually enjoy the change.
There's only so many times you can see the Princess production shows and not be a little bored.

I hope they enjoy it.

Last cruise to Trinidad we didn't even bother getting off the ship.

There's another "special" cruise we won't be on.  ;D ;)

Like Princess actually had a choice in making the change.  ;D ;D ;)

68
So there's another inflated salary that we all have to pay for.

It's been so long ago but I think it was around $400. Not really sure but the cabin they gave us was way forward, almost at the bow. Lots of walking.

Not exactly the same thing but we once received an offer to skip the cruise for a later one with OBC included.

We always seem to find a quiet spot no mater how crowded the ship.
People just love the main pool for some reason & then complain where there are no seats at 10 AM.

72
It's one of the main reasons we don't get the package. My wife hardly drinks at all so it certainly doesn't pay for her.
They should just limit the drinks to 15 per person and at least I would buy the package. As it is, they get no profit from us.

Not really sure what impact this will have. Maybe they consider activities on the 'island' as taxable.  :-\

That wouldn't surprise me in the least.

We missed Princess Cays last cruise and they returned $33 per person port charges back to our account. That wasn't bad considering we weren't getting off anyway and it almost paid for a dinner at a Specialty restaurant.  ;D

Has anyone looked at the price Princess now charges for shipboard weddings lately?
It's cheaper to elope first & then go on a cruise in a full suite.
