    Thanks for the great video.
    We love the AI concept of pay once and get the full benefits. It can be more expensive than buying it individually on board.
    What's more, for us Europeans we don't know the tipping system, where a fixed amount is added to the bill. This does not apply if you buy one of these packages.
    In addition, the drink prices are very high in our eyes. On European ships they are a lot lower. A beer is around 5 dollars and a wine starts at 6 dollars, and table wine and beer are included with the main meals.
    You notice this on the bill for the additional costs.
    We will be travelling with an American shipping company for the first time this year. We want to do the east coast and Canada. Princess is also on the shortlist.

      Thank you for your comment! I had the Premier package last time I sailed with Diamond Princess in Asia, I really liked the reserved theater seats for Princess production shows. But coming to the theater earlier , you will also find good seats. Now I think back, I also appreciate the unlimited specialty coffee as a coffee drinker. The wifi that comes with the package had high quality, with which I could get some work done (sometimes this kind of thing is necessary 😂). I don’t drink too much alcoholic beverages although I did order a few cocktails while onboard. So, some offers in the Premier package are nice to have whether or not are have-to-have are totally different matter. Individual preference carries weight. That is where other options come in: regular fare, the plus package. I will give more thoughts to choosing a package next time. @TN-mb9rx, enjoy your upcoming cruise vacation.

    Good comparison. We go with the Plus package as it works best for our cruise experience.

      I totally agree. Plus give’s enough of what you truly need.

    Packages are a way to spend a lot of money upfront, more than I spend during the cruise.
    The package must be paid for the entire cruise. I don’t spend a lot everyday, so paying as I go works well for me. 🎉

    My partner and I travelled on Princess late 2024 and unfortunately the experience doesn't stack up against other cruise lines. The boat, Diamond Princess, was old and very very tired. Lots of things were broken, the decor was really tired, and even though we had the premier package, the best spot on the boat was blocked behind a paywall. $70 a day to use a spa and a shelter area with no bar??? The premier package worked well because we ended up abandoning trying to find a seat at the packed out cruise entertainment areas where old people had pushed the cushions off the chairs and were literally sleeping mid morning near the bar along the main thoroughfare. I was incredibly disappointed with this cruise. There were a lot of angry old people and it did not feel like a happy holiday. Jump onto Royal Caribbean and within half hour you feel like you're on holidays. Happy music playing everywhere. Happy staff and happy clients.

      Thanks for your comment. I understand your frustration with the state of the ship. I’ll keep your feedback in mind for my future videos.

      Royal Caribbean marketer are ya? Why not do your own RC video?

      @T7nskie that's a pretty idiotic statement to make. No. I'm not a salesperson at all. Simply stating a fact. You want to not investigate other cruise lines, that's your experience to miss out on. I'm booked on another Princess Cruise early next year on a much better boat. We are hoping the experience is a lot better.

      Thank you for your comment. I should have done more comparison but many other creators have done it. However, I did some of it in this video, I purposely showed a comparison table, in which I compiled with latest information from Princess, several times. In addition, I wanted encourage viewers share their thoughts and comments, as you have kindly done so. Sharing thoughts and cruise experiences may help more people, I firmly believe so.
