Princess Captain’s Circle Members – Please designate if you are a past passenger with Princess Cruises as the cruise line may offer special amenities to past passengers.

Cruise rates do not include items such as:  Airfare, any transportation costs to and from the ship, tips & gratuities, some beverages, sodas, alcoholic beverages, shore excursions/tours, insurance, optional on-board services, etc. unless specified.

Double occupancy pricing explained.Cabin pricing is quoted per person/double occupancy meaning the price calculation
per person is based on two people occupying the cabin.

Example If you were to stay at a hotel and the price was $150 per night for the room … as a single person in the room you would pay the entire amount of $150 while if there were two people staying in the room, the cost would be split between the 2 people and the cost would be $75 to each person ($150 /2 people = $75 per person). You can occupy a cabin as a single person (single occupancy) however your cost will be double (less the 2nd set of tax and port charges) as you will be paying for the entire cabin yourself.
