We’ve put together 16+ Tips and Tricks to help you save money and time on your next Princess Cruise! Just like the line airlines, most of the major cruise lines are trying all the tricks they can to take more out of your pocket before and during your cruise. We’re always watching for the latest cruise news to see all the little add-on fees, where they’ve increased prices and some of the misleading promotions that cruise lines run so they can show you the lowest price and make up the difference later.
This video can be helpful for a new cruiser, someone who’s been away for a while from cruising and the expert cruiser who might not have noticed the extras being snuck in.

I was on the Regal Princess in a guaranteed inside cabin with a non-refundable rate and had an absolutely great time. The quality of the MDR and buffet was such that we were tempted by the premium or other dining options. We enjoyed it more than many of our Celebrity and HAL cruises. Agree with most of your tips and will be returning to the Regal in March.
Great video. Thanks
Great video! I definitely check my folio every day.
We are sailing on the sun princess in May of 2025. We pushed it out so they can work out all the kinks as well as some scheduling issues for the itinerary we wanted. We an extended balcony and premiere package at a fantastic price cause we booked far in advance. Good thing, that cruise sold out very quickly.
