It’s forecasted that many travelers will be taking cruises this year, and one cruise line in particular is making an adjustment to its pricing structure. Princess Cruises has announced it will be rolling out a new “crew appreciation” fee while also increasing the cost of food and beverages.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, the cruise line said, “Starting March 8, we will implement a $1-per-guest-per-day increase to the crew appreciation amount for guests who do not hold a Princess Premier, Princess Plus .” “Food and beverage service charges will be adjusted from 18% to 20% for those who do not hold a Princess Premier, Princess Plus , or other beverage packages,” the statement continued. The spokesperson said the changes will help the cruise line “keep pace with rising operational costs” — and that 100% of collected gratuities will go directly to the crew. “We remain committed to delivering outstanding value and memorable vacations for our guests,” the company added.
