Princess Cruises Raises Prices for Plus and Premier Packages and Revises WiFi Options

# What changed and when Princess Cruises announced price adjustments that take effect for all sailings departing on or after October 13, 2026. The company raised the daily rates for its two main amenity bundles—Princess Plus and Princess Premier—by $5 per day. The announcement also restructures standalone WiFi options and prices, and alters availability of multi-device packages.

# Price details The new package rates are clear and apply differently depending on whether the package is purchased before the cruise or onboard:

For the cruise line's two newest vessels, Sun Princess and Star Princess, each package will cost an additional $5 per day on top of the standard increase.

What's included: both packages bundle multiple amenities into a near all-inclusive experience. The listed inclusions are WiFi, drink packages, crew appreciation (gratuities that go to shipboard staff), casual dining, room service, and other benefits.

# WiFi changes and pricing

• New 2-device package:
• Pre-cruise: $39.99 per day
• Onboard (full voyage purchase): $47.99 per day
• Onboard (one day only): $55.99 per day
• Updated 1-device package:
• Pre-cruise: $27.99 per day
• Onboard (full voyage purchase): $33.99 per day
• Onboard (one day only): $39.99 per day

If you rely on multi-device connectivity and do not buy Princess Premier, options will be more limited because the 4-device package is no longer sold separately.

# Who this affects

• Travelers who buy amenity bundles: everyone sailing on or after October 13, 2026 will see the higher package rates if they purchase for those sailings.
• Guests who wait to buy onboard: onboard prices are higher than pre-cruise rates for both packages and for standalone WiFi.
• Guests on Sun Princess and Star Princess: expect an extra $5 per day on top of the standard increases for each package.

# Why Princess says it changed prices Princess framed the adjustments as periodic reviews to align offerings and pricing with their operating environment while continuing to provide value. The line last raised these two package prices on July 22, 2025.

# Practical decisions for travelers

• If you plan to buy a package, purchase before the cruise to lock the lower pre-cruise rate.

• If you are sailing on Sun Princess or Star Princess, factor the extra $5 per day into your budget.

These changes alter both the cost and the structure of how Princess sells connectivity and amenity bundles. Review your usual onboard spending and device needs before booking or before your sail date to choose the most cost-effective option.
