TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Group Cruise Must-Knows:

This group is open to all supporters/followers of our channels, but we will be offering separate on-sale dates and may be subject to change and may be bought forward –

  • Patreon & Paying YouTube Members – 2nd July 2023 
  • Newsletter Subscribers – 5th July 2023
  • General Sale – 7th July 2023 
  • As a group we are not holding any cabins/grades and are working on general available inventory.
  • Your quote will be based on the best pricing available for the grade of cabin you choose, including any promotions at the time of your booking. 
  • Included in the fare will be: 
    • Exclusive access to Group events and activities that will be confirmed closer to departure date. 
      • The final events, timings and locations will be advised ahead of time subject to final agreement with Princess Cruises and will be made available in printed form onboard.
    • Any promotions being applied by Princess cruises at the time of booking
    • A pre-cruise Private Facebook Group to discuss and make plans.
    • Plus, other surprises and extras to be announced before sailing.
  • Captain’s Circle Loyalty (UK guests):
    Your Captain’s Circle benefits will be available as standard.
  • Captain’s Circle Loyalty (Non-UK guests):
    Unfortunately, as this is a UK-based group, loyalty benefits will not be able to be applied at time of booking.  However, we are investigating with Princess the possibility of having your loyalty details added once onboard to allow you to take advantage of any onboard benefits your Captain’s Circle membership entitles you to.

The group cruise will be an informal way to get to know us as well as an opportunity for us to get to know you. You should feel free to join organised events as you wish and make whatever plans you’d like, to make this an enjoyable vacation. We will keep everyone posted about any plans we make should you wish to join (e.g. excursions)   

If you book this cruise separately and not as part of the group booking it will, of course, be great to see you on board, but unfortunately only Group Cruise members will be able to attend any organised events due to the way that Princess Cruises provides these benefits to the group.

When booking opens, bookings to join the group cruise should be made through Dan Hammond of GoCruise & Travel based in the UK. Contactable via dan@gocruise.uk.com
