Creator's Key Takeaways

Yesterday, I let you know that American Airlines made the change that for their basic economy plane tickets, they are no longer going to be giving you frequent flyer miles or loyalty points.

Wi-Fi prices on Princess Cruises have indeed gone up. I looked at the website again just a minute before I did this video.

The Crown Princess just came out of her dry dock. She is on her way to Sydney um Australia to start um uh to be down in Australia.

They have added the Omali's and they have made it so that it can seat 134 people. Ali's is really a popular venue on board the ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take a closer look at your airlines' fare categories before booking to understand what you earn or don't earn.
Check if the price difference between economy ticket levels is worth forgoing frequent flyer miles or loyalty points.
Pay attention to airline and cruise line changes as they are often not announced.

Crown Princess Dry Dock Update! Airline Status & Cruise Loyalty Updates; What Has Changed? Is WiFi Price Up or Down? Today we have several important cruise and travel updates that I want to walk through with you carefully. First, I share a follow-up to yesterday’s American Airlines news by looking at Delta’s different economy fare levels, what you do and don’t earn with each one, and why it’s more important than ever to look closely at airline fare categories before you book. Next, we confirm that Princess Cruises’ Wi-Fi pricing has increased onboard, even though the website still shows the lower price. I talk about what guests are reporting, how this might affect your decision to buy Wi-Fi or a package, and why it’s good to know ahead of time. We also take a closer look at Virgin Voyages’ status match promotion. I explain what level they actually match to, why it’s not a true top-tier match, and what questions this raises about Virgin’s real goals with the promotion. Finally, we talk about the Crown Princess coming out of dry dock, the changes that were made, what venues were removed or added, and what Princess appears to be prioritizing moving forward. If you’re sailing on the Crown soon, I’d love your firsthand impressions. There’s a lot here today, and I really appreciate you thinking it through with me. God bless you, and thanks for being here. 💙⚓️ Our email address: letsgotraveltips@gmail.com 🛳️ Join us on our Upcoming Group Cruises: https://letsgotraveltips.com/upcoming-group-cruises/ 📟 Our Website: https://letsgotraveltips.com/ Thank you for watching Let's Go!
