We’ve got several updates for you from onboard the Star Princess today — some of them might surprise you! 🚢 Here’s what’s new (and changing) on Princess Cruises: 🥤 Soda Situation (“Sodagate”) – Guests are being charged for canned sodas, even with drink packages. What you need to ask for to avoid surprise charges. ☕ International Café Update – Now closes at midnight (no longer open 24/7). Find out where to get your early-morning coffee instead. 🍽️ Buffet & Diner Changes – The Eatery is now fully self-serve, and the Americana Diner is part of the buffet during breakfast & lunch. 🚐 Marseille Shuttle Service – $16 round trip, now bookable through the app or shore excursion desk. 🌊 Weather & Itinerary – Strong winds delayed sailaway by 12 hours, but we’re back on track to arrive in Rome. 🥂 Formal Night Tonight – Plus details on the new Celestial Champagne Soirée replacing the traditional waterfall. 🍷 Room Service Shrinking – Fewer items available via the Medallion app; mocktails removed entirely. 💬 Let me know what you think — are these the right moves for Princess, or too many cutbacks?
