Creator's Key Takeaways
Princess's new non-refundable refundable policy is now in effect and I'm going to let you know what I have seen about it so far.
A future cruise credit and a future cruise deposit are two very different things. They are not the same thing.
In my mind, it should not change the way that you book a cruise.
I think it's really important whether um no matter when your final payment is due that you have insurance.

We’re back home from our Star Princess cruise — and as of October 15, Princess Cruises’ new non-refundable deposit policy is officially in effect. 🚢 Today I’m showing you what I’ve seen so far: 💰 Real examples of how much refundable vs. non-refundable pricing differs. 🧾 How deposits and cruise fares now compare to Royal Caribbean & Celebrity. 🪙 The difference between Future Cruise Credits and Future Cruise Deposits (they’re not the same!). 🧭 Why booking early still matters — and when refundable may be worth the extra cost. 📅 Princess quietly changed their final payment window too: 90 days for shorter cruises, 120 days for 14+ day sailings. Plus, I’ll share how insurance fits into all this — and why it’s more important than ever to protect your cruise investment. 💬 I’d love to know: will these changes affect the way you book Princess Cruises moving forward?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!
