Princess Cruises Discount Gift Cards
How to use Princess Cruises gift cards
Princess Cruises gift cards can be used for your booking and onboard spending.
To pay for your cruise, call Princess Cruises at 1-800-774-6237 or log into princess.com. Select gift card as your payment method and enter the card number and PIN. You can use multiple gift cards on a single booking and pay any remaining balance with a credit card.
Onboard, visit the Guest Services desk and ask to load your gift card balance onto your onboard account linked to your OceanMedallion. Once loaded, it covers specialty dining, the spa, the casino, drinks, and shore excursions purchased through the ship.
Princess gift cards don't work on third-party booking sites. You need to book directly through Princess Cruises to use them.
How to check your Princess Cruises gift card balance
Use the balance check button above on this page. You can also check at the Guest Services desk onboard your ship.
What the savings look like
Check the current discount above. Princess cruises tend to be on the premium end, with Alaska and European itineraries running $3,000-8,000 per person. At those price points, the gift card savings can cover a couple of specialty dinners, a spa treatment, or a shore excursion.
Stacking with other discounts
Buy your Princess gift cards here at a discount, then use a credit card that earns bonus points on gift card purchases for another layer of savings. Combined, the total adds up.
Princess also runs their own promotions throughout the year. Things like free gratuities, onboard credit, and reduced deposits. Those are pricing promotions. Gift cards apply at the payment step, so they stack on top of whatever deal Princess is running.
Princess loyalty (Captain's Circle)
Princess' Captain's Circle loyalty program tracks your cruise history by days sailed. Your loyalty status and perks are not affected by how you pay. Booking with gift cards earns the same loyalty benefits as any other payment method.
What happens if you cancel
If you cancel a cruise paid with gift cards, the refund is typically issued back to the original gift cards or as a future cruise credit depending on the cancellation terms. Check Princess' cancellation policy on their website before booking.
Also cruising with Carnival or Holland America?
We carry discounted gift cards for Carnival and Holland America Line too. If you're comparing cruise lines or booking multiple trips, check those pages for current discounts. Each cruise line's gift cards are separate and only work for that specific line.
