The cynic in me is wondering if they shortened the length of time for these.I find it strange that the Castaway Cay massages are going down in price...not that I'm arguing with it lol!

Except the user was responding to you saying the $40 brunch is sill a good value compared to land restaurants. You can’t compare value with land restaurants though because you’ve already pre-paid for cruise food. $40 isn’t the cost of a brunch, it’s the cost of “a better brunch”.
It’s relvant to the discussion since it goes to the value of the price increase.
However, most people will occasionally go to lunch/brunch/dinner at home even though they have already paid for those meals in their grocery shopping...

We just returned from a Princess cruise and found the food in the main dining room much improved over past cruises. And almost on par with (at least) the Crown Grill onboard.As we already do now , we will be using our free Palo credit only. It seems like the cruise industry is moving towards specialty restaurants at an additional cost rather than focus on the dining that is included with the cruise. I fear that one day all dining will be an extra cost which will probably end our cruising vacations.
I'm glad my booking window opened on the 12th and I booked my Palo brunch then. I'll have to check to make sure I get charged the $30 for booking prior to today instead of the new price.
I'm curious to know how they would know which pricing you would get? If we booked before the increase and should be getting the old price, yet sailing during the new price....
The difference being, the reservation you already have was booked when the price was $30 (so that's what's being charged). Any new reservation you make would be $40.Booked in January on the Magic and had already reserved Palo. The reserved booking shows the $30 price, but when I looked at booking a new dinner reservation, it shows the fee of $40. I have sailed before when there has been a price change in something (dining, beverage tastings, etc) after I booked. I have always gotten the original price.
Very grateful we are Platinum and will be using our "free" Palo dinner. I was considering trying brunch again on a future sailing, but now, nope.
You can use the free meal for brunch. It doesn’t say that but they allow it.

Hmm, for larger families like mine this is feels like a good excuse to try out a minnie van transfer. In fact, if you have 6 people in your party, the cost is pretty much the same for bus ($234) and minnie van ($240).
