Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»cruise to San Francisco with Princess Cruises
The total cost for an interior stateroom for two people on the three-day sailing is $877.98 or $438.99 per person. This breaks down to a per diem cost of $146.33.
Not only does that cost include your transportation on a beautiful five-star vessel, but it also includes meals, entertainment, snacks, and lodging. The only thing it doesn’t factor in is alcohol, but you may opt to purchase a drink package that can reduce the cost of your spending.
One-way airfare from San Francisco International Airport (SFO) to Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»International Airport (YVR) starts under $58 on select dates with Flair Airlines.
