The following estimates are based on two guests sharing one cabin and hotel room. Final pricing will depend on cabin availability, airfare, hotel rates, and the final number of travelers participating in the group transfers.

These estimated totals include:

• Seven-night Mediterranean cruise
• Three nights at a three-star hotel in Rome
• Two nights at a three-star hotel in Athens
• Shared group transportation from the Rome airport to the hotel
• Shared group transportation from the Rome hotel to the cruise port
• Shared group transportation from the Athens cruise port to the hotel
• Shared group transportation from the Athens hotel to the airport
• Estimated Main Economy airfare from Chicago or Indianapolis, where shown

Hotel estimates are based on approximately $250 per room per night in Rome and $200 per room per night in Athens. Group transportation is estimated at $125 per person.

Airfare estimates are based on approximately $1,350 per person from Chicago and $1,500 per person from Indianapolis.

All prices are planning estimates based on double occupancy and are subject to change until reservations are confirmed. Travel insurance, optional excursions, meals during the land portion, gratuities, and personal expenses are not included.

LIMITED TIME PROMOTION: Princess Plus included or $100 OBC per cabin

For two guests, an Interior stateroom starts at $2,208 total, or $1,104 per person.

Interior is the most affordable option and works well for travelers who plan to spend most of their time exploring the ship and destinations.

For two guests, an Oceanview stateroom starts at $2,982 total, or $1,491 per person.

An Oceanview provides natural light and a window view. The two-person price is approximately $387 more per person than an Interior.

For two guests, a Balcony stateroom starts at $3,528 total, or $1,764 per person.

A Balcony is only about $273 more per person than an Oceanview on this sailing. For that difference, you receive private outdoor space for morning coffee, fresh air and Mediterranean views.

The Balcony offers the strongest upgrade value on this sailing. It is a noticeable jump from Interior, but only $273 more per person than Oceanview.

*The current reduced-deposit promotion is $99 per person for the first and second guests only. Princess calculates the required deposit for third and fourth guests during booking, so their exact deposit cannot be confirmed until a stateroom is selected.

Prices were checked in Agent Power on August 27, 2026, using cruise-only pricing from Indianapolis. The lowest available categories vary by occupancy, and the displayed fares require a nonrefundable deposit. Pricing and availability can change until a reservation is confirmed.

For budgeting, I recommend using:

That equals approximately $575 per person based on two guests sharing a room.

These are reasonable planning estimates for well-located 3-star hotels in early October. Current averages are about $142 for Rome and $181 for Athens, but central locations, group requirements, breakfast, and 2027 price increases can push rates higher. (Rome data, Athens data)

Optional Pre- and Post-Cruise Hotel Stays

For guests who would like more time to explore, I am arranging optional hotel accommodations for three nights in Rome before the cruise and two nights in Athens following the cruise.

Estimated hotel cost:

• Rome: Approximately $250 per room, per night for three nights
• Athens: Approximately $200 per room, per night for two nights
• Estimated total: $1,150 per room, or approximately $575 per person based on double occupancy

Hotels are expected to be comfortable, conveniently located 3-star properties. Final hotels and pricing will be announced once group quotes are received. Rates are estimates only and may change based on availability. City taxes may be collected separately by the hotels.

Chicago (ORD) to Rome (FCO) and Athens (ATH) to Chicago (ORD)

Estimated airfare includes anticipated taxes and fees. Baggage, seat selection, and fare restrictions vary by airline. Premium Economy refers to a separate premium cabin, not extra-legroom Economy seating. Business Class pricing assumes lie-flat seating on the transatlantic portions.

Current averages place Premium Economy to Rome around $1,936 and Business Class around $4,512, with nonstop Chicago premium-cabin fares sometimes considerably higher.

Indianapolis (IND) to Rome (FCO) and Athens (ATH) to Indianapolis (IND)

Estimated airfare includes anticipated taxes and fees. Baggage, seat selection, and fare restrictions vary by airline. Indianapolis itineraries will require at least one connection. Premium Economy or Business Class generally applies to the long-haul international flights; domestic connecting flights may be in Economy or Domestic First Class.
