It seems like it.  When running the numbers after the battle, the exp that the captain gains is the same as the exp gained that game.

isn't that true of any ship -> so there's no +50% for premium captain

no, captains dont get more xp on premium shipt than any other.  Obly if you are using flags, or the now "premium camouflage" 

 

Premium ships:

  • No research required
  • More credits for each battle
  • Elite status, allos the player to earn more Free XP
  • Assigning Commanders from other ships of the same nation without penalty or retraining

yup.. the XP received goes to the ship... captain and ship get that.. the ship gets any added 2x or 3x (or flags) and the Capt gets any capt flags xp...PRemium is just I think a bit more Free xp and can convert the XP for free xp

If you look at the provided free camouflage paint it provides a boost to exp, 30 or 50%, which is also captains experience.

The free camouflage you get with a premium ships gives you an appropriate ship bonus (e.g., detectability for destroyers) and a 30 percent experience bonus.

 

If you have had a premium ship for a while, make sure you are using this new free camo. New premium ships default to it, but you need to make the change for old premium ships.

 

EDIT: As noted below, tier VIII premium ships get a 50 percent experience bonus. (I don't have one, so I didn't know.)

Don't forget that premium ships do NOT suffer the retraining penalties normally incurred during retraining.  A captain in retraining will suffer a 50% penalty to experience gain during the retraining period on their new ship.  If you retrain on a premium ship, you won't have that effect applied (even though you're in retraining) AND you'll be able to use all of your captain skills at full efficacy also (normally halved during retraining).  This all adds up to very fast retraining without penalty. Of course you won't be accruing XP on your target ship during this time, but it's a small price to pay for such benefits.

Technically if you count the premium cammo which can be worth up to 50% more exp (atago for example) then yes it gets more captain exp as well, but this is just on a technicality.
