Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thanks for all of the GOOD information on this post. I decided NOT to load the APP and instead submitted the same paperwork that I would have sent Princess via email to: hello@stockperks.com on 12/19/2023 @ 10 am Received notice that the OBC was posted to our cruise on 12/19/2023 @ 10:50 pm less than 13 hours from request to posting best time ever Once again, thanks for the info, it was much better than using Princess.
  2. I have several new bookings and having the same problems the CS. Can I have my bookings transferred to my CVP?
  3. Prior to covid I had taken an Alaska cruise out of Vancouver but flew into Seattle (seatac). Princess had a transfer system from the airport to the ship that took about 3 hours including going through Canadian customs. Does anyone know if Princess is still offering that transfer service? I am planning to take another Alaska cruise out of Vancouver and would like to use it, it was very convenient.
  4. We are booked on this cruise , but I am second guessing that decision. I noticed that there are VERY FEW balcony rooms still available for this voyage (Princess website) when compared to the week previous and the 2 weeks after. Without actually counting, I would say there are 20 TIMES the number of balcony cabins available on those other weeks when comparing to May 7 voyage. What is up with this voyage: is Princess 'holding' a ton of rooms? is it some 'special' grouppy cruise that I don't want to be part of? does someone know something I don't? I would appreciate a response if you know why or if you just have a guess.
  5. We sailed on her earlier this year and I thought it's condition was terrible. Everything seemed dirty and old, the sailing wasn't very full so I asked to change cabins because of its condition, the second was just OK. The entire outside of the ship looked very rusty and old. If anyone has sailed on her in August, September or October I would appreciate your evaluation of her condition. Galveston would be a good port for us to use, but Ruby is the only offering.

  7. My wife doesn't drink alcohol but I do. The $50/day for me would be fine, but not worth it for my wife. When making the booking I saw no way for just one person to take Princess Plus and not the other. Can I some how add it to the booking for just one person?

  9. I am in the same boat, I have more than enough FCC to take a free cruise, maybe even 2. But if we take it at all, it will definitely be our LAST with Princess. If we go, it will be our 40th cruise with Princess. We started with Princess in 1995 and they have steadily gone downhill, but for us they have hit the bottom. We enjoy other cruise lines far better these days.
  10. In May on the Crown Princess (Seattle) I used the service that Princess was advertising to get our luggage from the ship to our home airport at not cost, it was called 'Port Valet'. Princess pushed it on the ship and it sounded good to me (no cost, no bother) so I decided to use it. My take away is that it was a DISASTER. The airlines blamed Princess and of course Princess blamed both the system and the airline. As it turned out, IT WAS ALL PRINCESS FAULT. I will never again use any luggage service where Princess is involved in any way. I will carry my luggage on the ship and be a 'walk off' taking my own luggage. It is a hassle, but I know I have my luggage.
  11. My wife and I were on the Crown (another word for 'ship that limps along'), we both wore our masks when indoors and high guest presence. I believe we were the only two who wore masks as guests. Of course the mask only protects others from you, not the other way around.. We both tested positive for Covid the day we returned home.
  12. I disembarked May 28 and received full OBC on July 6
