Has anyone had to wait over two months to receive a deposit refund? I asked for it before final payment and I filled out the cancellation form, which Princess acknowledges.

I will be on Discovery June 15th, 2024. I will be sailing alone so wouldn't mind being seated with others. The app lets me choose dining with others on 1 or two nights but on other nights it automatically selects private table. Anyone know why this is?

Thanks! And all the items on the card are no charge?

Anyone have a picture of the free breakfast door hanger card?

I notice something missing from some of these posts. How many of you put your travel date down when you applied? I ask because I am seeing some waiting for months to get their passport. That makes sense if your travel dates are months away. And those leaving within a few weeks may rightfully be getting priority.

Correct. The Deluxe Obstructed have sofas. DW. They are longer from entry door to balcony so room for a sofa. I think it would give more privacy to both.

Cabin E425 has opened up. Called my agent and I hope he is quick enough to get it .🙂 One thing I have noted is that Discovery is unique from others in this class because it has some white steel canopies covering the promenade, so you could say it is a bit more "obstructed" as far as seeing the water surface from the balcony

Identical to my experience. Got it in early June and have still not received my old passport.

Thanks. Maybe it will be able to do it closer to the cruise which is a little less than a year away. Strangely enough, I am able to get my chosen profile picture added. Just wish I could get that same photo to stick for boarding and security.

I hope I am staying on topic, but is anyone else having problems getting their check in photo accepted on the app?

E432

Enjoying all the reports ! Thanks! I searched pictures and ended up choosing E432. Its "obstruction" consists of an extra wide promenade deck below. No problem. It has a nice extra deep balcony so it's all good.

Thanks for all the replies ! Unfortunately, they are already taken for my cruise. 😞

Which is the best of the obstructed view balcony cabins on Discovery Princess? Or it's sister ships? Thanks!

That’s awful and what I feared they would do to me. I was told 60 days by Princess. Maybe you should call back and get a different answer,as happened to me on a separate matter.

Yay……it finally got switched today. I was getting nervous about missing the current good pricing. I just saved $550 making the switch. Still think it would be more professional to receive an email notification that Princess received my request.

Thank for all of your responses. Princess instructed me download the form, fill it out and sign it. Then email it to them. They said aTA can’t do that for me. I guess I will wait a couple more days and further explore what’s going on if I don’t see a change online. Have the TA check on it too.

I have received the form to switch from booking directly with Princess to a TA. I filled it out and sent it in to the email address listed on the form. Is it typical that they don't send an acknowledgement that they have received it? I sent a second email to ask if they got it. No response. Called Princess and they didn't have an answer, even with the help of a supervisor. Does anyone know of a direct number to call that department? And finally, how long does it typically take for the switch to happen? Thanks for any help.

Right.....So Irving. Texas may be the key to the quickness. I am in Arizona , sent into Philidelphia, as per instructions, and it was shunted to Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Don't know if it actually made a difference, but I appealed to my US Representative and received my passport in two days less than 5 weeks, two days before my departure. The overnight shipping said Portsmouth, New Hampshire,

There seems to be something about Florida. I seem to recall others that went through there got them much faster than the rest of the country.

Wow….. I thought the strings were fantastic. There was one piece where they did a long staccato in perfect unison…. It was awesome! I listened to them whenever possible.

I am booked with Princess and have a hold on a HAL cruise. I was going to "sell" my friends on joining me on the HAL based a great part on LC . Now with the disappearance of classical on HAL, my decision is to stick with my Princess booking. So sad.

I see the Sky Princess has a table and chairs in similar forward facing cabins. Strange the Discovery never shows it that way.

I a taking a 25” x 18” suitcase.

I have done a lot of searches for pictures and videos of non- balcony forward facing cabins. Not one has shown a small table in one. In fact, the lack of a table is specifically mentioned in some videos. I guess there is always a chance that could change, I suppose.
