Thank you for helpful responses. If plane on time, we will arrive at SFO by 8am. Based on info, we will cancel transfer and take taxi hoping to arrive early

It seems that there can be long lines to board ships at San Francisco piers. If you take the Princess transfer from the airport to the pier, does that make the boarding process easier? Is your luggage taken from the bus directly to your room? Are your documents checked by Princess rep before arrival at pier? Thank you for info.

Thank you for response.

It seems that for any cruise over 16 days, a medically supervised covid test is required. Are we allowed to use a "zoom" test site and, if so, has anyone done so?

In response to the question "which class of ship": Grand Class. Older but I prefer because of the promenade deck.

Thank you for your response. My current trip is back to back with over 35 days at sea so I wanted a half covered balcony and such a cabin is not available on this class of ship unless you purchase a full suite. All the mini-suites are uncovered. Without club Class dining as an option, I simply booked and paid for many many nights at the Crown Grill etc. I would prefer the main dining room but the current system makes that less than desirable:

Approximately two weeks ago, I wrote Jan Swartz to express my frustration with medallion app: it went from green to blue; wrong cabin listed; unable to reinstall lost data; continue to receive message "there is a problem come back later..." Yesterday a Princess rep called to tell me that she had reviewed my file and the problems I outlined were as stated. She informed me that she has taken responsibility to get the problems fixed. I told her that my worry was that when the wrong info was removed and the correct installed, I would lose all my paid dining reservation as well as the daily main dining room times and locations. That had happened to me before - when I was "green" just by changing one dining time. Problem noted. During this conversation, I expressed my view that the new approach to dining should be dropped and the old method of early, late or anytime reinstalled. This new method seems to me not only to be confusing but is going to make each night feel like the first night aboard where people are. not sure where or when to dine. This current method doesn't make sense for the servers either as they no longer get to know and relate to those assigned to them. Not sure my view matters but I offered it regardless.

Not sure what is happening but when I log in I see an account that is not mine. In an effort to correct, I changed password but the same account came up showing all of the information pertinent to another person's account. Does anyone else have this problem?
