Mavkenzie1, thank you, very valuable advice. My agent is telling me all this, may speak to Princess myself.

Pam In Ca, thank you so much. Your the 3rd person to say this now. Actually my TA is telling me this information that I’m questioning.Maybe I should contact Princess directly. Your right, this does not make sense.

Suzanne123,

Thank you so much. Your the 2nd person to say this. Hope I get more feedback. Good idea, I may call Princess myself instead of getting this info just from my travel agent.

Hi, I paid a future cruise deposit, booked a short cruise using the $100 deposit only to date. I wish to book a different cruise, cancel the one I have booked (4 days) for a 28 day cruise instead. Will Princess let me transfer the deposit over to the cruise I wish to now book? Or will I lose the $100? ( no big deal if so )

Also, next problem. The 28 day cruise, my hubby wishes to join it not from the start, but 14 days in so joining me the last 14 days. They say he will be charged for the whole trip, no discount for joining after 14 days. This I understand, no problem there. But looks like they want me to pay single supplement for the whole 28 days, so charge me double in other words. So the cruise cost will then total as if 3 people booked, not 2. Is this correct? This cruise leaves LA, goes to Alaska then Japan, Korea and China . Hoping someone can help. Appreciate your time in advance.

Hi Diane.in.ny

Sorry, but what do you mean by contacting a brick and motar travel agent? The 28 day cruise is from LA up to Alaska then down to Japan,Korea and China.

Your correct, they start with different numbers so should be able to do,it but can’t.

[uote=whogo;55063918]Strange. I thought Visa card numbers started with the digit 4 and MasterCard with 5 with the rest of the number identifying the issuer and the account number with the last digit a check number.

You are correct, that’s why they should realise it’s a visa.

Hi, just booked my first Royal Caribbean cruise out of Sydney Australia and having a terrible time adding my credit card to my online check in details. It keeps saying it’s an invalid card which it is not. It’s a Visa card and when I start to type the numbers, the visa sign lights up but half way through typing it’s switches to the MasterCard sign which lights up then I get the invalid message.i even rang Royal Caribbean and they say it’s a Mastercard when he tried to do it for me! I can read my own card and it’s definitely Visa. Do not own a Mastercard. Any ideas why this may be and how to rectify it, so frustrating. Sailed with Princess many times and never a glitch.

Thank you so much, saw that time also but was not sure. Wonderful help, appreciated.

Hi, hoping someone can help. I am sailing with Princess on the 13th May on a British Isle cruise. The ship docks on the first day of it's 2 day stay at Dublin at 5.30am. Does anyone with experience on Princess know how early they will let you disembark to do your own thing in Port. I am hoping to do an excursion with a company in Dublin but will need to be at their office very early.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me ASAP as I sail in two days, if I can use my Australian hairdryer safely on the Sea Princess sailing from Perth Australia to Asia. I was told I can't use it, only charge cameras etc from the Australian socket on this ship. My travel agent said I could use it, so I have no idea what to believe. Should I take my American hairdryer that I have which I use when travelling in the States? Hoping someone can help that has had experience on this ship.

Hi,

Can anyone tell me ASAP as I sail in two days if I can safely use my Australian hairdryer on the Sea Princess sailing from Perth, Australia to Asia. If so, is the power the same as if at home? Or should I take my American hairdryer ( I have one as I travel to the States often from Sydney Australia ) I have been told various things so would appreciate feedback from someone that's had experience in this situation.

Hi, Hoping some lucky person has sailed on Island Princess, Coral Princess and Star Princess ( yes all three) as I'm hoping to do the Alaskan cruise and wanted feedback on all three. I have read reviews, and many have mentioned Novo Virus on the Star numerous times.

Which is newer inside, how are the restaurants? I noted Coral has Crown grill where others do not I think. Im not into bistro food so feedback on the Anytime dining and specialty restaurants would be fantastic.

I'm in my early 50's and very fit so don't need to worry about lifts, stairs etc.

Early September 2017 is when I'm thinking of going, so might I still see bears and wildlife ?

Is one ship more lively than the rest as I'm hoping for fun.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Hi, I'm interested in booking a cruise to Alaska but am having trouble deciding which Princess ship to choose. Star, island or coral. Hoping someone may have been lucky enough to sailed on all three to help me decide which one to book. Thanks in advance.
