That's Crazy!

Do you think it will be midnight Eastern Time or Pacific Time since Princess is headquartered in Santa Clarita, CA? That could change the over/under.

Once it opens for MDR reservations on July 1st(???) you should be able to make MDR reservations if you are paid in full or Platinum or Elite. If you are not I would try anyway after it opens up, We booked ours normally 2 years out before the change took place. In fact, when the change was made in April our 2025 & 2026 MDR reservations were cancelled, so we are just waiting to book them again. You should be able to book Specialty Dining anytime.

I can't say I've tried it on every ship but I would think so.  It seems you have to turn the volume up quite a bit and it sort of has a delay from what you hear in the hallway.  Honestly I usually find it quicker and easier to just go open the door to the hallway,

Thanks, we'll try again next month on Discovery Princess Classic California Coastal.

Does that work on all Princess ships. We have tried it on Discovery, Emails, and Grand without too much luck. Maybe we're doing something wrong.  We have had it work on some Carnival ships, but not all.

Emails is supposed to be Emerald. I always forget to proof read.

Tune the TV to the Bridge cam and you can hear the announcements.

As stated in the previous method of applying for  Carnival Shareholder Benefits you should never include your account number. There are many ways to do this without linking your brokerage account. The Stockperks app works great. You just need to know how to use it wisely. It's 10 times faster than the old way of faxing and emailing. Good luck and we hope you get lots of OBC on your upcoming cruises. We will.

Thank you! We haven't cruised Princess since May And were unaware there was a change to arrival time selection. 

Did they intend to fix that you can't see all your upcoming cruises without logging in and out of each one?

We can't see how to choose our arrival time in the old or the new app. We used to be able to see it, but couldn't choose one until 60 days prior to cruise.

New App works awesome. You don't have to link your brokerage account. Screen print and download copy of your Brokerage statement. Basically the same as faxing or emailing. Took a couple days to confirm holdings ownership because we did it on the weekend. Once confirmed applied for Shareholder Benefits for two Princess Cruises. It only took three minutes from application time to receipt of confirmation email and OBC showing up on My Princess website for each cruise.

Do you know if they still have the Happy Hour on the Radiance? We were on the Miracle earlier this month and the said there were no Happy Hours for Red Frog Pub on that cruise.

Does anyone know where Elite and Platinum lounge is on the ship? Happy hour is usually 4:00 to 6:00.
