EDDY0827

I had heard the the Port of SF is doing maintenance work on all the piers to include new fenders/rubber bumpers dockside. Just lucky timing I guess that Pier 35 is down that day.

Thanks all. I'll fly. My concern for arrival is the delay in boarding for the inspections with basically no decent facilities to process arrival of new passengers. A waiting area.

I will be departing San Francisco from Pier 80, near Candlestick Point. From Google Earth, I don't see any dedicated parking for cruising. As this is a 1-way repo cruise to Vancouver, where do you park, SFO and Princess transfer or Uber/Lyft? The Grand is returning from Aus/NZ. Will it clear extended Customs and Coast Guard inspections in Hnl stop or SF? Should I brace myself for a zoo-like experience? I have a 3+/- hr drive. If parking is an issue, fly in? I have United service close by.

Yes, you can check in at your muster station first. As you check in with security when you first board, ask them for your muster location. Watch the video at a bar, eatery or anywhere. Super easy.

Call room service to change your selections. Selections may vary according to the ship supplies.

If it is a Princess excursion, I'm sure that they will get you aboard after your excursion regardless of the time of night or morning.

Yes

Buffet or door hang tag.

You pay double on your cruise fare and then the $60 pp/pd is added to that. Since you only have 1 person in the cabin, you are charged for 1 Plus package. Just bounce back and forth with your devices.

In the morning, use the hang tag for the door - FREE!

Room service- 24/7.

Anyone stop to think that maybe the staff member and the passengers were related?? Brother/ sisters or cousins or uncle and nieces? If this staff member was doing something that breaks the rules, I doubt that you would have seen it as often as you or your sons did. There could be other reasons for this besides nefarious ones.

Maybe just on the "old" boats, not on the "new" ships.

Videos are excellent, thank you!

IIRC, each seat has a folding table top that deploys out of the right arm rest. I don't know if this is true for all ships in the fleet.
