  1. If you are sharing the same room on the same account (credit card) you probably can. You can also use his account to pay for the excursions for both of you. I'd visit the customer service desk when you board to make sure
  2. Thank you for this. I would love to know what percentage of these “best booking volumes” are being deposited and paid for with non-refundable FCCs. Also in that report: Customer deposits increased $1.4 billion to $5.1 billion as of May 31, 2022 from $3.7 billion as of February 28, 2022. While those of us that cruise frequently may tend to use FCDs for deposits, on my recent B2B Alaska cruises out of Vancouver, a large percentage of these (over 2/3 of those on board on the return trip) were first-time princess cruisers who would have had to put down the full deposit. I've heard similar reports on other Princess ships sailing Alaska. While we missed the Captain's Circle gathering on the 2nd leg, I noticed that there were only about 20 people in the Platinum/Elite lounge on disembarkation morning. I see this as a potential positive note that former non-cruisers are now showing interest in getting out there
  3. On the Grand Princess about a week ago. I'd say we were at least 5 miles way... was very disappointing
  4. I did not get an email.... Did it have a link to see the CA fares? If so, Can you post the link? Thanks
  5. Princess ran a similar promotion a few months ago when the Diamond and Sapphire were announced to do Summer runs from LA/San Diego (This was before the Sapphire was postponed 'til September.) I was able to see the cheaper fares before I logged on, but lost them after I logged on. I tried to start the booking before I logged on, but still lost the better price. Bottom line, I had to call Princess to get the CA resident deal... which unfortunately went away when they postponed the Sapphire startup.
  6. Just disembarked the Grand after two weeks cruising from Vancouver to Whittier and back to Vancouver. First day the steward told us he was doing 2-a- day service. We didn't have to ask. We also got a paper Patter every evening We miss the chocolates. Hoping that might come back at some point
  7. My PVP left me a "Bon Voyage" voicemail and email both saying that I still need to bring the vaccination and negative test proof with me for embarkation. Possibly this is just because we cruise out of Vancouver, but, in any case, I'm sure you can just show the hardcopy info at the cruise terminal.
  8. Likely you can still get tested 3 days in advance (if you qualify) but can't upload the results until you're within 48 hours
  9. Note that Canadian Embarkations have slightly different testing requirements from U.S. departures Voyages that embark in Canada: Based on current Canadian requirements for cruising, all guests ages five and above will require a medically observed negative viral COVID-19 test result taken before boarding: Within 2 days for Antigen Within 72 hours for PCR https://www.princess.com/plan/cruise-with-confidence/cruise-health/frequently-asked-questions/us-cruises/
