Cruise is paid for, but would love to use these cards to pay gratuities and such. You can email the gift card rather than snail mail a hard card. But what I'm hearing from you guys is that I have to wait until onboard to apply? Sad.

We are leaving on our cruise in two weeks. I have $900 in Amex gift cards that princess has already said they won't accept as pre-payment. I can buy princess gift cards with them. I can't find a way to apply the princess gift cards to our account. Anyone know a way? Or will I need to apply a bunch of cards when we get onboard?

Thanks for your help!

They also opened it up to HAL Employees and Vendors and their families. Basically a Shake Down cruise with one port or Croatia. Actually I know of a Business Dev. Rep that will be boarding on the 3rd, they are coming on board for their Annual Meeting. They board in the ship yard. The Koningsdam will actually arrive in Civitavecchia on the 7th and dock over night and the HAL Employees and invited guests will disembark the morning of the 8th. My understanding for the pre-cruise it will be a full ship. The Premier Cruise on the 8th is the first revenue cruise.

So interesting!! Thank you for the info!

Captain Albert said in his latest blog that guests would be coming aboard on April 4. We are on the "Premier Voyage" that leaves April 8. Who will be on board from the 4th until the 8th?
