thank you for sharing your voyage & all the interesting details, just booked on the Discovery (not until 2024, but never too early to start dreaming) -
Semi-Live - Discovery - CA Coastal - Oct 1, 2022

we just got off the Sapphire & they had the fennel shrimp salad several days so it's not off the fleet-wide menu like some of our favorites--hopefully it will show up for you soon -
they did have Stanley Bears on the Sapphire (also Cherry, the pink girl, which they said only a few ships had--we did not get one as 3 are enough to travel with & Ruby did not want a pink sister, she likes being the special girl in the family) & they had the smaller ones: a birthday one with a party hat & a cupcake dressed body & one holding an I love you heart. They did not have any Stanley key chanins, but had some magnets. We found Stanley USB drives in the photo shop, they are adorable so we got 3!! (we had extra OBC we needed to spend)

Can you pick embarkation time with medallion ship

that is nice, when we sailed in January it was very close to boarding...which was stressful -
Can you pick embarkation time with medallion ship
travelin.sisters replied to 1cruiselvr's topic in Princess Cruises
Note that the ability to pick a boarding time does not show up on the app until shortly before you sail...maybe 2-3 weeks -
Home Again With very little ground to cover we were floating into the harbor very early. And were turning to corner into our pier before 6am. Enjoyed a nice breakfast in the buffet & went down to check our statement & cash out our last little bit of OBC as I had calculated wrong & we didn’t spend it all. I got there before the lines formed & was able to help a passenger on her first cruise who had missed all the information on disembarkation. That reminded me of all the things I didn’t know on my first few cruises & all the things I have learned from people in CC & other cruising groups. They didn’t post a platinum/elite disembarkation lounge, but when I asked, they said we could go to the Suite longue. It was not crowded & disembarkation was going so rapidly, that we just waited in the wheelchair spot with my BIL. Off the ship before 9 & home shortly after. This certainly wasn’t my favorite ever cruise, but it was enjoyable with many good moments & we are glad we sailed on the Sapphire. It is however, always good to get back home to your own bed & space.

Medallion holders buy on board or pre cruise
travelin.sisters replied to greymom3's topic in Princess Cruises
I was shocked that my sister had to buy a large of that gold bracelet as she has fairly small wrists, it also was hard for her to put on & remove so I would recommend waiting until you can try it (you will also save the shipping) ...they will send you a free lanyard & holder you can use until you get on & can try. I also bought an assortment of i-tag holders on Amazon, they will fit the Medallion, but the decorative metal ones interfered with reading the Medallion, so I am sending one back, the plastic & latex ones were fine, very inexpensive & cute.
