Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thank you everyone. Some great advice
  2. On the Princess cruises website it says Login or Register to create an account. Log In or Create an Account - My Princess - Princess Cruises Just wondering if there is any real benefit in doing this with as they say special offers as everything else can be done using the booking number. Really don't want loads of spam
  3. I've been on several Princess cruises now and never needed to sign up with Princess before as its possible to do everything on the app or using the booking reference to access the cruise personalizer. I'm just wondering what the benefits are to registering, it says special offers but the cynic in me wonders how special those offers are likely to be. Can you give me your views at tho whether its worth registering. TIA

  5. Room service is not always complimentary for Plus and Premier. if you have 2nd class plus or premier pre Dec 22 you are treated the same as Standard. Always complimentary is for 1st Class plus and premier 60/80
  6. This doesn't only affect standard fare folk, some of us bought plus and premier late last year and we don't get any of the new stuff despite buying the package.
  7. Yes that was what I believed was correct that the drink price had increased. Should not be different in the UK it would cause mayhem with the multiple international guests. Hope your right that the info just hasn't been vetted. On Sky for the 1st cruise that these new upgrades start on so fingers crossed.
  8. I booked last year and have Original Plus and believed that only the new additions were not now included. Drink prices were supposed to be up to $15 increased from the previous $12 which was confirmed by cruisers when the change took effect. Today the previously upgraded plus and premier have been upgraded again and apparently these new upgrades are also excluded as we booked a year ago. In the new terms and conditions they now state the following for Original Plus "The Plus Beverage Package included in the Original Princess Plus Package includes all beverages priced up to $12.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s). " and for Original Premier "The Premier Beverage Package included in the Original Princess Premier Package includes all beverages priced up to $18.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s)." then this Upgraded Princess Plus Package Terms: *The Plus Beverage Package included in the Upgraded Princess Plus Package includes all beverages priced up to $15.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s). Upgraded Princess Premier Package Terms: *The Premier Beverage Package included in the Upgraded Princess Premier Package includes all beverages priced up to $20.00 USD each as listed on Princess’ menu(s). So are they now downgrading what has been on offer since the original upgraded version?
  9. Maybe browse wifi will be ok for me, do you know if you can Whatsapp call someone on browse?
  10. If it's not good in Yacht Club what hope is there for the rest of the ship!
  11. HI I am thinking of booking a cruise on VIrtuosa to Iceland and Norway which is 14 nights. I have previously only been on the Virtuosa during the pandemic for a weeks British Isles cruise where there were only 1000 passengers onboard. I am a little concerned if I would enjoy the trip as much with over 5000 people onboard and would like some views please on how the ship is with so many passengers. Can you still comfortably use venues? When sailing from the UK what is entertainment like etc are there any differences to sailing from other countries.. What are MSC excursions and shuttle buses like. I would need Wifi and would like peoples views on which is the better package, browse or browse and stream. How well do both these wifi packages work, especially in Northern Europe. Thank you in advance any views much appreciated.
  12. Last update I had was beginning of the month, nothing available to update so I assume it is. maybe its different being in the UK
  13. I booked our two premium Speciality meals on the app, it showed 0.00 but it still says you have dining credit when I go into DMW .
  14. Hi we have Premier but on the packages section of the app it doesn't show anything regarding the Juice bar, Premium desserts or Fitness classes yet these are supposed to be covered as we booked in March after the additions.
  15. Thank you for that, I have checked the cruise personalizer and along with the invoice it notes the 4 devices per person. I will follow your advice and do a mock booking, good to know you can book or bail. If everything shows as correct except for the app I suppose it is ok to presume it can be sorted once onboard if it doesn't in the app before, pain to have to waste precious time at guest services though.
