Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. That's what I'm worried about. I have Plus, and with so many people on The Sun Princess, I'm wondering if its' going to be hard to get into O'Malleys AND Alfredos.
  2. So for my upcoming trip on the Sun, O'Malley's has now shown up on the Princess App. (please note that Alfredo's has not shown up). When I try to book a reservation, it tells me that there is NO availability for the entire cruise. Does this seem right? I didn't think that the casual restaurants were taking reservations, and if they are, do you think this is a glitch that Alfredo's is not coming up and that O'Malley's doesn't have any open reservations? Thanks for your thougths.
  3. To add craziness to crazy, I'm thinking now of doing the Sun Princess from Athens to Barcelona. We were supposed to do that last year on The Enchanted, but had to cancel. So, I am now holding two reservations for next year, Alaska and Greece. I'll keep both for now while I make up my mind which one to do. If I decide to keep Alaska, I will then book Hubbards Glacier. Thank you all for the advice. Oh, and one last thing.....I ended up booking something totally different for Gibralter (will be going to St. Michaels cave in Gibralter which I am very excited about and then Aix-Proveno in Marsailles which I am really excited about now too. Soooo glad I booked the two Italy excursions months ago!
  4. I learned a good lesson on my upcoming Barcelona to Rome cruise this year. Book your excursions early. I was lucky as I grabbed two in Italy months ago, and now had a hard time booking for Gibralter and Marsailles. Anyway, with that in mind, we are sailing Princess in Alaska summer of 2025. This will be a repeat cruise. I'd like to book that special boat in Hubbards' Glacier ($299 pp YIKES!!!) now before we get locked out of that. Its the boat that takes you as far as it can go right up close. And yes, I've done the cruise before, but stayed on our ship and envied those that did the excursion. Am I crazy to book over a year in advance? My full payment isn't even due until next March 2025. What do ya'll think? Thanks.
  5. Hello. I booked a cruise in June of 2023 for this May. I booked the Princess Plus. The two casual dining are still not appearing anywhere. Every time I've called Princess (full disclosure, I haven't called them in a few months) they've assured me I still have the two dining casuals. Why can't I see it with my own eyes? Has anyone run into this and have cruised and did indeed have the two casual dining meals? Thanks.
  6. Would like to hear the good and bad about this? I've watched some videos but would like to hear down to earth opinions on the actual food.
  7. Thank you. I was started to wonder about Viator because as I did more research, I discovered that they were doing this on behalf of some other company, ...the name eludes me now but I thought it started with a D. As far as doing something on our own.....my whole exploration attitude started expiring about a year ago. I am now becoming a little afraid of wandering around not with a tour group. My husband and I are up there in age.... I wish I had done alot of this traveling a while back. My comfort zone right now basically rests with just Disney World, for what it's worth, lol.
  8. Marseille Shore Excursion: City Sightseeing Tour of Marseille. Has anyone done this? Is it worth it? It's only about $89 and 4 hours. I don't want any full day excursions and this trip will allow me to see Palais Longchamp which is the only thing I want to see in Marsaeille. I've heard that you need to walk very far to get to the Viator bus. Any thoughts? Also, does anyone know how often Princess "adds" additional excursions once it is sold out? Thank you.
  9. To clarify....I paid for Plus. I'm guessing I paid $120 a day (2 people) for a total of $840 back when I booked the cruise. To upgrade to Premiere, it looks like it might be around $500 additional now....and I am getting this by playing with the numbers online with a "fake" new booking on the same cruise I am on now.
  10. I just discovered that the increase going from Plus to Premium is sky-high. It wasn't like that before. I think for a 7 day cruise it would have only been about $280 for the two of us. Unless I'm doing something wrong, it's over $500 now.
  11. Hello. I am on the Sun in a few months. I have Princess Plus. I just paid $90 for a specialty dinner. If I upgrade to Princess Premiere, can I get that $90 credited back to my credit card. Thank you....
  12. same here. It's getting very annoying.
  13. To y'all who say we could make it....would you suggest the Princess Transfer, or a taxi. Are taxi's at the port that early in the morning? About how much would the taxi cost? The transfer I believe is about $79 per person.
  14. Astro Flyer: Wow! Thank you very, very much for your response. Exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you!!!!!
