Your cost of "non-included" dining is going up...
Ombud replied to cruisedoctor's topic in Princess Cruises
So it's going from 17% to 18%? All this is over 1%? -
Recently off the Enchanted Princess & was told I couldn't trade for Rose only white or red wine. Anyone else run into this?

I used National Express Coach but then I only have 1 suitcase (23.5" with wheels)

Travel to Southampton from London Airports
Ombud replied to jajsmom's topic in British Isles/Western Europe
National Express bus direct from Terminal 2/3 also makes a stop at T5. Depending on which hotel you choose & amt of luggage, either walk (Moxy w/ carryon only) or uber. Uber was £5.68 from Moxy to port. That'll be a repeat for me Fall 2024 as well -
Transportation to the cruise port from Southhampton hotel
Ombud replied to IDL's topic in British Isles/Western Europe
Uber was £5.68 last September so why not just make it easy and do that? -
@MissP22 no. Actually the Patter was woefully incomplete as some thing were on the app / screens near elevators but not in the Patter. 1st time I experienced that FWIW I showed up 20 minutes early for Silliness but on time for the other shows. Of course for the Theater I was willing to have an aisle seat on Deck 6 so maybe that's why I could be late (try left entry and walk around 1st row .... right entry is very popular 🙃)

I liked it. Light hearted fun. No one left including those who were left standing and, in fact, it was the only production show that was repeated as not everyone could get in
-
As in with puppets? Yes, skits with Jim Henson's muppets and production members dancing
-
Thats how its been for me since they changed the program

As I've stated SO MANY TIMES, I don't care about wifi and last 2 times I traded the minibar for wine I still didn't drink it all! My blood sugar is much better without the mocktails so I do whats healthiest for me -- regular water As to fitness 'classes,' the piazza has zumba and other exercises all morning long. No sign up needed. I still don't do that .... just run up to Lido Deck (16) then back to my Emerald Deck (8) & I'm good!! Twice if necessary to work off the previous day's overeating (totally possible). Not at the same time, I'm not that fit So what would I get out of Plus / Premier? Gratuities at 60 instead of 16 .... or a different cruise line
-
There isn't a charge for regular (not bottled) water
-
Why?? Standard option is a perfect fit for me. I like to unplug, the tap water is fine, and just have coffee / tea with meals. You like Plus / I like Standard / why is my preference not good enough for me

I'm looking at the summer, enjoy your cruise! I sat at the raised bar so I had a perfect view!!

On the Enchanted (sister ship) the production Muppet show was in the Vista Lounge. Is there also one on the Discovery?

@dockhl after 3 maintenance crews tried to close the rear door (unsuccessfully) it was canceled. Then Alaska rebooked everyone on a flight into SeaTac arriving at 1am but failed to notify anyone, I would've taken it & spent today in Seattle. Love Seattle. Looking at a screen saying I could've even laid over in Portland (OR). Ah well. I'm back at the airport off to a 3 hr layover at O'Hara. With the same Xmas songs playing (over & over as nauseum) for a flight leaving in 4 hrs. Worst experience ever. No games on yet just 1 sound track. Hoping that changes soon --
