Yep just curious how it might be. You know how just trying to find a place to sit at the pool was so tough, hoping maybe a little easier than getting there at 8am

We are heading out this Saturday and just wondering if anyone has a best guess as to what to expect as far as passengers. I was told by Princess when I spoke last week should expect about 70%, just curious what everyone thinks. As we are used to the old days when it was sold out so anything less will be nice.

Thanks for the updates, keep them coming. I love the weather. When we lived in Delaware the snow storms were fun to track, but sure am glad to be in South Carolina now and don't miss the snow.

Headed out this weekend on the Sky and just wanted to see if anyone could give an update of what movies they have been showing recently?

I guess we will let you know what they are like on weekend and into Monday. But can always hope it gets better. 

NavArch64, Thanks for the info. Looks like it will be a good time, we are very much looking forward to it.

We are looking forward to it and even with a little motion as long as there is some sun there will be some fun. My mom always said when it was a bit choppy to have an extra drink or two and it would help you walk straight, lol

We are leaving 3/5 on Sky Princess out of Ft Lauderdale and the early seas report appear to be up to 9-12 ft especially after the first day. I know a lot can change before then. Of course our cabin is on Lido up top mid forward, I know motion little more than mid ship lower, but we were wanting to try to see what was like up by the pool deck. It’s been a while since we have cruised, if these seas are the case anybody recently experience and how was it? We don’t really get sea sick, just curious with the newer ships what to expect.

On the island does anyone know if you are still able to get WiFi connection from the ship? Lol, not that I need it, but was just wondering in case I made a FaceTime call to run it in. Also, does the drink package still apply here as well? 
And lastly anyone know if I ordered 2 drinks, say one for wife and one for me on the app would that be accepted? As I thought I understood you can only order one drink at a time.

Can anyone give us an idea what the menu options are what their experiences were like? We are on 3/5 and are looking to try it out for first time.

I have completed everything in the medallion app and we are in green lane, except of course the health questionnaire that is to be done I think within 48hrs. But see nowhere on app where to print out tags? Would that be in the cruise personalized?

That would be awesome and much appreciated. Maybe someone else will help you/us before you leave. Have a great trip. 

I have been connected to our home Wi-Fi and no luck and I have deleted the app and added it back at least 5 times and always the same, just goes to loading and never gets past that point. I’ll maybe try to call them back one more time but as we all know that means being on hold for hours. Would be disappointing to not have available on board. 

We are heading on our trip 3/5 and was just curious is anyone was recently on the Sky and could let us know some of the movies they were showing outside. That is always one of the fun things we look forward to each trip. Thanks

We leave in little over 2 weeks and on the app the MyDining portion will not load. When I tap it just spins loading. I called and talked to rep and he said I’m lucky as others have worse things happening. That’s great! I have deleted app and added back several times, no luck. My question is has anyone had this problem and then does it works once on ship? Sure would be nice to have to order a drink or some food while out of the room.

I will have the included Wi-Fi package. Have a iPhone and understand I am able to text other iPhones. But what about texting from my iPhone to someone back home that is on an android phone? Will that work or will I need to use the WhatsApp? 

This is our first time with the internet package included since we have the BSE package. Once on the ship do we turn our phone on airplane mode and then connect to the ship Wi-Fi. Are we able to send texts and make calls while at sea then? Honestly we probably won’t do much but nice to know to keep in contact with our dog sitter for our baby, lol.

Where did you get the clip?

We are under three weeks away and we are unable to access MyDining on the app. It just gets stuck on loading and always have to close and go back in and same always happens. Any ideas how to access, lol with trying to call.

I have not yet had to use the new ocean medallion. We leave in 3 weeks and have yet to pick a holder. The standard Lanyard will probably be what we at least start with. I assume you can get other options on the ship? My wife is leaning towards the sports band. Just wondering what most people find easiest and best way to carry them around. I was always used to just having my cruise card in my wallet. And then of course when we get off at a port what is best way you have found to keep your medallion safe.

We are planning on a trip in December on the Sky Princess. I have been on a few cruises but it’s been several years. We were looking at a cabin on the Lido deck mid forward or on Deck 15 mid-ship. Any opinion on these cabins and motion. I know both are high up and just wondered if mid ship even makes a difference at that point. We have never really had motion sick issues before but just questioning as we want to pick cabin soon.

When you get alcoholic or I guess any drinks, do they show up on you account meaning do I need to look at it all the time to ensure they are not charging me? Just trying to see if it’s tracked on my bill or if when you have package it’s just all included and not on there at all. Thanks

Does anyone know if you have a third person in the Lido mini suite can the sofa be used as the third bed or does there have to be a pull down bed as the option?

I am looking at either a Mini Suite or Balcony on the Lido deck and wanted to get some reviews of the rooms on this deck. Are they to noisy? Most importantly how is the motion? They look pretty nice for access to pools and Buffet which may be nice.  Thanks for any advice and input.

Thanks that would be great. Larrybritt2@gmail.com
