Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We have cruised with either Princess or Celebrity in the past but are looking at a cruise on Arvia (new out at the end of 2022) sister ship to Iona. I have quite a few questions so will list them in the hope that some of you kind cruisers will be able to help me with some of them. 1. We will be in a full suite - what extras do suite passengers get? 2. Which aft corner suite is best (are there different sizes of balcony depending on deck) as there is on both Princess and Celebrity 3. Do suite passengers have a different dining room or area or get priority dining options 4. How does P& O compare to Princess or Celebrity on food 5. Is it straightforward to book online and choose your own suite number 6. What is the dress code - and does everyone adhere to this - formal nights etc Many thanks for any help
  2. Thanks for your help. I think I will try emailing customer relations.Can't find anything in my spam folder.
  3. Could anyone tell me why I have not received an email from Princess to give feedback on our recent cruise. I have received this automatically in the past and have been able to name the crew who went above and beyond on our cruise and tell them our thoughts on the cruise. Can you ask for this from Princess or is it just a random email to some. Many thanks.
  4. Thanks everyone for all the help. Good to read everyone's routine on embarkation day - 9 days to ours!!!
  5. Have been reading that one of the main dining rooms is open on embarkation day and we are going on Sky Princess in a couple of weeks and not a problem and understand it's usually the Estrella. As we are suite passengers just wondered if the Club class dining is open for lunch. Don't expect it will be and not a problem just wondered. Anyone been on Sky recently and know if the menu for that lunch is the same as has been posted here for other ships and whether it opens at 11.30 or 12.
  6. Could anyone tell me if Princess provides shuttles from the port in Madeira (free or otherwise) into Funchal. The walk is apparently 15-20mins slightly uphill and I have a few mobility issues so was just wandering what options there was. Thanks
  7. Many thanks for your good wishes - yes she will be sadly missed.
  8. They just ask if you have taken one with negative result (not supervised) so long as you have full vaccinations (two doses and booster) with proof. Someone has posted on here today live from Southampton on his embarkation and stated he was just asked if he had taken an antigen test with a negative result - no proof needed
  9. In July we were on Celebrity and they still do the cards - just asked at Customer Services - maybe if you ask they may have them but don't advertise the fact
  10. We are UK based and cruising out of Southampton in October and understand from Princess that we just have to "attest" (tell them) that we have taken an antigen test and it was negative so long as we have proof of all our vaccinations ie two doses and a booster. There is a posting on here today from someone embarking in Southampton and he says that is exactly what has happened.
  11. Have filled in all the details on the app to get to green status - my husband is showing as green but my photograph has been accepted but has an exclamation mark on it and my status won't go green. I have tried re-taking my photo but keeps saying "wrong format etc etc" I suppose I'll just have to wait for embarkation for them to sort it
  12. Have been on both Celebrity and Princess and been very happy with both and feel they are similar in many ways. Celebrity is more expensive but does include drinks, wifi and gratuties and so needs to be considered. Also we have found we can have a full suite on Princess for the price of a mini suite on Celebrity but if you have a mini suite on Celebrity it does include the Retreat lounge and sun deck and Luninea restaurant. We found no problems with the food on either ship but food is a personal choice but certainly had no complaints. The staff on both were very friendly and efficient. Embarkation went smoothly and quickly with both. I think you will be just as happy on Princess as Celebrity - we certainly were.
  13. Can you send large items to be dry cleaned such as jackets or suits?
