Hmmm - mine has been charged less both times given no alcohol. Of course, I had to remind my TA to ensure my daughter was charged less.

She'll have the Plus package with the zero alcohol drinks package. She'll be charged a bit less for it. My daughter (14) has had it twice. She gets everything but the booze.

I absolutely agree Princess should have responded to you in a timely fashion. there's no excuse for that and I would be irritated, too.

Couldn't afford to buy real butter growing up, only used marjoram on bread....

Very smart to purchase the insurance. Hopefully, the policy references reimbursement for this type of bizarre situation. True - you have an incredibly story to share. Glad you made it home safely.

I'm really sorry this happened to you. I would be frustrated too - however, I don't see how MSC is at fault here. Just review your travel insurance policy and determine what, if anything, can be reimbursed.

Meant "wave" not "waive."

Nah - waiving to someone who is being left behind indicates a lack of something....perhaps a heart?

Bring one with you - a small, portable one.

What a wonderful review and utterly beautiful pics. You certainly have a wonderful eye for photography!

How could any ship have struck it? It was lit up like a Christmas tree. Something very wrong happened on that ship....

I'd do it now.

NO - you're not crazy. I've done the same thing in the past.

OP - I hope everything turns out okay regardless of what action you take. Being injured while on vacation is never fun.

I've done it with my daughter (26-transatlantic/Russia cruise) and it was great. I wouldn't hesitate.
