  1. Haven't logged in for a few weeks. Went to log in today and keep getting password error - tried a couple times using Chrome and once using Edge. I am entering the correct password. If others are having issues I will wait a day or two before attempting again.
  2. Just back and the train from Waterloo Station to Southampton central couldn’t have been easier. Walked from the park plaza Westminster to Waterloo station with luggage in about 10 mins or so. Boards show all departures and what platform the train will arrive on. We got to the station early to find our way around but was very easy. Luckily our Sunday train not impacted by any strikes occurring before and after Sunday. Took a cab to the room2 hotel and the next morning walked over to the cruise terminal. Cab ride was 10 pounds (for three of us with luggage). Cab was more than the train ticket. Easiest embarkation ever. Was on the ship and eating lunch by 11:30
  3. We did drive near Windsor castle but could only see the top of it in the distance. The guide mentioned that they usually go closer but there wasn’t time

    London Day Pass

    Just returned from a cruise where we spent 3 nights in London prior to our cruise. You do need to do a lot of planning and make sure you group what you want to do to cut down on travel time. We saved a bundle but we hit the ground running upon our arrival. Left Toronto Wednesday night and arrived in London 10:30 am. Took the Elizabeth line and jubilee tube line to the hotel. Luckily a room was available if not they would have held our luggage. Headed to Westminster Abby waited in a small line to get in. Walked to Buckingham palace to enter the Queens Gallery. Next morning went to the Tower Of London then London Bridge experience (informative and fun but we love haunted houses so the trip to the dungeons was great) then to tower bridge and the engine room quick lunch at borough market at 6:00 pm did the Jack the Ripper tour. Last day Kensington Palace rode the Uber boat on the Thames from one end to the other then up the Shard. Was well with it for us was glad our first day on the cruise was a sea day
  5. Just back from a cruise and stayed in London for 3 nights. Walked to the Waterloo train station was very easy. Booked when the tickets became available for a great discount. Believe I paid 14 pounds per ticket. Took a taxi for 10 pounds to our hotel - room2. In the morning waked to the terminal. On board and eating in Alfredo’s by 11:30. Easiest embarkation ever. It helped that 95% of the passengers were from The UK and had to wait to get their medallions
  6. Just returned from a cruise and took this excursion. We were dropped off at terminal 2 Hilton Gardens before 2. Stayed one night before flying home. It must be popular as there were three groups ours we had to meet in the theatre at 7:15 and two others at 7:45. I don’t know why were were picked for the earlier one as we weren’t flying home till the next day. I received a letter stating which group we were in and had to fill in our flight times. I’m sure I could have changed it at guest services but didn’t want t mess things up. We were a bit delayed as on the way back from Stonehenge a tree had just fallen in front of us blocking the road and were stuck for about 30 mins
  7. Great idea, I'll order one and ask them to hold the candy, hold the brownie, hold the whipped cream, hold the sprinkles ..... and get gelato.
  8. Thanks !!! Tried it on my iPad that I am bringing and can log each one in with name booking number and birthdate
  9. We all have the premium package so wifi is no issue. Will get my daughter to download the app on her phone. Husband won’t bring his so will use one device for his login and one for mine. Will try creating accounts for them for our booking. Leave next week for our first Princess cruise and can’t wait
  10. There are three of us travelling, me, husband and adult daughter. I do all the bookings for trips and have the app on my phone and ipad, they do not and probably won't be bringing there phones. I can see my account and will be useful when checking number of drinks ordered. How do I see their accounts. Do I need to setup a login for each of them?
  11. Sounds good since if we don't go back on Princess, we can get the money back. We would be booking a 7 day cruise in a mini suite so for each 100.00 that we purchase would receive 50.00 OBC. Would probably buy 4 or 5 in total. I book online and in Canadian dollars and lately the deposit, well during a special, works out to be about 400.00 Canadian for the three of us. Since all three of us will be travelling but only me doing the booking, can I use the FCDs that are in my name and also my husband's name when booking? The OBC would be in US. Again I assume I can book online, but the wording in the post above states through your Travel Advisor or CVP.
  12. I read many posts but am still confused. We are sailing for the first time on princess next month, there are three adults in the room (me, husband and adult daughter). We already have a Norwegian Fjords cruise booked with Celebrity in May 2025 but am thinking of a Princess Caribbean cruise for 2026. How does the onboard cruise credit work - Assume (again only assuming from posts that I have read), we can purchase for 100.00 a future cruise credit and can use it to book a cruise within one year. Now is it that we book it within one year (so book by April 2025) but can be for a cruise in 2026? With this we get a 150.00 OBC? Since there are three of us we book a mini suite. Assume (lots of assumes here), we can only do one - so 100.00 that can be used for a future deposit and get one 150.00 OBC.
  13. Same question from me - looked at all drink menus online but no prices for Good Spirits. Does anyone know if they fall into the Plus or Premier package.
  14. Thanks!!!! Think I will purchase it now. Best case prices go down and I cancel and rebook. Prices could always go up before then so will be safe from that.
  15. My cruise isn't until 2025 but I know I want to upgrade the drink package for the three of us in the room. When I log in it always shows - save 5%, today it says save 10% (which is only a dollar or two difference). If I book it, I assume that I have to pay for it on my credit card when I book. If there is a lower price later - do I call to have it reduced or do I cancel and rebook right away.
  16. I’m from Canada and they had the little shark ducks at a store called party city.
  17. I'm boarding the Sky next month with a bunch of ducks dressed as sharks, small but couldn't resist them.
  18. Me too has been like this since March 1. Pricing a cruise for 2026 and wanted to see price changes. Looking at both Princess and celebrity but not ready to book yet. Clearing cache/cookies/history doesn’t help. Also tried different browsers and devices.
  19. Same here. Canadian and it’s been like this for days. Can pick a cabin but then receive the error. Cleared cache/cookies/history used different browsers devices and incognito.
  20. Yes, the past two days can't get past picking a cabin. Says We were not able to continue to the next step. Please try again or revisit us later this evening. Have been getting that for the past two days, cleared cache/browsing/cookies, tried different browsers, tried different devices and incognito. Not booking right now but comparing cruises for 2026 on princess and celebrity. Going on princess in two months, celebrity next year and 2026 comparing right now. Haven't cruised since 2014, once on NCL, three times on Celebrity, looking forward to Princess Sky right now.
  21. Guess what.... a 'sale' has started on the excursions. Most went back to regular (pre-increase) prices. One stayed 20.00 more. Sale runs until Feb 25th
  22. I just booked the Apex for 2025 last week any time dining. I received an email to book my dining. When I went to the website and looked at anytime dining more info it said I must prebook the dining. Not sure when I want to eat this far put but guess I can book and change times or just show up and expect I may need to wait.
  23. I want to see if I can order it without the blue cheese, would prefer a different cheese but would take it without cheese if I had to. I've tried to like blue cheese but just can't. Maybe I'll order the black and blue soup, hold the Jack Daniels, hold the cheese, hold the onions........
  24. Using the web version, I was able to enter my address and it would save it but it kept saying address not found or something like that when I tried to continue. Figured it was the address verification program that they use so tried Crt vs Court and a few other variations. Got out and went back in - looked at the order and my address was there, hit the place my order and received my confirmation. Another wonder of Princess IT programming. I have stayed away from the app after it screwed up my dining reservations and now only use the web version till I get on the ship.
  25. Most excursions will allow up to 45 people on one bus but website will always show 20 spots. I have been tracking almost daily and only one excursion has gone down with spots available. With the price increases expect they are getting ready for a ‘sale’. Princess has been the worst for call centre questions. One excursion with two options both same start times one 30 mins longer and 40 dollars more. They have no idea why. Another excursion states that it is a full day but time is only 4 hours again no clue. I usually do private excursions and now I know why.
