Eurodam April 29 - May 6 AK was new menu. I'll post it if I can find it.

Not able to provide, but would like to know where they found the info when someone does post. I always call and ask, so you can do that, but would love to be able to just look it up and be spared the hold time. Personally, I like deck 5 for proximity to MDR but prefer to be more centered on the aft, so 6214 is better for that. Tough choice, but think they're both good. Safe travels, enjoy your cruise!

@MeganGC1983 love the wake views! Do you have an aft cabin or is that from a public space?

50% is like you've already had your first lottery win!! Enjoy!

@Denise T congrats on the bingo win and finding the ducks! Will you keep the ducks or rehide them? Safe travels home. Glad you made some good memories w/your siblings.

Thanks @Dreamscaper and sorry for your experience and frustration. while I'm familiar w/Guarantees, I haven't seen them as the only option. I have always had the choice between selecting a specific cabin or letting Princess assign as a Guarantee. Perhaps the ship is near capacity so that was all they were offering. Just a thought. Again, sorry your experience is not off to a good start. I hope you get it straightened out and have a fabulous cruise. FWIW, we love the aft cabins - the wake views are amazing and we've been blessed to some pretty incredible wildlife shows. Safe travels and do let us know the final outcome - a lot of people here are rooting for you!

Hi @Dreamscaper may I am why you didn't just book the 2 cabins you wanted rather than a guarantee?

Other than @TravelBluebird'TravelBluebird's Doppelganger?

Such restraint - that would have been fun to watch, lol. Bet she would have turned her head like she was remaking the Exorcist!! And you coulda said "made you look" Fun Times...

It was May a couple years ago. But still May. I think there's just more ice still present in May than later in the season. We only go May and Sept, so I have no experience w/TAF during peak summer months.

Probably just tired - looks like you've given it quite a workout! Love your posts and pictures - here's wishing your phone well. 🙏

Another reason, as if anyone needed one lol, to have a Droid. 🙃 But yours does need to come back cuz it has lots of pictures left to take for all of us ..

What bandaid?!

Ooh - gotta like an overnight in Mykonos!!

I do not. Safe travels and enjoy your cruise!

I may have posted this on the wrong thread. If so, crud and apologies. But @Saint Greg I have enjoyed and appreciate your posts.

Charters don't count in my book, lol. @kangforpres please spill it about an overnight at HMC...

Has there actually been an overnight at HMC? If Feb our stop got canceled due to wind, so we could only wave at her and the weebly wobbly tender that was trying its best... but it was scheduled for just a half day, so not really relevant to the overnight question, lol, just me being reminded of the beautiful sandy beach I missed. 😪🤧

HMC is a private island owned by HAL/CCL and not a "regular" port city likely allowing them to operate differently when anchored there.

I have thoroughly enjoyed your posts and pictures and appreciate the time and thought you invest in them. ⏰ 🕑 📷 Glad you make it back on board safely each day and choose to continue to hit "submit" on a very regular basis. 📖 📕 📘 📗 Sending you happy thoughts and a big hug, if you're a hugger. I'm not a hugger, but will do it when situation calls for it, lol, so no offense if you want to delete them, lol. 🤗🤷🫂 hugging emojis are limited on my phone - this was the best I could find. Continued safe travels and an enjoyable cruise! 🙈🙉🙊

You stated she was given a Mariner number after she installed Navigator App - it may have created a new profile for her thus being a different number than the Mariner #on the booking. That is easily remedied by a call (or email) to have the profiles merged under the correct Mariner number. That happened to DH last month on our Eurodam AK cruise and he's 3*. If you can see her on your Navigator, which you should be able to, she won't really need it until she's on the ship. They can fix it and get her in once she's onboard. You will see 2 dots/circles/bubbles on the boarding pass screen on Navigator - 1 will have your info, swipe to the other for her info. We always use just 1 phone for boarding passes, so 1 always stays packed away. Same for excursions, BTW. Good luck, safe travels, enjoy your cruise!

You are correct - casino will be closed those port nights. We just came off that itinerary on Eurodam; I'll post copies of the casino hours if I still have the planners. Enjoy your cruise!

Is the name wrong in your profile? If it is, you can fix that yourself via Navigator App or online; I've done it both ways. If the name is correct in your profile, but incorrect on the boarding pass, that requires them to fix it. Either way, a phone call is in your future - just recommend you be sure your profile is correct before you call as it makes things easier. Enjoy your cruise!

Have no personal experience doing that. If they'll do, it would likely depend on the fare type you booked (non-refundable, Advantage...) as they would probably re-fare it. They're definitely receptive to making money so they would likely be inclined to accommodate you for the potential revenue increase of incremental spending by Guest #2. Please keep us updated on the outcome and enjoy your cruise!

Never used HAL for hotels except for AK Land Cruise Tour package, so I can't provide anything on them other than to say they've look expensive when I've looked at them. As budget plays into my arrangements, I've skipped past them. I've used air and done it on my own, whichever is lower. Recently using Flight Ease saved me $200 for exact same flights vs booking myself. Still selected my seats and got loyalty miles, so no-brainer. Transfers I use in cities that I don’t know or port is quite a distance from the airport. Sometimes on the return I do an excursion w/transfer, sometimes transfer only; depends on flight time. We always travel back home same day - no hotel after cruise. Relating specifically to your question about Vancouver, we did the transfer w/tour on return a couple times so we could see the city w/o worrying about luggage. It was great! Enjoy your cruise!
