Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I’ve always found paper napkins at the International Cafe.
  2. I don’t know about having your own wheelchair. I’ve seen people with their own wheelchair but didn’t pay much attention to who was pushing it. I ‘think’ I’ve seen family members pushing the wheelchair, as well as port and Princess staff. Just go to the Accessible Area by the door to get into the building. There are only 2 lines into the building. Once inside there is 1 elevator to take you up to security. After you pass through security, there are people to direct you to the proper line to check in. My hubby doesn’t need a wheelchair onboard, his rollator still works well for him. But the incline on the ramp is just too much for him.
  3. There are some chairs by the entrance door for people needing wheelchair assistance. Just sit there and you will be helped. They take you through security and check in desk. Once you’re done checking in, they take you to a sitting area where a Princess worker will take you on the ship. There are chairs there too. (You will need to transfer to a ship wheelchair). We always give a tip to the people pushing my hubby in the wheelchair.
  4. Were you planning on buying FCDs for your kids? Since they haven’t sailed on Princess before, they wouldn’t have a Captain’s Circle number. I don’t think you can purchase them without having that number. Sorry if I misunderstood.
  5. Hubby tested positive on day 5 on our 15 day cruise, which we’re still currently on. (Royal Princess, 3/12-27). We wore masks everywhere, except while eating. Hubby didn’t wear it one time in the elevator. I was always listening out for coughing, sneezing, sniffling when out in public. We’re both vaccinated and triple boosted. The first day he had symptoms (fever, sore throat, stuff/runny nose) we went to medical to be tested. (I forgot to pack tests…as well as my phone, he forgot a hose for his cpap. These are things we never forget lol) We are isolated in our room. Three days after we began isolation I started with the same symptoms and tested positive. Not a big surprise to me. He’s officially out of isolation, I’m a few days behind. Hoping I get out tomorrow and can have a few days to move about the ship. Royal Princess has treated us very well. Medical calls at least once a day, Guest Services calls everyday to see if we need anything, Room Service has been excellent too. They even sent a special team to clean our room! We can order off the Main Dining Room/ Specialty DR menus and even the bars at no charge. We are eating better than we would have at home. We will each get FCCs for our days in isolation. I’ll check at Guest Services about getting all the paperwork (medical, FCCs) tomorrow when (hopefully) I get out of isolation.
  6. We usually do the main dining room. Hubby loves the salmon and I love the beef medallions. We have plenty of time to go to Alfredo’s for lunch or dinner during the cruise. You really can’t go wrong with either place for lunch.
  7. Which ship? Some ships don’t have indoor pools.
  8. I used it on my January 6, 2023 cruise in the casino and shops. We didn’t take any shore excursions.
  9. My steward had no problem switching our mini bar to 2 coffee packages. This was on January 6, 2023.
  10. It’s in your Cruise Personalizer. Go to Check In, then Dietary Request, right above the bright green banner to print your summary.
  11. I’ve cruised 5 times since January. Who knows why some get the offer and some don’t.
  12. I got the low fares too. My hubby and a friend showed higher prices. I was going to send it to my friend until I read the small print. It says it’s non-transferable.
  13. My daughter, her hubby, and his little sister had the queen bed and upper bed on a 10 day cruise. They split the queen bed up after the second night and were much happier with that setup. Much roomier and less awkward. Have your son try it with the queen bed. It may work for him.
