  1. Darn, about Maui. I think it is frequently missed. Too much wind/swells? I believe a friend of mine missed it at the end of January ,same ship
  2. $39. -Crown Grill,Sterling Steakhouse, & Bistro Sur La Mer $35-Sabatini’s & Bayou $29.-Harmony On Majestic Pay as you eat-Kai Sushi On Diamond $18.-salty dog gastro pub
  3. When you say the first and second place people did not show up ,I’m assuming you mean to the captains circle party. Sometimes / almost always there’s more than one captains circle party, so maybe if they weren’t at yours ,they were at another one ?
  4. My mom is currently on the Emerald and she said that the current soap/lotion is not to her liking at all. Pretty sure she brings her own lotion & shampoo with her. so I think it’s pretty much the liquid hand soap . I believe their cabin steward wrangled up some of the old sent for the soap or found them a bar of soap.
  5. @travelin.sisters nice that so many staff came to the CC meet up. following along on your journey.
  6. Yes brought the vase on board ,it was plastic . Put the vase & the flowers in the little plastic wrap that they came in ,put paper towel around them ( flowers)that was wet & put them in a tote bag and on board they went
  7. Great airport. Fly in and out of there often for visiting family and cruising.
  8. Just ask your cabin steward or stewardess for a paper copy of the Patter and if everybody in the room wants their own you can ask for that as well. I don’t believe that has changed. But if you don’t want a paper copy you just tell them or like a few you said just note it on the app .
  9. @travelin.sisters I love your packing style. My mom and her husband are winging their way from Cali right now to Fort Lauderdale to join the Emerald Princess and to hear of her packing and unpacking and then this morning she couldn’t find her breakfast that she had packed ,she put it in the overhead in the plane ,but it was found. Now I know why they go a couple days early ,because she’ll have to repack again , maybe even go shopping for something that she forgot or can’t find. Love your style of writing ,I’ll be following along . I’m loving arm chair cruising at the moment.
  10. Any information on why getting off in Ensenada has been canceled? Is it the storm/weather that’s going to be coming? Well you definitely wouldn’t want to leave any onboard credit in your account unless it’s refundable and even then I’ve been reading people have been having difficulty receiving it. How about a picture of you and special someone if you took any,how about going shopping for something in the stores or can you use that money at the casino? Have no idea I don’t really gamble .
  11. @jinpasco Totally agree about the “free “Internet minutes on Princess in the past. I remember the first time my husband became platinum (we were not on the same level of cruising with Princess) and the Internet was down pretty much the whole cruise he was so looking forward to doing stuff on the Internet while cruising , but it just didn’t happen. And guest services and or the Internet manager would not do anything to compensate because they were free so .... Even if you buy a package or Internet while cruising no guarantees that it will work either as I’ve come to understand. But yes free while it lasted was good
  12. Expect layers and anything and everything. Rain wear,coat,windbreaker. Shorts and pants,long sleeve & short. Of course check weather sites before going. Also depends on what shore excursions you plan on doing and how active they are. Example-if your excursions are on a bus all day you won’t need as many layers etc. And if you’re going to be outdoors all day then different story . What to expect: if you visit Arizona specifically the Phoenix area in the summer months expect hot weather. But Alaska weather in my opinion can be anything , I have been to Alaska twice ,once in July and once at the end of August and they were very different weather wise.
  13. As Elite -free internet is not a perk for a little while now,but you can get 1 device plan and get a discount. 2+ people can use the internet,but just not at the same time. 1 person can use the internet on one device at a time and switch i.e. between iPad and I phone. So there are options out there. Well it would be great to know your answer about going to Guest services, but wouldn’t that require guest services to actually log into a computer with your confirmation number, check you in ,and then print your boarding pass? Or you just want the boarding pass printed out? I would think one would inquire at the Internet desk when it’s “manned “ I just can’t imagine guest services/ pursers doing this for passengers ,they’re busy enough at that desk trying to solve other problems ,but I could be totally wrong. Hopefully someone answers you with firsthand knowledge.
  14. Agree about taking away “free “internet/ WiFi minutes,but Platinum and Elite do get a discount. They don’t use minutes any longer so Princess cant offer a 90 minute package. Perhaps you can still get a “package “ for 1 day if you want internet??
  15. I believe this menu and price list was from someone recently on the Diamond Princess that posted them. I am not on the ship . Thread is: On Diamond Now En Route to Japan . Bobbiegentry
  16. Current coffee prices al a carte. Just in case you don’t have a package or are deciding if you want one.
  17. You might want to check out this post. Live Ruby Princess DEC 18 – 29 Western Caribbean\Mexico . author is ceilidh1 She gives great information and she especially gives great information about Galveston about the ins and outs of pre-stay cruising ,in my opinion. If I knew how to attach a thread I would’ve ,sorry I don’t know how to do that.
  18. Yes I know that they have used those berths within the past year ,but not very often. I think, I meant more permanently .maybe that’s why they’re doing the infrastructure work?? I guess time will tell, my family lives in California so they keep me updated .
  19. Saw this too-portoflabonds.org- Design and install a new 11 KV system for Cruise Ships at Berth 46. In addition, this project requires the extension of a new LADWP 34.5KV circuit through existing LADWP underground conduit (from 22nd Street to Berth 46 along Miner Street). Project cost is $35 million and design is expected to be complete in 2023 with construction completion by 2025. so maybe they are planning to have 4 cruise ships on 1 day at San Pedro port in the future?
  20. Maybe @Glamother booked a mini suite in their “Suite package” thinking it’s a full suite.? Like a few of you posting -if anyone called me on my home phone or my cell phone offering a princess cruise or any other cruise and I don’t know them ,no matter how much information they have, no way would I give them any information and heck NO would I give them my credit card to book . I don’t talk to people on the phone that do cold calls for anything, no way . If I want something or want to travel I’ll call /email my “people”
  21. I know it’s not exactly what you’re asking ,but you could look to see if there is a Live From on your particular ship(Enchanted) right now or you could post on the current roll call for the ship that you are sailing on and see if somebody answers you and or you could have them upload the Patters /newsletter . I guess it depends on what you’re looking for in the daily patters. But if you’re doing a transatlantic you’re going to obviously have lots of Sea days,so your activities will be totally different than probably the current cruise going on. But if you’re just trying to get a general idea of like what production shows etc. then the patters right now might help
  22. I would think they would drop you off at whatever terminal/airline that you are flying . ( i.e. arrival level) Maybe someone will chime in where they actually drop off at. LAX has nine passenger terminals. But it sounds like you just want to ride to the airport and then catch a airport hotel bus? Hotel shuttles at LAX are located on the upper/departure level identified by red curbside pylons at all Terminals.
