Sea Hag

Gotcha! I was thinking a total. The partial will be good to see too.

I'm currently booked on the Princess eclipse cruise, but I'm still looking around in case another line comes up with a sailing I like better. I'm confused about your statement that you booked the solar eclipse cruise April 24 on the Harmony. Looking on the RCI website, the Harmony seems to be in the Caribbean in that timeframe. ??

What a horrible thing to happen! But it sounds like he's okay, and that's the main thing. I wish you all the best on getting everything all sorted out.

We don't always do a specialty restaurant, but when we do I like to go on the first night out. The menu in the MDR on the first night hasn't always been very interesting to me.

Wow! I hope you get your cabin back or another cabin that's just as acceptable. I do check our bookings nearly daily. I'm particularly worried about our booking for the total eclipse cruise disappearing into the ozone. I'd hate that.

I like to manage all our travel plans myself. That way, if anything's messed up I know exactly who to blame. I'm sure many people have excellent TAs, but I'm not interested in that. My very excellent CVP handles the things for me that I can't do for myself. She gets me better prices than what's on the website when I ask her to finalize a booking that I put on hold. She cancels cruises for me if I need to do that, and she does that immediately after I send her a simple email requesting it. No need to call the main number and sit on hold. She managed to get me our second choice cabin for the total eclipse cruise, and the way those cabins were selling on elite day that was no mean feat. I very much appreciate this gal!

That's a good question. The Princess logo on mine is also blue. I'm elite, and the discount on internet never show up like it did for our cruise back in August of last year.

I know that. My point was that cc probably hasn't moved to Cielo. Because, as we all know, the app is never wrong.

It would be somewhat larger, but, speaking for myself only, I wouldn't bother. After years of hearing people talk about how small the balconies on the Royal class mostly are, we got one on the Majestic a couple of years ago. It was small, but it was fine for the two of us. As long as both of us can get out there and sit down, it's fine with us.

I would definitely get that cabin again. It's tucked back in the corner, so people don't actually walk in front of the window, even though you do see them passing by during the day. The stairs have always been closed at night. You can get directly out onto the upper promenade deck by just going forward from that cabin and going out a couple of doors. It's quiet there, and I don't recall hearing any noise from the Princess theater. The view is looking out across the deck and the top of the stairs, which is fine with me.

We're on the Sky at the end of next month. We have cc, and the app still shows us in Estrella. Since we all know that the app is infallible, we must still be in Estrella. 😂

On one sailing, and only on that one, I got a notification in the app that I could add a second 1 person package for $20 for the entire trip. This was the first or second day. I didn't do it, since we didn't really need it, but I thought it was a good deal.

We've seen the frosted ring donuts on all our recent cruises. I couldn't care less about those. What I do care about and what's been gone is the little custard or jam filled donuts. I miss those little balls of happiness!

You'd think so, wouldn't you? Instead, we're at home. The service provider "upgraded" the service in our neighborhood yesterday. I'm not currently seeing any benefit in that. 😂

Duplicate post. Internet problem woes around here this morning.

The packages don't make financial sense for us. We do better just paying for the things we actually use.

I wonder how soon this will filter out to all Princess ships. Could be a while. Or not.

I noticed this some time last week, I think. I can't see that anything changes for Grand and Royal class.

I posted this after our Discovery sailing back in August of 22. Not sure if the same items will be on the Enchanted, but this might be some help.

This is all good information. We're on the same Sky Princess sailing as rjack22 on February 25. We're flying Southwest (I know, I know. But I was able to get the most acceptable flights on Southwest and I booked us before the meltdown.) We have Early Bird for check in, not that this gets you much. The Early Bird will check us in and get our boarding group automatically. Does anybody have experience with EZ Check when flying Southwest? I'm wondering if there're any pitfalls to watch out for.

Ah, I read it wrong above. Good luck!

So, if you move the third person over to a new cabin with the fourth person, then what you end up with is two cabins with double occupancy. Your free third person would go away, wouldn't it? This is an interesting scenario, and I'm looking forward to whatever happens here.

While I'm not sure either if the reservation system is always followed, we did see several people getting told that their reservations were for a different dining room and that they should go there. This was on the Ruby last April.

This probably won't be much help. We've had a forward cabin on Marina deck for Alaska and Mexican Riviera cruises. We never felt much motion at all. You'd be two decks higher, so it might be a bit more.

Edit: I spaced the part where you said "without the app." As far as I know, you need to do this in the app, otherwise you'll be notified that they've assigned you a boarding time based on your location. I'll leave the below in here, just in case it can help somebody else. Go to Personal Information and Documents from the main screen. Scroll down past Required Information to Suggested. Choose Arrivals. If you have more than one cruise booked, you'll need to choose the ship/sailing. On the Arrivals screen, you'll see arrival groups and times if they're available. You don't say when you sail, but if they're not available just keep checking back.
