Yes, it's the same.

You don't. That's the beauty of the medallion. Someone gets billed, it just might not be the person who ordered the drink. Check your folio daily.

Not exactly your issue, but I have logged in from different devices, and some display all my information, and sometimes it can't load some pages. Clearing cache generally resolves it, so maybe try that and/or use a different browser than your default in your laptop?

This is correct. They do this somewhat frequently so they can charge more.

Are we the same person? Although I never tried OceanNow, and stopped going to specialty restaurants when I noticed the quality was degrading.

No, they charge your credit card separately

They have lots of vegan options. If you read anything on this board it's that they provide options every dietary request

Why would Princess give them obc because someone went into an open door and dropped their stuff in the wrong room? Last week we went up and dropped our bags in the room early. People need to pay attention to where they are. The buffet will be there still people.

Wrongful billing is a benefit of the medallion

It's not a sticker, they have machines to make you a new one.

You must push everyone out of the way and board first, then rush to the front of the line. They need to allow online booking so people stop running over me trying to board.

We are on now. Been a great week so far. Ready to go home.

We used to take one from home, use it on Princees Cays, then give it to a local when we left. Sea day today and the retreat pool is packed and their are several people with noodles and floats in the pool now.

Count me among those I guess. I can pay for tips and wifi (which is a huge profit center itself for the cruise lines), and bring my own soft drinks onboard and save a lot over the cost of 2 plus packages, so it works for us. On our current 10 day cruise plus would be $1200 and I paid $520 for tips and wifi so they are still making a lot of profit off me, and that's okay. You can't cruise without expecting them to. As I said, a coffee/soda package with tips and wifi for say $35 a day would make me think about it, although they would need to offer coke zero and sprite zero for me to consider it. It would still cost me about $150 more than I spend now (bringing my own onboard), but I might find that worth it for the convenience. It's all about everyone's threshold for the value they perceive in what the onboard costs are. No issue at all for me if someone doesn't drink and finds the plus a good value, that's everyone's individual decision.

The policy on soda is one 12 pack per person, but it seems they don't enfor e it. Have brought more than that with no issue.

Yes, you can request prior on the website, or just tell your room steward

Yes, all you want

No, 3.3ft deep all the way.

Yes, multiple people with them. This is the retreat pool

On Enchanted, and people with noodles and floats

Yes, the new norm

Well said!

I get what you are saying, but the current plus package is "cheaper" than buying a la carte and they are making money from it, how is this different? They are telling you with plus that they value a alcoholic drink at $2, and yet are making money on that. I doubt many people are buying alcohol a la carte, they would certainly spend more than the package cost. I'm just saying they could offer a package that includes non alcoholic drinks to guests that don't drink. There used to be a coffee package Of course, part of the package goal is also to collect the tips and sell wifi which they might not have some buy or pay for separately.

I want them to provide more drink and ice stations. Having only one on each side of the WFM is terrible

My point was they are making a lot of money on the packages they sell now, and could make more if they expanded to packages for non drinkers.
