  1. Can someone please advise me if the balconies Carib Deck are larger than the other decks. I have sailed on her many years ago but just can’t remember which deck have the bigger balconies. We are considering the 61 days Dover to Brisbane July 4th 2026 on the Crown.
  2. See this what I mean about being "objective". I didn’t say I wasn’t going to pay Gratuities. i just meant if we, when booking from Australia why should we have to pay extra when others get it included. Our Packages is definitely not showing Gratuities included when looking at what’s included. I think its a good idea to have the Gratuities included in the Princess Plus Package. This way you dont have to worry about it as its paid for.
  3. We have a cruise booked on the Enchanted Princess Caribbean Cruise. Hi I would really like to know why when we purchase Princess Plus the benefits are different to when you purchase it in the USA. I am trying to be objective but seems we are the poor relation here. I hope I am wrong and someone may be able to enlighten me. I am talking about the difference that when we purchase the Princess Plus Package, gratuities are not included but are on the USA Princess Plus Package they are. We Paid an extra $105 per person per day for the package and even when converting our dollar to the American dollar its works out about the same total actually even slightly more $68US. This seems like a scam and unfair to me and would really like to know the real answer. Also, we pay a fair bit more for a cruises here when we book. I know this as I do have a US address and have booked with it before. As an Elite passenger this seems very unfair to me and the only people that are going to suffer is the poor hard-working crew and staff. I hope I am wrong. I contacted Princess on the Chat line and they confirmed this.
  4. A question in regards to your allocated cabin and bidding for and upgrade. If a bid was sucessful, does the OBC that was given to us with the origonal cabin stay the same or does this change to the new given cabin. TIA
  5. We are still not to clear on if we will be required to do a pre test or not for our cruise on the 17 Feb 2022. We are from Australia, fully Vac and 2 booters, we are doing the Caribbean 20 day on the Enchanted Princess which consists of 2x10day cruised back to back. We arriving in Ft Lauderdale 2 days prior the cruise staying at the Embassy Suites. I know the sistuation is changing daily but just would like some clarity. many Thanks In Advance.
  6. Private excursions are the way to go. You are not hearded around like sheep, much more personal and usually half the price. We always do private excursions. The only thing you need to do is make sure you are back to the ship well in advanc before it sails. Never had a problem.
  7. We have the drinks plus package included. Doed this also include the likes of the Coffee Card for Espresso and Cuppachino. Thanks
  8. Thanks for all your info and is very helpful. Yes i meant to say, walk off the ship carring our own luggage and then Taxi to the airport. Looks like it is possible. Yes we are flying back to LAX then conecting flight to Singapore and Australia. Thanks Everyone
  9. Can anyone please tell me the earlist you can get off the ship in Fort lauderdale. it docks 6am. Its just that our TA has booked us on a 10am flight and its the the only flight available as we have connecting flights that evening. Hoping we can do a walk off and a quick 15 minute walk to the airport for JetBlue.
  10. Thanks for the info and i checked the cruise date and it is definately the 17th Feb we depart from Fort Lauderdale. I think they are mostly 10 days cruises so i assume ours is a Bact to Back. See you on the 27th. Yes i heard some private excursions havent been allowed but hope by the time we go as with the testing it will change, I hope. Just like to plan our day trips and find it interesting researching the port of Call. Thanks again
  11. Thanks for that. The site I was looking for was just General Information such as. currency used where the ship docks, etc. There was a site that gave you this but cant find it.
  12. We havent cruised for a couple of years now due to covit and so looking forward to our up coming Caribbean cruise on the Enchanted princess next Feb 23. We prefere to do our own thing in ports on previous cruises and there use to be a link to Port Of Call on here somewhere but can find it. They showed all ports and you clicked on the area you were cruising and then on the port you want info on. Does anyone know if this still available? We have found this so helpful in the past.
