We just finished a fabulous 20days on the Enchanted. Never did get into O'Malley's it was so popular. Met cruisers who told us they would go there first thing for dinner and spend the entire evening. If the young couple was not performing there was always something going on in the piazza and they had a seat. Perhaps Princess should consider allowing these talented entertainers to perform a few sets in Take 5 ( as well as the jazz ) or in the Vista Lounge. Anyone who will be onboard in the next few sailings hope you get to have some fun and sing along. Vheers Louden

The "Plan" has always been promoted as "Princess Plus" initially sold at $50 then increased to $60. Last fall the press release simply stated that the "Princess Plus" plan now included the two casual meals with no reference to when one subscribed to the plan or any suggestion that if you wanted this "perk" you could upgrade. The language was inclusive with no exclusion for early purchases. Old Plus packages were included in the new provision for $15 drink limit but did not provide for the "Juice Bar". We were on a 10 day trip. Why would I pay a $100 upcharge to obtain a $30 meal promotion?

Regarding the "Plus 60" plan. Our last cruise aboard the Sky in January was our last with a "Plus 50" Package. Despite the press release last fall which simply stated that "Princess Plus" would now include two casual dinners per cruise I was told that we had "Old" P+ and we were not entitled to these casual dinners. Passenger Services had no explanation but would not provide the casual dinners. They pointed out that there was a small symbol beside our account that indicated "old" plan. Very disappointed with their position.

The same team that thought it was a great idea to remove the one unique Princess feature, Skywalkers, and replace it with sloped stern soot catcher aft cabins. Think of all the errors on the Royal! That not being successful we will drop aft cabins altogether and install two staircases instead on the Sun. Great use of premium space.

The problem is not when you are established but when you are up and moving around these closely placed loungers.

My wife received a nice bouquet of flowers. When we went to the hospital we insisted on an incident report. We returned to the scene with a Security Officer who completed a report which included photos of my wife's footwear. No apology as I 'm sure that would imply responsibility.

The design and materials are bad and the present placement is dangerous. Perfect setup for a suit.

Sometime last fall the loungers on the Sky Princess were replaced with a new all metal model. These new loungers are slightly wider than the old. The legs of these loungers are completely exterior of the bed are are of 1" rectangular metal. The corners are very sharp. In order to place an equal amount of loungers in a given space the loungers are placed much closer together and the usual small table for each two loungers has been removed. Moving around these tightly placed loungers is very hazardous. A slight brush against a corner and you have a skin tear. In our last three cruised on the Sky my wife has had two tears, one requiring a visit to the onboard hospital, and I have had one. We brought this problem to the attention of the staff but had no results. Suggest everyone be very cautious around these loungers.

Just got one yesterday on Sky Princess. Not as good quality but happy to have it. Louden

Just spoke to an "Ocean" specialist who said she could not make changes to new app because it was still getting update. She said use the boarding pass but wait until February. I'll just use the old app for this cruise start 20 Jan.

Immediately after I posted this I got an update to 1.0.1

Is this an Iphone update? Did not get or see an update for Android.

Thank you for the tip. Yes indeed I have a QR code and Green Line without having entered Shoreside account. HOWEVER, this app says "New to Princess despite me being Elite with 48 cruises.

Interesting! What version of the app do you have. I don't see any reference to Muster station, nor do I get Landscape view. Are you just dreaming of the ideal app?

Further to the above. How can you release an App when the login doesn't work? Don't you build from this? Princess you dropped the ball again. Perhaps you didn't even start with a ball.

What exactly has been improved? Still slower than the second coming. Can't sign in with email & PW making for very tedious Booking # sign in. Can only see one voyage despite "My VoyageS" being displayed. Can't find travel summary. Improved! Really?

Thanks for the hint about the calendar symbol and heart. I must be blind or it could have been a little bit larger.

Just downloaded from message link. The app does not show up for me if I go directly to Google Play store. As soon as I tap check-in the app time's out. Can't see other voyages which is a real pain. I have B2Bs but only first shows. Very long time to load first time. When I clicked check-in got cirlcle for over a minute then page appeared followed almost immediately by time out. Will try signing in with booking number which is a pain. Not Impressed.

That it explains it. I forgot to sign in as we are Elites as well. Thanx Louden

Unbelievable that this trip is presently being shown as sold out ! Is this possible so soon ? Congrats that you got a booking. Would be a dream trip for sure. Cheers Louden

We are Canadian and traveled on the Sky in early Nov from Southampton. We received the Medallions about two weeks before sailing. We got notice of shipping with tracking but were not able to track and the package arrived by Canada Post.

I believe I used the "contact us" link at stockperks. You could also try carnivalcorp@stockperks.com

I understand that. What I am curious about is what period a single statement will cover and how and when to you submit another statement for a future cruise?

I had the exact same problem with my Canadian broker statement. Eventually sent email with statement attached which they acknowledged. Shortly thereafter the app acknowledged that I owned the required shared and gave a prompt to "Redeem Perk". Selecting this I was required to enter the booking number for my cruise. It stated that perk would show up in a few days. This is day one. My question is what is required to apply for future cruises. Our next is in Sept. The app does not seem to allow for further uploads.

Thank you for posting the information. Very much appreciated. Cheers Louden
