How does an inside porthole cabin compare to an ocean view cabin?

Close to Port, park n sleep, Happy Hour & breakfast? Suggestions? 

Speaking of carrying on soda...can u carry on a chair in a bag?? Or perhaps check it with your luggage? (Would use it OV cabin) 

Got a great deal on an OV cabin...always have had a balcony. Wondering if we ask d, we might be able to get a chair in the cabin? 
Another option we are wondering about...could we maybe put a luggage tag on a “chair in a bag” & put it with our luggage? 
Thanks

If it is for both of you it will state "for you and one travel companion". If it doesn't say that it's for you only. However, I have found that if your hubby had the same offer and you take it with you they will honor it. We get the same offers all the time but only one of us can book so I'll just print out the other offer and take it with me to the casino. 

Unfortunately he doesn’t have the same offer..

Drinks on us ...while in casino...I have that in my offer...would that include the other person in the cabin as well? (Hubby in this case)

That is what I thought but they have disappeared ...$200... Replaced with a $50 casino credit...

These are two Future Cruise Deopsits that we purchased on our 2020 January cruise. I called princess 30 days ago & was told they would be refunded to original form of payment. 

Update.... One FCD has been credited to my cc .... Hopefully the other one is following as they were both purchased at the same time.

Where on the Princess site do I find my Future Cruise Deposit listed ?

I called & surprisingly got right through! She said the FCD’s would be credited to my original form of payment, but couldn’t say when that would be. 

Are future cruise deposits refundable before two years?

It would help if you referred to the on board purchased Credits   as FCD  Future Cruise Deposits  which are repaid after 2 years.

And FCC  Future Cruise Credits  which usual expire without any refund if not used.

 

The former can be used as deposits for a cruise and have added OBC

the latter  USUALLY cannot be used as a deposit and do not carry any OBC with them.

 

Unfortunately all  cruise personnel  do not use the FCD/FCC terms correctly.

 

Can’t believe I used FCC & not FCD in my question ...that being said...does anyone know if a FCD is refundable before two years??

Some clarification is needed.  Many of us have FCC's that have a 2 year expiration date, after which our $100 deposit money is automatically returned.

 

Then there are people who have been given some sort of Cruise Credit in lieu of cancelled cruises.  They need to look at the terms of the agreement to see if there are clauses related to time and/or return of cash.

 

We have two fcc that we purchased on our 02/02/2020 cruise. Now with Corvid-19 & being in our 70’s we choose to no longer cruise. Do we have to wait two years for a refund? 

I tried an email to Princess...but it was blocked!

Best Sale Ever is unique to this as it is the only sale from Princess that has an "ADD-ON" feature that can be applied to current bookings and you keep that pricing and promotions.. Be aware that some agents, both Princess and TA's are still not aware of this and will tell you it is not available and you MUST re-fare to get the BSE

Therefore the "Best Sale Ever" 

Confused. If you are booked at a certain sale promo & a new one starts ...such as The Best Sale Ever...you don’t have to rebook to get the new sale?? You pay to add the new sale & keep what you have from your previous promo???

Suggestions for January 2021 on a motel for one night. Parking for the week & transportation to & from the port. (Port Everglades) . And reasonably priced.

😮 we were on Regal 2/2/20. 

We were very impressed with the cleanliness!

Anyone have any thoughts on when/if a 2020 Landmark Sale might begin?

Or be announced?

What is the Land Mark Sale?

Caribbean Princess - Food is just so-so.

Regal Princess - Food is outstanding.

Of course this might not be all that important to your trip. 

Yes the Regal food was outstanding!

2 different ships.

2 different experiences.

I agree about researching them first on the Princess website.

Just wondering about personal experiences . We just cruise Regal & it was amazing! 

How do they compare? 

Regal Princess...is there a day that the buffet has seafood other than what is usually there every day such as shrimp...salmon etc. ?

 Lucky you! You received a “move down“ offer! I received one once and I accepted it.   I moved down from a balcony to an interior.  I received all of my money back in the form of refundable onboard credit. I hope you get a call back. I would like to receive another one someday! 

Just curious if all interiors are the same. I would definitely take the offer if the beds were queen.
