  1. I’ve never been charged to have my Medallion shipped so I guess it’s because I’m Elite. Tom😀
  2. I understand that your stateroom attendant will supply you with an extension cord if needed. Tom😀
  3. I just booked 2 days ago for the Hyatt Place. I’ll post what I hear. The site says that my rate is $129 for 3 days in December. I’m curious.as to the total with taxes etc. The hotel rate is from $236 per night. Since I’ve never used them before I’m curious as to how long before I hear anything. Tom😀
  4. I’m curious from your stateroom would you have violated the Jones Act? If you were the captain what would have been your decision for a 7 day cruise? Tom🤔
  5. That was a freak accident. I’ve been in San Francisco since 1967 this is the first time we have ever had an accident with a cruise ship like that. Please don’t let this one incident to stop you from coming here again. Tom😀
  6. I’ve cruised out of San Francisco many times & yes tugs are used here & the day of the accident it was extremely windy. Tom😀
  7. Yes Princess has a whole new pricing, if you want to pick your stateroom it’s slightly more than a guarantee. I didn’t know that Princess was strapped for cash. Tom😀
  8. Question….Does anyone know for a fact who was at the controls or is it just speculation or assumption?i Until we hear a formal report isn’t it too early to speculate? Tom🤔
  9. Have you booked with Hotwire where you get one of 3 locations but you don’t know which one until you make a booking? I’ve looked but the downside is the rate is non refundable. Tom😀
  10. Here’s what I booked. It’s right on the beach & I only have to pay an additional $45. It’s refundable so I’ll keep looking.
  11. What do you know about a destination fee? I’ve never heard of that before. Tom🤔
  12. I haven’t chosen anything yet. I was there years ago, I don’t remember which one, that was within walking distance of the water taxi & had a shuttle to the cruise 🚢 port. I’ll look at Hotwire. Has anyone used the booking with Hotwire where you only know one of 3 hotels & they pick which one? Thanks for your suggestions. Tom😀
  13. I’ll see if I can contact the web site as it’s not the hotels. I’ll post whatever I find out. Tom😀
  14. Here’s something interesting I found on agodo.com. The B Ocean Resort listed at $95 per night Here’s the price with taxes for 3 nights. It lists an additional destination fee of $132.21. Is this the standard for Ft Lauderdale? This price is the best that I have found for this hotel. Thanks for everyone’s help/suggestions. Tom😀
  15. Thanks for your information. I’ll consider using them. Tom😀
  16. Realize that not all cruise ships can dock at pier 35 if they are too big. That’s why some ships can only dock at pier 27. Tom😀
  17. I’m traveling in December 6th of this year. Tom😀
  18. Looking for a reasonably priced hotel that’s near the water taxi stop in Ft. Lauderdale. Any suggestion appreciated. Tom😀
  19. Thanks! Yes I travel single. They stoped both the veterans + stock credit on the 29th & started to new offer the next day. It’s still a great offer. Tom😀
  20. With all of this credit you don’t need to add the Princess Plus when booking since I understand that you can add it the 1st day & pay with your OBC. I’m looking at a 14 day cruise where with the stock credit I’ll have $1,200 in OBC & it’s $840 if I add it with my booking. Tom😀
  21. They do this because people book a cruise & either cancel before final payment or don’t make final payment so Princess is considering a % of available staterooms because of this so they don’t leave with a ship not 100% full. I’m currently booked as a guaranteed as people cancel. Tom😀
