I have read a couple of posts that talk about fly-netting needed in Newfoundland. Is this really needed? What about Greenland? We're cruising in August, going to Corner Brook, St Anthony & St Johns in Newfoundland and Nuuk, Nanotalik & Qaqortoq in Greenland. Thank you!

Currently on the Crown, deck 8, port side aft is still free to wash and dry. Soap and dryer sheets $.

I hope our is in a decent condition! We're in E632 on the Crown for 31-days.

Interested, following.

We did the 17-day Connoisseur tour & we're doing it again next year. That said, 2 nights at 5 Lodges was almost a rush since we had an excursion on the full-day at all the lodges. Like someone said earlier Alaska is big and some of the lodges are quite far apart. The motorcoaches do stop about every 90ish minute for a washroom break and a few scheduled stops for sightseeing along the way. Not much time for excursions on travel days, they are an event by themselves. This is why I wish Princess would do 3-days at the lodges and why we did, and will do, the land first. The cruise is more relaxing. I'm not one to need/want a vacation after my vacation. IMHO

On the Grand & Royal they carried Almond & Coconut milks at the IC coffee bar. And the buffet did carry plain Almond milk for my oatmeal. Going on the Crown for 31 day & I feel pretty confident about eating in the MDR & Buffet. Like some one mentioned, we won't go hungry. Though sorbet was the only dessert available, besides fruit, some cookies or pudding would have been nice.

Following to see when Formal Nights are. Safe Travels & ENJOY!!!

Sorry we did the 17-day Connoisseur not a 10-day. We were on land for 10-day with 5 Lodges/Hotel.

Even though we did the 10-day Connoisseur and LOVED IT and are planning another. Having 2 days at each Lodge just felt rushed but is doable when getting on the ship at the end. Our takeaway is that we would never do the 1-night at the lodges tour. All of these tours are similar to the last night on the ship except your luggage is put out first thing in the morning most of the time before 8a. So think about feeling rushed getting to you lodge, then doing an excursion, eating dinner, sleeping, luggage out, breakfast and getting on a coach every day. Not for us, but others still do it. I'm just glad my sister had done the 1-night lodge thing to steer us with our decision. Whatever you choose, being in Alaska is worth a try on your terms and budget.

Tell your TA to have them apply the rest to your OBC. IMO they can make the call for you.

I tried this exact thing. It would not allow me to pay more than the final payment amount. I had to call my PVP and she applied the remaining balance of the gift card to my OBC. You have to know the exact amount that's left on the gift card.

Nevermind I finally found a thread that explains it.

I am curious...why are people buying a pack of 6 tests? I've been searching the threads and on the emed website. Don't know if I can buy a two pack for DH and myself. We come back the end of July and I'm trying to figure this all out. TIA!!

IC's specialty coffees include lattes. It's like going to any coffee shop. On the Grand in February, no warm cookies to be found. IC was as described by OPs. Food selections were few.

Sadly, this is what happened on our last Princess cruise in February also. I don't know if this is what they are trying to do as their "new standard". I'm hoping not! In past cruises, Princess, Disney & Royal, they had made a lot of the menu items special without dairy for my son and myself. I also agree that the desserts were sorbets or fruit on my last cruise. In the past there were a few dessert cakes and/or puddings that were dairy free on a daily basis. I'm really hoping my July cruise is back to what used to be the norm...we'll see. 🙃
