We have already bought our tickets on the Waterloo, but we appreciate everyone's opinion. We are planning to follow the underground path that the majority recommended with a back up plan of using a taxi if we overpack.

Thank you for all the wonderful and expertise information. It is extremely helpful. The underground route given makes more sense than the one that we came up on our own. The taxi is a great suggestion as well and we will consider that. We are going to Southampton on the 7th and have a hotel there for one night before our cruise. We have stayed in London previously and it is lovely as are the people such as all of you that help visitors like ourselves.

My husband and will be taking the 11:12am Eurostar from Paris to London arriving at 12:30pm on Monday, October 7th. We need to get to the Waterloo Station to catch the train to Southampton for our cruise departing on Tuesday, October 8th. We have been studying the Underground tube system, we think we may have it figured out, but would appreciate any assistance and/or confirmation that this is the best and correct way. From the Eurostar, we plan to get off at St Pancras and will walk to King’s Crossing to take the underground to the Euston tube station. We will then need to walk and take the tube station toward Kennington to Waterloo Station to catch the train to Southampton. It looks like the Southampton trains that will probably work the best for us are offered at 1:35pm, 2:05pm, or 2:35pm. Which of these times do you think will be best to purchase to ensure that we can get to our timed train for Southampton without any issues? Thank you kindly!!

It didn't for us on the Royal recently, but it may have been due to it being a 2 for promotion.

Thanks for the additional information euro cruiser!

Thanks so much euro cruiser! We didn't realize it was a new service so that makes sense why we couldn't find much talk about it, so that was making us question the option. The SIT bus stop gets us closer to our hotel then the train does so seemed to be a better option for us.

My husband and I are wanting to spend a few days in Rome after our cruise that ends in Civitavecchia on Sunday, October 20th. We are planning to take the cruise line's free shuttle to Largo del Pace and then walk the short distance to catch the SIT bus that departs at 9:30am. Has anyone done this? Is it an easy process? Do we need to buy the SIT bus tickets in advance? Any additional advice is appreciated!!

Lots of bunnies (furry, bunny butts, lots of different ones), eggs, signs wishing Happy Easter and more! I’ll post pictures if we go back by any cute ones.

On Regal now…did some inside deck walking on different levels and many-many doors decorated from cruising, love, and Easter themes.

You can see easily in your onboard app how many have been charged to each account. We are onboard Regal now. We just check the app in each evening when we have lost count 😜 and can make adjustments to whose account gets the next round of charges very easily and quickly. The bartenders will happily scan both medallions or select on the screen one for each if preferred.

Thanks everyone! Helps with my packing decisions!

It seems some ships are either kept cool or kept warm. Any recent cruisers have an opinion if Regal Princess is kept on the cooler or warmer side in the inside public areas at night? Thanks!

In the App for our upcoming Princess Regal cruise there is a Cyclebar 30 minute indoor cycling class that is being offered each day. It does not say that a fee applies like it does for other classes such as Yoga. I am hopeful, but doubt that this is a free class. Does anyone know if there is a fee and if there is, how much? Can you book for the whole cruise while onboard? Thanks for your help!

My hubby had the same thing happen as the initial poster. He was green lane for months and then all of sudden he went blue lane and the app showed that he still needed to order his medallion. I stayed green lane and both of our medallions were ordered at the same time. The app wanted us to pay $10.00 shipping for his medallion as well and didn't go to $0 when I tried to process. I called and spoke to an "Ocean Ready" rep. She said that she would order for us and he would need to pay the $10.00 shipping fee. I told her that was not acceptable since we had Princess Plus. I was put on hold, I am assuming while she talked to a supervisor. After about 5 minutes she came back on and said she could order and shipping was free. It is arriving this Friday as is mine in a separate package. Our cruise is March 24th. I was able to get through to the rep quickly and she was pleasant, but should have understand the issue was that we shouldn't be charged as part of our package.
