Thank you, very enjoyable.

Thank you wil e coyote!

I’ve never booked air through NCL before. Wife and I are on Pride of America inter-island Hawaiian cruise in September. We have a promotion for second person flies free. Our latest information from NCL regarding air travel is that we will receive flight information 30 to 45 days in advance of departure date. I presume we will be on same flight and be seated together. Am I correct?

Been watching Olympics on Sport 24 in cabin at night. It’s fine but would like program guide. What I find on internet has times for Great Britain, doesn’t help for on board. But I’m happy to catch a bit before bed each night. All good. 😉

On board Caribbean Princess. Been watching Olympics this week on Sport24 in cabin. Can’t find program guide but it’s ok. Just watching in evening before bed. 

I’m watching Olympics, women’s alpine skiing on tv in my cabin on Caribbean Princess right now. Date 2/6, time 9:45 pm. No special hookup, regular programming. Channel live tv sports 24. Don’t know extent of programming but pleasantly surprised. I will report as week goes on.

Any of you folks onboard this week, can you ask if there is any Olympic programing available next week on cabin tv or MUTS? I'm getting confusing information from other threads. 

This is great news! I looked at the link and it did show Olympic events but does Princess have this sport24live channel?

I really don't want to be messing around with cabin tv and would much rather watch on regular programming. 

Medallion app worked fine for me yesterday ordering Medallion Net. No problemo.

None of this will help me with my ipad or iPhones. I wish Princess would relent and offer as part of their programming. Oh well.

We got a notice in our cabin today that for next week Grand Cayman is cancelled and we will arrive in Cozumel 2 hours early.  The rest of next week is still scheduled as planned.

👍

Anybody know if Jamaica is still on itinerary next week?

Another question about the coffee package. How do you know when you have used up your 15 specialty coffees? Does the server tell you?

I’m on the CB feb 6 and am disappointed Princess will not have Olympics available. I’m bring iPad and getting wireless package and hope to stream. I downloaded NBC sports app that looks like it will provide full coverage. It would be great to connect to room tv with Bluetooth or something. Anyone technical advice would be appreciated.

If you have Princess Plus (fare that includes drink package, wifi and gratuities) the New Grounds Coffee is included in the package.

I do not have plus package.

I’m on the CB Feb 6 and am wondering about purchasing New Grounds Coffee Package. I read all the stuff in the on board reservations tab and have some questions. In the general description section it says saves 20%. Does this mean you are still charged for your specialty coffee on your ship account but at a 20% reduced price? In the terms and conditions section it says you must pre-order 3 days in advance of cruise. Can you order when on board? No mention of this.

My initIal take on package is that’s it’s like the old coffee card but just using medallion. Is that the case?

Thank you in advance for your replies.

I have Ocho Rios and Grand Cayman on itinerary for second week of b2b starting Feb 6. I booked an excursion for Ocho Rios but am leaving GC open. Chances aren't good for GC from what I've been reading and an at sea day may be substituted. I would prefer a port but we'll see. We can always book excursion on board for wherever we end up.

I booked 3 excursions for Feb 6 sailing on CB. One got cancelled by operator and Princess refunded money. I replaced with a different one. I wouldn't worry about what other people are doing. Book away with what makes you happy and start the anticipation. 🏖️

OK I stand corrected. I was just thinking of your standard b2b 14 day cruise where they stitch together two seven day itineraries like my Feb 6 eastern/western Caribbean cruise. 

Don’t quite get these comments about changing cabins. My understanding is you don’t change cabins on b2b. One of the cool features of b2b cruising.

I believe we are currently at 840 passengers. Bookings for Jan 23 are 1,132 passengers and for Jan 30 is 945 passengers. Those are subject to minor changes.

 

Thank you for your live reviews. We are on February 6 and I'd love to see those low numbers. I'd enjoy a quite cruise. 😴

Very disappointing. I was looking forward to lounging on deck in the evening watching Olympics on MUTS. Oh well, we shall cruise on. 

I’ve heard that Olympics will not be available on Princess ships e.g., MUTS, in cabin television, etc. First, is this true? Second, are there other options like Wi-Fi?

Movies Under The Stars. The big screen over the pool.

We are on the CB during Olympics and Superbowl. I presume they will have on MUTS but I’m wondering if they will show in Princess theatre if shows are not scheduled. Any thoughts?
