Yes, I have not seen any news (nor can I find any on the Princess board) about a delayed embarkation for Royal Princess?  Where are we seeing this news?  Just echoing your question, hawkeye93...

I just got off the Royal Princess this morning.  All was good.  

Just got off the new Carnival Panorama and then have done away with art auctions 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Didn't get much at all on the Sky.

Get rid of the Art Auction/Spa crap and there would be almost none.

I think it has gone down quite a bit.

Princess pales in comparison to the sheer volume of junk mail through the USPS everyday.

Thanks for the input. Actually the Maitre’ds on Carnival encourage us to email them with our requests.

But just no earlier than one week before cruising....

And they usually send us an answer!:cool:

Does anyone know if it possible to email a Maitre’d on a ship for a dining request? We will be sailing on the Princess Star and would appreciate the email address if anyone has it. Thank You. :cool:

Does anyone have the email address for the Maitre’d on the Princess Star?

We usually sail on Carnival and email the Maitre’d the week before sailing with our requests and always receive them!

I wrote Carnival to ask if I could bring the small bottles that come four to a pack instead of once large bottle. Here is the response.

 

We know you are ready to depart from the ordinary, in fact you have probably already checked outhttps://www.carnival.com/awaywego and we are here to help!

I wish, I wish! I love the little 4 packs myself! However the policy remains as "At the beginning of the cruise during embarkation day only, guests (21 years of age and older) may bring one 750 ml bottle of sealed/unopened wine or champagne per person in their carry-on luggage".

We trust you understand that allowing additional quantities that total the 750ml would further delay the embarkation process, involve additional staffing and security resources.

We have been carrying the little four packs of wine onboard for years and have never had a problem. We just put them in our carry on.

We always request twice a day. I shower in morning and my better half showers before dinner...:cool:

Always tip $5 for two bags and they are very happy...

Most people at cruise terminal don’t tip.

Just driver’s license and American $$$$$.

But we just go for a nice lunch, margaritas, and shopping on the beach....and we do Mexico cruises about 3 times a year. No flying for us...:cool:

Just got off the Splendor and yes they still offer the $3 double...

Watery scrambled eggs are the worst. Gak! I will stay away. Will the omelette bar make over easy eggs or are the eggs pre-mixed?

Yes, omelette bar will make fresh scrambled eggs. But you have to ask for fresh eggs. And they make great over easy eggs....

I love landyards. I collect them from every port and wear a different one every day....whatever matches what l’m wearing. It’s fun!

Candy Crush works just fine without internet...;p

One! :cool: Leaving on the Splendor for Mexico tomorrow!:cool::cool::cool::cool:

We also had a good experience with Carnival insurance. We had to cancel because I was in the hospital with pneumonia. After filling out the paperwork we received a full refund..:)

Just remember that the cruise ships stopped going to Mazatlan in 2011 for about 3 years because of the Do Not Travel....just wondering if they would do it again.

We love Mazatlan and have been going there since 1980

First for 2 week vacations at the Playa Mazatlan and then on cruise ships. :cool:

just heard on ABC news that a Do Not Travel warning has been ussued for Sinaloa, Mexico. Mazatlan is in Sinaloa, I wonder if this will affect cruises there...:(

Just did Mexico cruise on Miracle. Priority tendering passengers met in one of the bars and were escorted to the tenders. No one was checked, no problem is having someone else with you.

Thank you:)

How does one go about emailing the

Maitre’d? We will be on the Splendor in March.:cool:

‘

No, not every night. Just got off a 14 day cruise on Miracle and I think it was only one night. But they're still good!

Didnt realize it had steak sandwiches at the grill. That will be good

I don't think they have steak sandwiches at the grill. Just hot dogs, hamburgers, and chicken. Just got off.

I'll have to see that to believe it!

You have to request fresh eggs and they will do it!

We've sailed many times on the Miracle into Long Beach and first time we

have been towed.
