THANK YOU mahdnc!

They’re offering an Inside Access Behind the Scenes tour on our short cruise in late September. Has anyone been on it? Is it worth it? Any comments appreciated. Thanks.

Is there a way to check the terminal where you checked in?

Thanks everyone!

Does anyone know how to find out how many ships will be in port on the day that we’ll be visiting?

I booked a gty because nothing was available on the deck the rest of our family was on. I’ll be happy with a cabin anywhere on the sold out ship as long as it has a balcony, that is.

Mini suites on the hump have larger balconies. You can see them on the deck plans.

Thanks again. I’ll look for them.

Thanks. Where can I find those videos? YouTube?

Would like to know about the “view” from an obstructed view balcony on Deck 6. Can you see anything?

We used our Diamond freebies for specialty coffees sometimes.

Thank you! I’m all set now.

I just got online and can’t seem to order only the observed test - looks like they want to send me a test too…

Thank you! I will try them for our 9/23 Radiance 11 day HI cruise.

I was at Walgreens today for Omicron/Covid booster and asked about Covid testing for travel. They said Medicare no longer covers testing for travel. I think they said it would cost $129. Looked online and found that Walmart is testing for $75 - I’ll check tomorrow and may make an appointment there. I know there are some online proctored tests that were advertised at $19.95 but you have to download their app and jump thru hoops to get signed up.

So, for a Saturday sailing can you get tested on Thursday? Was recently on a Princess Cruise and the day of sailing did not count. Also, they did not even ask to see our test results or even as about them.

My favorite was my first cruise. I told my husband that if I only got one cruise in my life that I wanted to go to Norway. We did it! It was 1987 and we were on an old rust bucket (Ocean Islander) with only 250 passengers. We had a blast with our dinner companions and they led us on fantastic tours. We kept in touch for many years but I think I’m the only surviving member of the group. I’ve been on many cruises since. Loved New Zealand and Australia, Alaska and Hawaii cruises. My most recent cruise was last month - to Norway with my son, granddaughter and her husband and my 2 great grandsons on Sky Princess. We went to different ports than first cruise which were nice but…. Am booked on Radiance in September with my son and will get to see a grandson who lives in Kona.

What’s the fashion for formal nights these days? We’re going to HI in late September.

Does anyone know when Princess actually pays the airline for our plane tickets? We’re 50 days out from our cruise - 47 days out from our flight to the port city. I need to make flight changes which have to be done prior to 45 days out. I’ve called numerous times over the past several weeks and have spent hours on hold. I have been cutoff many times. Some “agents” have tried to help, some have out and out lied to me by telling me there were no flights from point A to point B, one even told me that Princess Insurance would cover any change fees… I have sent a registered letter to Santa Clarita (no response). I booked flights as soon as they opened so I could choose desired seats. And got good prices. I don’t want to cancel and rebook and have to pay today’s rates. I paid for everything before due date. I made a big mistake using EZAir!!!
