I think that's sort of obvious... Maybe they should add step 0: make sure your device is powered on. :)

Our bars are filled with your favorites spirits... Doesn't mean it's free.

Including any occupant ?

Carnival: I-95 Princess: M1

I posted that here a year or two ago. And was bashed by a couple posters. One of which is posting in this thread. Too funny.

No offense. But, you seem to have overlooked clicking your heels together. Based on the posts here, there are many, many people who will cruise on princess ... no matter what! Why spend money on making something good ?

I think the finally is ... princess wasn't doing it when the shipping was free for the customer. Now that princess is charging, they are happy to charge canadians!

Of course not. That would make the old people really cranky. So, they just let them in, too...

I appreciate the reminder that this is still an ongoing problem.

But, it should be "dollar-twenty-five tree". But, best buy gets away with a misleading name, so why not dollar tree?

Wow, that's cool ... and sensible ... and contradicts many previous posts here. A good change! Maybe princess is not trying as hard to annoy their customers... Until the $25 medallion kettle fee is implemented.

1) Make it work 2) Everything else '1' apparently eluded accenture, as they are out, and someone else (can't remember who) is in.

I would say ... start near your home. Much less stressful. If a suitcase gets lost ... and it's when you are flying ... it hardly matters.

From your lips to john padgett's ears. Or, maybe hopefully not.

Thank you for your pronouncement. In the original post, the poster asks a question about 'Grand Class Ships' Someone then posting about 'Grand Princess' does not deserve your correction, as it is most certainly a grand class ship. And, it was a few posts later that sapphire was mentioned.

Isn't grand princess a grand class ship? Gee, with the name, one would think so...

They are busy updating prices to annoy as many guests as possible. Coming soon, a one-time $25 fee for accessing the princess website. (one fee per booking)

Ding. Ding. Ding. Survey says... NUMBER ONE ANSWER. What I find amusing ... now, with all the packages which include crew appreciation... Lots and lots of cruisers have the 'tips' rolled into the cruise fare. But, I have read here many, many times that the cruise lines can't do this. It violates some accounting law for publicly traded companies, blah, blah... Always posted by self-professed experts. To save money and regulations, carnival corp set up a panamanian corporation to run their onboard gaming. I always assumed that if carnival corp want to roll tips into cruise fares that they were clever enough, and had enough lawyers to do so... And, who is in this customer facing tip pool seems to be very fluid. At one time princess mentioned front desk, shops and entertainment. Now, they do not. All I know is that I have heard from people I know on princess that the 'salary' sucks, and lots of them have left. Virgin voyages seems to be a popular destination. You might see a maitre d' you recognize there. P.S. When crew says 'salary' for their tip income, it sounds off to me. But that is what they say...

I assume he meant 'remove barriers to money flying out of your wallet'... After all, he came from Disney.

Farewell cruise to Alang ?

No offense, but I don't think they like you. Both you and the double-occupancy folks pay the same cruise fare (usually). But with double occupancy, the cruise line gets a chance at onboard revenue from 2 people in the cabin, rather than 1. Two people drinking. Two people gambling. Two people buying excursions...

No. That remains free!

Yes. But it's small compared to the charge when you enter a lifeboat during an emergency...

As long as customers keep showing up, Princess is genius for adding the new fees. I'm sure, until this is widely rolled out, there will be lots of people on ships expecting the old rules, and in for a bad surprise.

The link I posted has additional pictures showing other components. But, you're right. The battery is the largest component.
