Just received notice that our cruise to the Canarias has been shortened by 2 days. It was to have started 26 Oct 2022 now delayed to 28 Oct 2022. Well that's screwed us up a lot.Thanks Princess for nothing.

Princess stil doesn' t quite get it togeather on this function. Just take your paper documents.

Thanks skynight

Which dining room is it for club class please 

Club class dining is starboard side in the  Estrella dining room

Many cruises under our belts but on Princess we have only been on the Grand class. DW is wheelchair bound and sometimes it's a battle to get along the gangways. We are going on the Sky Princess 11 June and wonder if the gangways are wider or narrower  ?

Back to normal again, Hallelujah

Ah the tecki children are at it again. All OK 2 days ago but no longer. I used to be able to switch between my details and dear wifes details on the one iphone , now the app only shows mine.

Green then today yellow. We are 11 days away from our cruise and am wondering, what happens on sail day when health checks can't be entered, if the app crashes. Oh well take the paper copy I suppose is the answer.

Who is the Maitre d' on the Sky Princess ?

We are signed up for a cruise in November and decided to get a jump on things by downloading the Medallion app and entering some of the information.   We've sailed with Princess before and it recognized us and pre-filled some information such as passports, etc.

 

However, when we tried to accept the passage contract it just went into an endless loop and would not even let us exit the app.  Had to reboot the phone.

I've been reading some horror stories about people having difficulties with the app and am wondering how bad it is if we just choose to ignore it and turn up at the dock with our usual paperwork (including vaccine certificates) and just show those to shoreside staff and be issued a medallion at that point?  

 

If we do that will the boarding process really be extended and might there be any other negative consequences for the rest of our cruise?

 

To put this in perspective, we will be on the Discovery Princess and it will only be for four days.

 

Thanks for your thoughts/experience.

Not to worry. Hard copy is still good and by the way, those who get put into the green lane are sometimes at a disadvantage, as the line may be so long that the slow lanes are processed faster.

Still worthless.  The 2 for 1 dining has been replaced with a free bottle of wine in a specialty restaurant on the first night.

Surly you mean bottle of paint stripper😇

After the update, my vaccination card magically vanished.   No big deal as I just uploaded it again.   This time however, both mine and my DH show as "Document Pending Approval".   This still shows "Document Pending Approval" after 3 days.   Is this happening to anyone else?

Yes mine is the same, perhaps they wait until you enter the covid clear check; at Southamption it's within 48 hours prior to sail time. DW and I have entered all other requirements and are in the green lane. Moto is take your original paper documents with you,

Too many glitches so uninstalled the app then reinstalled it. I have now lost the health section from "suggested" where I had uploaded covid pass. All gone !  signed frustrated.

Logging in via "Try our Web version" method rather than Medallion. All logged in except health status and it came up green lane. That green status has dissapeared and health status entry box  won't open up.  Help needed please.

Question ? Which dining room has the club class area on Sky Princess.

Prior to covid, on our cruises we used to get some free internet minutes as we are elite and book full suite cabin. Is this still the case ? 

Our documents say that boarding starts at 1230 we normaly go straight to the dining room for lunch. 

Pre covid lunch was available 1200 until 1330.  Question is, is lunch in a dining room still available and if so which dining room on the Sky. Thanks.

Thanks CC travelers.

DW and I are trying to invite a dear friend into our already booked penthouse suite. He would be sleeping on the sofa bed. Is there a privacy curtain to seperate the main bed and the sofa / couch ?

Thank you! Did you have to do anything to get them boarded with you? Or just bring them?

They just taged along, one pushing my wifes wheel chair but I guess it depends on the local staff.

We had the same situation a while back. We managed to get them boarded with us but they could'nt use club class dining.

This is our first medallion cruise and our first one after we decided to stop cruising due to covid. We have set up every thing on the personaliser except the Medallion Pay. We understand that we ( unlike our friends stateside ) won't get the beast until we are at the port. Is this the reason I can't get my credit card details to save or do I have to wait until nearer sail date,😒 which is in Oct 2022 from Southampton. I see we have to go to the delay of the blue lane, not good to have that forced upon elite and full suit plus wheelchair. Previously we were escorted on board pretty dam quick. 

Nice to ring the changes sometimes. All helps to delay the old  alzheimers. Oh dear now where is the emoji, 😭 I'm getting land sick.

Reminiscing all those cruises of past years, taking time now to rest before we sail again. Every blessing to the crew members of the past and future
