  1. I use dry cleaner bags over my dresses and tops and hubby’s dress shirts, a twist tie holds them together and they don’t wrinkle. I have magnetic hooks and items that don’t go in the dryer get hung from the ceiling in the shower excellent for wet bathing suits also. My own hangers come in handy for this.
  2. I take a large shopping type bag I have one I got in Alaska and hang it over a hanger in the closet and put my laundry in as I go. Throw in my detergent sheets easy to carry to and from the laundromat and my dried folded laundry goes on the shelf or in the drawer. I used a pop up hamper once but prefer the bag. Ships are not at capacity so I never had issues getting a machine.
  3. We got off the Majestic and our emails arrived at 4:02 AM the following day. I've seen posts from people saying they went to their spam folder so don't forget to check there.
  4. No charge for delivery with Princess Plus, just off the Majestic and never on my prior cruises.
  5. Have a solo cruise in August and was considering the bus, is the Fairhaven station the one closest to the start of Chuckanut Drive and is there ample parking? Much easier for me to cross the border and go from there than drive to Vancouver to board.
  6. Exactly our cruise on the Majestic in August 2021 had people who had an exemption and I knew that before we sailed. People need to read the Princess FAQ’s lol.
  7. We stayed recently at the Crowne Plaza and will be booking it again for our cruise in December. We walked the block or so to the Green Onion for Mexican and can't wait to go back. We ubered from LAX to the hotel and then to the pier in the morning.
  8. We are on the Discovery sailing August 14th, I received a casino offer that was too good to pass up for the Crown August 27th. Yep I booked it (solo) knowing full well the issues that ship is having and will be onboard unless Princess decides to cancel it. We were on the Majestic from San Pedro to Vancouver April 30th to May 7th and only left the ship in San Francisco, hubby has some knee issues so we were quite happy to stay on the ship if there is anything I really want to see or do I'll have my chance on the Discovery. Plus I get 2 credits 😀 so just need one more solo cruise and I will be elite in December for our Hawaii trip. Enjoy your cruise!!!
  9. Sorry maybe it was Luggage Express?? or something I filled out the form put out my bags and never saw them again until my flight landed.
  10. I used the Port Valet in FLL since I had a 6:15 PM flight and definitely did not want to drag 2 big bags around. It was worth every cent of the extra $50 it cost me, will look into Southwest though for next time.
  11. We just got back from a Wine Country cruise (LA to Vancouver) and next up is a VIP on the Discovery in mid August, I received an offer for a Prestige Cruise hubby wasn't too interested in the limited choices so I went ahead and booked Alaska again for 6 days after I disembark. Ports are slightly different and this one is on the Crown. From what I'm reading it may be a slow cruise to nowhere which is fine. Got a great offer while on board for a free mini suite, FP, and P+ but have to sail by Dec 3rd. We haven't been to Mexico for a few years so I am kind of leaning in that direction but those are filling up fast.
  12. We are Canadian and drove across the border for our cruise from San Pedro up to Vancouver. We got our NAAT test at Walgreen's and as per prior cruises Princess was happy with that test. If you're entering Canada for your cruise don't forget about the ArriveCAN app.
  13. Used the Medallion app for 6 cruises starting in 2019 with only one minor glitch that sorted itself out a couple of weeks before I cruised. People are spending way too much time trying to force their info into the app IMO. If something like the first half of my B2B disappeared I just ignored it for a few weeks and would try one time if it didn't work I put it away. It eventually fixed itself. Worst case it gets entered at the pier. People were trying to enter their dining up to a year before their cruise, choosing their embarkation times months instead of weeks before, filling out the Health Questionnaire way way in advance of the 24 hours before they embarked. It would be helpful if Princess could add a timeline to their FAQ's would alleviate a lot of stress for people. I personally love the Medallion and have from the first time I used it, way more positives than negative. I think I have used all the features except for Crew Chat while onboard.
  14. Just got off the Majestic Princess and witnessed quite a few jackpots being paid out over the 7 days. I came home with 6K after I put 1K onto my shipboard account and I only play slots and am not a max bettor. Last cruise I did very well also and came home with quite a bit more than I went with. Best part is being Canadian there are no taxes withheld. My come back and play offer given to me the last night was a Free Mini Suite with Princess Plus and a nice amount of Free Play. No way I would get that playing table games which I hate lol.
  15. On Princess once you log into the machine it will tell you how much Free Play you have and you can select how much you want to use. I typically download $100 and when I am done I put the money I won into my bank on the machine. You have the option to either leave it in there or cash it in, but it updates immediately and will tell you each time how much you have in there. You do have to cash out on the last night the casino is open. The Free Play account will do the same, so the next time I log in it will tell me I have say $400 of the $500 I started with. Easy to use and I like not having to carry $$ around with me.
  16. You have to call the casino department and ask them to do it, no way that I am aware of to do it on your own.
