Thanks

You have added the blue writing it appears.  It is not so stated on the email I received.  This is more pee poor communications from a staff that appears to be former Disney characters.  Honestly, I have been trying to take all of this in stride but after receiving this email and seeing the contradiction, I'm getting pretty disheartened.  

We received the same email today. But towards the end there was a paragraph that said...You currently have a package that doesn’t include these new benefits. But you can easily upgrade your package in the Cruise Personalizer® to take advantage of these additional perks.

We already purchased Princess Plus. Do they want us to pay more? Not good!

I'm having the same problem too. My husband came log in fine. Frustrating!!!

Thank you all. I just use mine to dry my hair a little, then, use a lg. curling iron or brush.

No they are still the same weak ones.

Here is the one on the Sky.

 

Thanks.

Can anyone tell me if the hair dryers have improved over the last few years ? Especially on the

Royal Class? Tying to lighten our load.

@Jules59 I don't know the wattage, but if you are particular about your dryer and have space I would bring your own.  Many lines have a style of dryer that is very hot, but not a strong "blow" and you have to hold the button down to keep power.  I'm not very picky about my hair so it works for me, but it was frustrating trying to do my daughter's hair (much thicker) when she cruised with us last summer on Anthem of the Seas.

Thank you pacruise804 maybe I should. I appreciate you're advice.

I am curious, because I want to know if I needed to bring my own blow dryer. Maybe I should ask this on the Princess board. Thank you.

No idea where to ask this, but does anyone know what the wattage is on the blow dryers on the new Sky Princess? Sorry if I should have posted this somewhere else.

franktown, I believe you/re right. I think they can only bring bottles and cans over.

Depends on a lot on difference things.  Do you want to be independent? Having no one to push you around? Do you need to keep your leg elevated at times during the day? Scooters do tend to take up more room. And can't be easily be stored i your cabin. Sorry, just things to think about.

Is this what you are talking about? The medallion fits into it?

Yes, would something like that work?

You can load the app before you are on board, but you do not have to. Our cruise is in 2 weeks (our first medallion cruise) so I loaded it and added all our info. I like being able to familiarize myself with it before I get on the ship. I don't want to "waste" a minute of cruising. 

 

You get a lanyard with your medallion, but the other accessories, if you want them, are  only available on the ship. 

 

Hope this helps!  Enjoy your cruise!!

Thanks again!

You can buy it on board. I got a lovely bracelet and necklace and I also retrofitted a locket I bought at Micheal's to wear on formal night. One of the women at our table kept it in her bra by using a fit bit zip clip. I am buying one of those for my next cruise. They aren't very big and you don't need to see them to use them. My partner just kept it in a pocket the whole time. It was easier for me to have a bracelet because alas, I don't always have pockets. Here is an image someone took of what is available.

I can speak to ordering drinks.  As tony pointed out it would not work so well in a crowded space like the theater.  I used it for my free beverage in the pool area and it worked perfectly.  Saw the waitress load up the drink on a tray at the bar, followed her tablet to my general vicinity where she started looking around for my face.  Her tablet seemed to get her within 20 feet or so before she resorted to looking for me.  Definitely fine for the pool decks with people on loungers but would become a game of where's waldo in a crowded theater for sure.

Thank you! I was also wondering if they sold something  you could buy before you got on the ship.

How do I fit Jewelry to fit my Medallion? This will be my first one

Very disappointing

I just got my tube in the mail today, so I'm going to give it a try.

Hope it helps.

I'm sure that's what it is. Isn't that what the sea trials are for? Hopefully just minor things.

For the latest Sky Princess info, go to Google drydock schedule - click on Princess - then on Sky. Pictures are from August 3 and 5 -- Sea trials are scheduled for Aug 24.

This a good site for all Princess drydock info.   

Thanks. So much info out there. I appreciate your help.

The ship sails in a little over two months!!  It is almost finished its build!!  I am not sure what you mean - other than "changes" or differences from it's predecessors.  Those changes can be seen in the deck plans.  

 

I'll check again

I know they where going to make a lot of changes to the Sky Princess and was wondering if all had been finalized.

I should think so.  They are selling voyages now.  Why wouldn't they be?

We book ours almost 2 years ago. Way before they started building her.

Have you seen their promotional video:

 

 

Yes, but thank you! They had a long ways to go when that was made

Deck plans are on the Princess Website.

Are they the final ones? Everything I saw  was before the ship was finished.
