Cbtours

Depends if I can do 15 in 3 days! Not that caffeine affects me lol

I was on princess live chat line the other day and asked. I was told it was $35? even for the 3/4 day cruises and as it wasnt transferrable it would probably be cheaper to just buy individually.

I hope it’s shown on tv etc

I’m quite confident attest is just that. I’ll find out in 12 days 🥰🥰🥰

Mine has gone green all by itself today plus medallion finalised all by itself! Super excited 🥳🥳🥳

Hi, so I’m VERY excited today to log in and we are green fir go! All our medallion orders green too. We only taking freebies til we check accessories when we get on board. I’ve secured our internet in all 4 B2B so I can keep reporting as much as possible and answering any questions. roll on 16th June right through to 3 July. First B2B ever and first in a suite!

We’re on the first cruise 🥳

I’ll post as many menus and prices I can find in 16th June 🥰

I’ll check on the 16th 👍

I’ll def be finding out because we’re in a suite too for 4!!! We were able to book first night only too. our PvP double checked and told us it was definitely embarkation night each itinerary and that we didn’t need to book as our cabin steward would have all the paperwork in our cabin. I even mentioned to him that the official suite benefit brochure stated that it’s only for cruises 6 nights or longer. He double checked up the command chain and said we would def get it. on a live chat line over a different question another time, I threw the question in and was told it’s only for cruises 6 days. so I guess I’ll see and will def let you know 🥰

That’s seems to be the normal for most of us. Princess have assured us it will all go green once we complete health assessment in final hours.

has anyone noticed going into dining in the app today that prices have gone up? Sabatinis now $29 and Bayou $35

Thanks so much for allowing us to travel along on your cruise via our armchairs! Great reports. Looking forward to comparing when we get on in 12 days !!!

we've been hooked since the first day too!

I have tried all of the above lol

Id be more than happy too! It still wouldn't get them on lol. They don't trust being on the water when they cant see land hahahaha

What a great idea. We're on the first princess cruise out of Brisbane for 4 x B2B but in a suite, cos great prices and it gets us to elite (cos needed 8 more credits and we get two each cruise) so our Oct one will be elite. Just hanging to be on the water again lol

Presume they will keep updated via our cruise line (Princess). We are booked on the round Aus October 22 which includes Hobart and Burnie. Wont be a big deal for us as been to tassie many times, but might affect others wanting to see. Hobart especially is well worth seeing.

Great info even if we on Princess. Helps to prepare for possible similar scenarios

good one! Our first ever cruise was a Christmas cruise on Dawn Princess (now the P & O explorer) and we were hooked! It was the most magical time ever, marred only by our family not being there. My dream would be to all go on a Christmas cruise, but I guess it aint ever going to happen lol

Added to my list! 13 days to go

The black pudding and kippers would get me on board!!!!

For those cruising on the first few cruises out of Brisbane on Coral Princess, some people have been asking questions and I (and I presume anyone else cruising) will be happy to find out the answers and post them as we go along. I will list all the questions I have been asked here so we don't have to go hunting through the original post to find the questions). Feel free to add questions here and watch for answers. We are on the first four cruises B2B so can start answering from 16th June. Elorac123 - would you mind posting if they have the Zumba classes listed in the patter, not for me I’m all zumbered out but I am taking a younger friend on her first ever cruise on the 23rd and know she would be thrilled to pack her Zumba gear. CDaze71 Here are my HEAPS of questions. Having the 5 green Ticks, did it really make it fast to check-in ? What did you have to show (just the app to show your group plus some vaccination paperwork etc ?) When you arrive at the BICT port, were they very strict with peoples arrival times ? By that I mean did others in later groups arrive early and were they allowed in the terminal and therefore onboard early or were they told to come back at the time your group is supposed to arrive? Did the medallion really work like Princess advertise it will? Was it really easy quick to order a drink from anywhere on the ship? Any issues with it? Any tips? What time were the nightly Theatre Shows? Just want to see about timings of shows clashing with my dinner reservations. Could I please see a copy of the “FIRST SEA DAY Patter Activities? I want to see the activities being offered on my very favourite day on any cruise, the first sea day. Where did they make you wear a mask? With Princess Plus, did you find there are plenty of drinks in the $16 and under prices? Can you order two drinks at once? My example is I’m sitting in the Wheelhouse Bar with hubby having a pre-dinner cocktail, and I also want to grab a glass of wine to take with me to the restaurant to start with. This way I don’t have to worry the drinks waiter straight away. There is something else you will be able to investigate, DRINK PRICES and price hikes. I wonder if Drink Prices will go up now on our cruise of the 26th, now that Princess have announced the new Premier Package starting on cruises departing after the 25th June and includes drinks up to $22. On your 3 cruises before ours you will be able to see if there are plenty of choices in the $16 and under prices. Julie had a good idea, if you could please post the Crooners Bar prices, Julie can check those against her photos of prices from 2019.

Not being an investor, I know nothing about individual share trading, but I see USA posts where it appears common to have 100 princess shares to quality for the extra OBC. I have been reading everything I can about this and understand the benefits. I am thinking it sounds worth doing to score the OBC especially as we have a number of cruises booked. My questions is whether it is simply finding a broker (even through my Westpac account) and asking them to buy 100 CCL shares? Its the only thing I would have in my portfolio as Im not an investor but I reckon it will earn more dividend than current banking accounts!!! Then I get a certificate that I send to Princess for all my booking numbers??? Any advice would be most appreciated.
