Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. My experience on NCL (first and last time) was that it is quite OK to go dressed as if you are going working on a building site. Baseball caps, scruffy shorts and tee shirts that you have been wearing all week.
  2. We sailed two weeks ago and were on in 20 minutes but if you keep up with the news you will find they have changed the rules.
  3. Yes it will be for you from USA as you get your gong sent home and will be in the very short green lane
  4. OK for USA as you can have your gong sent home and be in the green lane. Do!
  5. I am the original poster, yes as has been stated and it was the same for us a couple of weeks ago; but if you check their website they have just changed the rules. No it will not be the same for UK and Canadian guests at Southampton because Princess will not ship our gongs to us and we only have the option to pick them up at the port and by default if you do not have your gong delivered to home you will automatically be in the blue lane. With the majority of guests boarding at Southampton being from UK then there will be long "blue line" queues. I have checked the website regarding "Princess Plus" and it states the following with no geographical exceptions stated, therefore if you have booked princess plus then request they deliver your gong to home. Seamless and Speedy Boarding with OceanReady “Green Lane” As part of our commitment to delivering the smoothest and fastest embarkation process in the industry, the Princess App now boasts an enhanced OceanReady process. Guests achieve express "Green Lane Status" by ensuring all travel information and documents are complete and by having the exclusive Princess Medallion delivered to home before embarkation day when they’ll proceed directly to the ship with no lines or hassles. For the ultimate convenience, both Princess Plus and Princess Premier packages include complimentary Medallion at home delivery. For guests on Princess Standard fares, a nominal shipping fee of $10 per stateroom will be added on Medallion/Accessory orders shipped to home.
  6. Hi, we have the same problem in UK but I have just checked their website regarding Princess Plus and it states the following "with no exceptions" and I have demanded that they ship our gongs otherwise we will automatically be in the "blue lane" behind people who either cannot or have not filled in their details.

Therefore if it states they deliver them with no exceptions then you could have a legal case to make them honor the details on their published website.
  7. Hi, We have sailed with Princess many times and are platinum members and this gives you priority boarding. But if you are from UK and boarding in Southampton you have to pick up your medallion at the port. The problem now with the new rules if you don't have your gong sent home (Cant if you live and boar in UK) then you are now automatically in the "blue" lane which means you will have to queue behind people who either can't or don't know how to fill in your details. The new rules have been made with USA in mind and They have not taken into account that the vast majority at Southampton will be picking up their gongs and now in the blue lane. They need an extra lane for people who have not filled in their details, one for people who have, one for the minority who will be in green lane and one for priority. There does not seem to be any incentive to bother filling in your details as you will still be in the same queue, and probably queuing up outside in a very long line.
