QR Code/Boarding Pass on new app - Question!!
memoak replied to dixiejen's topic in Princess Cruises
Never been asked for QR code. Just medallion and passport. They do want to take a new security photo whenever my facial hair changes -
The “new” plus will show Plus Beverages + Juice bar
-
We have changed approaches over the last year or so and don’t even show up at the terminal until after 11:30 or so to avoid the lines

Do you have to tip on excursions you already paid for?
memoak replied to 1412p0oi's topic in Ask a Cruise Question
I get the impression that most of these people do not want to tip anyone be it a waiter, barber Uber driver etc. Personally I would rather pay $20 for a meal here plus a tip than $50 for a curry dish in London -
Coughing really has little to do with Covid in many cases. I have had Covid twice and never had a cough or major symptoms that matter. Many people cough frequently due to allergies or lack of complete lungs due to surgery

Oops I clicked on the wrong poster. Sorry

The OP is in England no option to have mailed

Discuss Implementation of Smoking Policy
memoak replied to CC Help Michell's topic in Princess Cruises
Where did you ever get the idea that smoking was banned in the casino ? -
Never seen anyone refuse a tip but still don’t understand all the people who walk around with all those dollar bills. We tip out our favorite servers, bartenders and steward at the end of the the cruise

I’m not touching that complete button fot all the tea in china. And I am using the old app as long as I can
-
I have said it before and I will say it again. They leave tables empty on first night for suites. We have never ever had to book in advance. For 360 you will be contacted and given a list of available days and sittings. This is how it has worked for us the entire last year
-
It is always up to you if you want to tip extra. If you order a drink over your package maximum you are billed the difference plus 18% on the difference
-
These are all available in full suites. Water is brought every day or sometimes in groups of 4. Fruit basket is always there on sailing day (we always have it taken away. There will be one small flower but not a huge bouquet We have sailed in suites the last 2 years (4-5 a year) and always had these items

I am really hoping this post is tongue in cheek

Emerald Princess - 23 Dec -Panama Canal full transit
memoak replied to mrell345's topic in Princess Cruises
We have always found all the menus for the day on the old app once on board. Sometimes we have to log off the app and log back on using name and cabin number -
Don’t want the Platium Bar Set Up
memoak replied to happiness is cruising's topic in Princess Cruises
Platinum Captains Circle benefits do not include mini bar setup. You need to be elite or in a full suite to get that. So if you are platinum you don’t need to ever think about your choices -
Juice bar should be included with a plus or premier package I believe
-
Also unless you are in an owners suite you will not have a dining room table so you will either eat room service meals at the coffee table or carry it out to the balcony

Emerald Princess Review 23 Dec to 07 Jan - Panama Canal full transit
memoak replied to mrell345's topic in Princess Cruises
Just to note you get priority boarding not priority entry. Also the free minutes never lasted us more than a few days so we always had to buy more minutes, cheaper for us to pay for unlimited with a package or standalone. Elite still get free laundry and mini bars -
I know 4 days don’t have one but thought longer ones did. Could be 6 days or more. I rarely sail less than 10 days unless it is part of a back to back. On a 4 day in September we were given a free dinner to make up for no most traveled luncheon

A few notes about the Discovery Jan 6-13
memoak replied to Cruise Raider's topic in Princess Cruises
You say the music went on all night. Is that 24/7 or just till midnight or do. We generally turn in around 1am or so and always sail in aft suites and have never encountered music that late. Sailing on the Crown out of SF in 2 weeks -
The are referring to the suite lounge which is only found on Royal class ships with limited menus
-
There is no need to book in advance tables are set aside for suites. Also the 360 dinner is only on 2 ships, the suite lounge and concierge only on Royal class ships. Since the OP did not say which ship this should be noted
-
We were called about a week before sailing to pick day and sitting
