It I usually an early lunch around noon so we just forgo breakfast and have dinner around 8
-
So it is not MDR ingredients even. And yes it is very special
-
What do you consider a main ? We never eat 3 meals a day at home and on ship dinner is only an app and a main or sometimes just 2 apps. Why would I want to spend an extra $30 a day per person for ? An app and salad and dessert sounds like a $14.95 casual meal
-
We spend most of our time in Reserve dining and there is no comparison
-
The desserts are way fancier than anything I have ever seen in a MDR. Same for squid ink pasta etc. The head chef always does an incredible job even better than chefs table or even 360
-
15 drinks a day somehow seems to work for me. Haven’t had a photo take in at least 15 days excepting for obligatory ones with the captain at MTG. I will save the $60 a day for the 2 of us
-
Those combos are very boring to me. It is like a big hunk of meat 4 out of 5 days. Not for me. I doubt we will ever sail a sphere class ship and only split our time between Grand and Royal. Our next cruises are on Majestic, Grand, Grand, Majestic , Emerald and Discovery. That takes us up to June 2026

There really is a big difference between a couple of free cocktails and a 3 course sit down luncheon with dishes you would never get in the MDR

Do I need to sit and wait for my OceanNow order
memoak replied to Silverspringcruiser's topic in Princess Cruises
If I am hungry I don’t think I would want to wait 49 minutes for some food. There are lots of places I can walk up and get some food Also super easy to walk up to a bar for a drink -
From my conversations on the Grand last month with both future cruise consultant and the captain it is really up to each ship to determine which they want to do

Day 1 of the new Premier Package has arrived
memoak replied to grimace95120's topic in Princess Cruises
If you are talking about exchanging your elite or suite mini bar just tell your steward they will have room service take care of it for you. We always wait till day 2 because embarkation day can be a little crazy -

Dine My Way & all new Dining questions since cruising restart!!
memoak replied to Host CJSKIDS's topic in Princess Cruises
All MDR’s have the same menu. If you don’t like the menu your options are buffet, casual dining or specialty dining depending on what is available -
Is Michelangelo the “traditional “ dining room ? If so there will only be those two dining times for those who want to harken back to the old days with set tables and wait staffs
-
If you gamble 2+ hours a day consistently on a cruise you should be getting some bounce back offers. Playing just a few days a cruise will not do much. If you play slots it depends on amount played not whether you win or lose. On tables they look at average bet and time played. We usually get 30% to 50% off rack rate for suites. You can also get free interiors and possible free play
-
I did not check what ports are on that cruise but there are countries you do need a passport for. Also if you have an emergency outside of the US you may need a passport to fly home

Dine My Way & all new Dining questions since cruising restart!!
memoak replied to Host CJSKIDS's topic in Princess Cruises
The dine line is usually one of the options shown on your cabin phone. Look for “Dining” -
We board the Majestic 3 weeks from Sunday. Yes we have been to the Ale House
-
In any Canadian port there is one bar open per deck
-
How/when can you obtain a check in time on Princess?
memoak replied to HM129's topic in Princess Cruises
We don’t usually have carryons Just put luggage tags on everything. They always show up in the cabin 65 cruises and counting -
Do I need to sit and wait for my OceanNow order
memoak replied to Silverspringcruiser's topic in Princess Cruises
I am glad to be a peasant When we are in the buffet we order drinks from the buffet servers. -
No just make sure you your passport and pick up your medallion at port and get on board no big deal
-
When I am on shore the medallion stays in my pocket no reason to ever take it out until back on board
-
Kahului Ale House perhaps?
-
Shirt, pants , shoes what else do you need ?
