Elites- You can have high tea delivered to your stateroom, a perk some forget about.

It was a pretty impressive set up last month on the Enchanted. Scones, tea sandwiches  and some beautiful desserts with tea and coffee on the balcony.  Check with room service to see how far in advance you need to place your order, it was 24 hours on the Enchanted. 
(It’s the same set up as in the dining room but a more peaceful experience) 
 

They are magnetized enough to stick to my fridge. 

This may help, the cabins are located in the same place

The sustainable watch band worked best for me. 
Bought it and have already used it on 4 cruises, it’s rather sturdy and I cleaned it with just soap and water.

If the lanyard isn’t your thing, visit the shop once on board to try other options.

Share how one could do that 

I recently used $50 OBC and played slot machines for days on the winnings of that $50. I won, I lost and cashed out at $54. My goal was to just accumulate points to get more free offers. 

Does a Casino forum/thread  still exist on Cruise Critic, could anyone share a link?   (I searched but I can't locate it) Thank You!

How many nights do you have to sleep in the casino to get a true casino offer with free cabin, etc.?   Or maybe better question-   How much do you have to donate to the Princess casino to get noticed for the true casino offer?  Not that I would ever consider doing either to get a free cabin, just being very curious.

It's not about the money you spend but the points you gain. It's a possibility if you play smart to recycle the same money over and over to gain points.

It's a misconception that all Casino Offers are for high rollers, I assure you that's not the case.

Thank you for sharing! I like this. Is it for the inaugural cruise or the inaugural season?

It’s for the season.

White for inaugural year, the Sea Witch is your captain circle level

I was curious if the App will show when my medallions for my upcoming cruise have shipped. And if so, where would I see it posted. 

I received an email when it shipped wIth a tracking number

Were both sides of Princess Cays open for lunch?

It wasn’t the cruise prior, the bar on the right side wasn’t either.

Hopefully this changes

Caribill - great point. 

 

To confirm, you mean roll off / debark with your luggage in tow as opposed to leaving it out the evening before for the staff to consolidate and deliver to Customs, correct?

 

And if you don't mind my asking, to whom would you direct a request for an early departure on Princess?  Customer Service on board?

 

Thanks again.

If you walk off (that’s what the group is called) You arrive at the designated area a bit earlier 😉 than the time listed on the info sheet left in your cabin.

Today was Capri by 7:30Am 

You carry your own luggage off unassisted and are the first group off.

You don’t need to make prior arrangements to walk off 

We were walking off today by 7:15am.

Walk offs were told to arrive to the Capri dining by 7:30am but knowing better we were there by 6:55am

Is the split only among the waitstaff for your table the night you tip, or is it split will everyone in that dining room?

The waitstaff for your table. 
We had the same table/time/staff each night 

We extra tipped our wait team tonight and while chatting we learned 2 things

1. Princess restructured and did away with the Asst Waiter position so they have just Junior Waiters now, which was a demotion for some.

2. Your Wait Team splits all tips evenly even if you tip one person more. We lost our initial waiter after 8 days and so tipped the Jr waiter more since he was with us longer but it’s all split evenly. 
 

Shared this on another thread but since it’s for the Enchanted, thought I would share here as well.

TV Inputs 

Found it!!

It’s impossible (at least for me) to move it away from the wall for fear of breaking.

I can’t see a way with the remote to change input settings, but it’s worth a shot.

Hi Jadn13 -  If you don't mind a few questions-

 

1. How crowded have the pools been on your ship?

 

2. How busy is the basketball court (I have two teen basketball players that can't wait to get at this court)?

 

3. Are there many families with teenagers on board?

 

4. Does Princess offer pre-made PB&J sandwiches, called "Uncrustables?"  

 

Thanks!

1.The deck chairs seem to have been full but not over crowded.

2. The “sport court”  is multi purpose so it’s used for various activities throughout the day but anytime I went for a walk it was empty

3. Not many teens or kids currently on board, I have only seen a handful of kids.

4. PBJ is on the kids menu (room service) but not in a crustable form

On the WIFI package included, 2 questions: 1) was the speed decent or slow? and 2) Is there a limit in minutes you have  ? I know some other cruise lines give you 250 minutes per cabin, or similar..thanks!

 

Big Al

No limit of minutes and I was able to stream TV series on my phone.

Last Day

Friday Day 10 (20)

Crew Covid Testing- I was told that all crew are tested day 8, today was day 8.

If you see a crew change or some missing, this is why. 

Finally went into the Amalfi dining room, it was for wine tasting (if you’re Elite it’s a nice little perk) 

It does have some windows in the back but as for More, It doesn’t feel like it.

I’m still saying Capri is your best bet for dining room because of location. 

Hi All!

I think everyone did a great job of answering questions, if you still have a question we only have 2 sea days left so ask away! 

Sea Day- lots of activities today! The crafts are even fun!
