We have also cruised b2b from LA to Ft Lauderdale and back to LA. Very relaxing! We always like to get the flight out of the way first if our trip involves only one flight. Or the longest leg first if our trip involves two flights.

I didn't notice that, but I "think" it was just a way to abbreviate the wording on the app? 🤔

I just checked the app for our Nov 12th, Med/TA, it now shows the new Plus Package. All of our other 5 bookings have also been updated.

J & G are on the Sapphire, not the Grand.

Here is a better link to Part #1 of the Sun Princess videos...

The 1st youtube video is very interesting...

The cruise sets sail onboard Discovery Princess, November 25-29, 2023, from the Port of Los Angeles for a four-day West Coast Getaway to San Diego and Ensenada.

More details about this themed cruise can be found at www.princess.com/cruise-with-adam-savage. In addition, Savage is launching an exclusive video series that takes viewers on a fascinating up-close-and-personal journey of the astonishing wonders of Sun Princess, the cruise line's latest marvel that is currently under construction and set to debut in early 2024. Shot aboard Sun Princess at the Fincantieri shipyard, the first video is the series is available now and reveals never-before-seen glimpses of the groundbreaking Dome and Sphere features, as the series reveals the ship's birth from the ground up. Airing on his popular "Tested" channel on YouTube, with more than 6.3 million subscribers, the engaging series can be viewed at www.youtube.com/tested. "When I was asked what part of the ship I wanted to see during the christening of Discovery Princess in 2022, I chose the engine room and spent five hours learning about how the many complex systems onboard are able to efficiently -- and almost invisibly -- service thousands of customers' needs. The scale of it is staggering," said Savage. "The engineering of these ships, including Sun Princess, is riveting to me. Fresh off an Alaska cruise on Discovery Princess myself, I can't wait to meet fellow passengers and share all the exciting below-deck technology I've learned about in science and engineering in general and cruise ships in particular. Also, I absolutely LOVE trivia – it's going to be a fun time." Adam Savage theme cruise activities include: Introduction at Sailaway Party Q&A presentation in the Princess Theater Meet & Greets with guests for photo opportunities Exclusive glimpse into the heart of the ship as Savage personally guides guests through the theater, laundry, galley, and more on a Guided Ship Tour (reservations onboard; fee applies). Specialty dinners, hosted by Savage (may be reserved onboard; fee applies) Hosted Trivia Game Experience Camp Discovery activity tailored exclusively for younger cruisers Savage is a special effects designer and fabricator, television personality and producer. As one of the original co-hosts of the Emmy-nominated Discovery series MythBusters, he has dedicated his life to acquiring a diverse range of skills that enable him to transform his imaginative ideas into tangible creations. Throughout his career, Savage has crafted an impressive array of projects, spanning from colossal Buddha statues and futuristic weaponry to exquisite fine-art sculptures and spacesuits. His professional journey encompasses roles such as projectionist, animator, graphic designer, carpenter, interior and stage designer, toy designer, welder, and scenic painter. In 1993, Savage concentrated his career in the special effects industry, honing his skills through more than 100 television commercials and a dozen feature films, including Star Wars Episodes I and II, Galaxy Quest and the Matrix sequels. In 2003, he was chosen to produce and co-host the eight-time Emmy-nominated MythBusters. Fourteen years, 279 episodes, 1,015 myths, 2,950 experiments, and 83 miles of duct tape later, that version of the series ended in March 2016. Since then, Savage has hosted MythBusters Jr. and Savage Builds, and today, he is the editor-in-chief and lead content creator at Tested.com. In April 2022, Savage along with other Warner Bros. Discovery personalities including renowned fashion designer Randy Fenoli, esteemed chef Alex Guarnaschelli, and real estate virtuoso Page Turner officially named Discovery Princess, serving as the ship's godparents in a traditional maritime ceremony at the Port of Los Angeles.

Mario Propato is currently scheduled to go home in late October.

Not to worry, this usually happens on embarkation day as the ship uploads passengers data into their onboard systems. You'll be able to see your preassigned cabin soon. Have a great cruise!

Huh??? 🤷‍♂️

I show the same, maybe she has been sold??? 🤔

We found the weather to be very warm through-out the cruise. The only places where we needed a windbreaker was in the Falklands and in Ushuaia. I wore shorts for 95% of the trip. BA was in the low 90's and Santiago was low 80's.

We will be on this segment also, we will board in LA for the full 51 days. See you onboard! Cruise itinerary: 51 Days | 18 Ports | 2 Scenic Cruising

Same here, we have cruised plenty since the restart and we have yet to use the app to order any type of beverage.

From last week on the Emerald.

Going to grab my popcorn for this discussion!

We have two Japan ports (Tokyo and Osaka) on our 32-day, Coral Princess, Singapore to LA, in October of 2024. Much cooler time of year for sure.

Our TA received notification from Princess last week that the South America cruises will be available to book for Elites on July 26th, 8 am PST. And available for others on July 27th. Btw, they are not available to view until they are available to book.
