Thank you - looking forward to my cruise.

First cruise on Princess next year - trying to understand how to sign up for dinning. We would like "Anytime dinning". We did get the drink pkg so will be picking two dinners but always want the anytime dining for the other. I have called Princess twice and stated what I want but due to a language barrier am unsure if they understood. Is there any place to view what I picked? I am use to Carnival where it is stated on your confirmation. Any help would be appreciated.

I understand you can make reservations from the phone app - daughter and husband will be in another room. Can you request by how many people or do you have to link your reservation with theirs to make reservations?
-
Just booked October 2022 - how soon do you sign up for the entertainment?
-
Just got notification this morning that the cruise has been cancelled - disappointed but will start looking for a new one for 2022. Hopefully everything will be back to normal then.

I have been booked for this cruise since January - Barcelona/France/Italy. Final payment not due until February 2021 but saw that Vision of the Seas would be moving to the Caribbean next summer. Looked on line and still showing the cruise I booked on as available. Probably not going due to medical reasons, but wondered what others have heard. Hopefully I can move it out a year otherwise I guess my deposit is gone.

We have cruised with children and now grandchildren. Eastern/Western are both good - though I prefer the beaches on the eastern. With a child that young excursions can be limited. A beach day is always perfect - make sure you bring some water wings for her. The kids club is only for specific hours so you will have plenty of time to play with your daughter. We had one grandchild that hated the kids club - she ended up with us all week and we still had a great time. A lot of wonderful memories!

Signed up for the Med cruise next May 2021 - what do you think my chances are for the trip to occur. Trying to decide which excursions but don't won't to do anything yet since we don't know what will happen.
-
On a RC cruise next May - none of the excursions take us to the real statue of Michelangelo. Can anyone suggest a tour from the cruise port that would work. We want to see Pisa also.
-
got back from our cruise - the stop in the Dominican was great. Just stayed at the pool area at the port. didn't eat or drink but saw others doing it and did not hear of any problems. Like this port much better than Margaritaville. Pool was great!
-
My cousin called me - 3M has now pulled out everyone from their company there. It was in the news in Minneapolis.
-
I will be on in 2 weeks also -
-
All the news this week about the issues there not sure I even want to get off the boat. Definitely not taking an excursion but if you have been there before did you feel safe at the carnival swim areas?

Just got back from a Carnival Cruise - thinking about Royal C. next time. A few questions. Do they play games around the pool with the cruise director? Granddaughter had a lot of fun this year on Carnival Can anyone tell we the differences between the two. She loved the dancing, etc. She is not crazy about the shows.

Printed the boarding pass yesterday - not sure how they know when you are coming into the building. Does the barcode alert them so you are sent to this line?
-
How do they handle young children (2 years old). He probably will not like waiting a long time? Can you bring the stroller?
-
My grandson will be there in June almost 3 years old - will they offer him drinks while he is in there playing?
-
We have a 31 foot RV - pull a car behind - can you park at the port with an RV that long. Last time we were there for a cruise we were in the parking deck and I don't remember an area for this
-
We were at the late seating - food was good, just the wait was really long. Lots of empty tables around us by the end of the week. Guess they ate in the back of the ship. I like a good comic also, he just stepped over the line. Some people got up and left. I would have also but my granddaughter was still there with some friends and not at our table. I should have pulled her out. She knew we were upset and came and talked to us afterwards. She said that the worst one that week and the others did not discuss what he did. I hope Carnival will listen to my complaints and review what is allowed and what is not.
-
She was 18 - first time being able to do anything like that. I just did not want her to think this was normal.

My husband, granddaughter were on the Valor June 25th. We are almost at platinum level. Would like to say this was the best cruise but can't. The staff was great but had to wait a long time for dinner to be served. Think there were problems in the kitchen because the staff was actually almost running to try to get the food to you as quickly as possible. Entertainment was fine except for the Comedy Club. Went in one night and there was a guy there from NC - started out funny (yes we were warned it was R rated) but then it went down hill from there. Nothing but porno - he discussed things I cannot even put in this review. Carnival needs to review the acts better. Went in the dance club one night (had been going on/off all week). On the 6th night of our cruise a girl backed her boyfriend up against the rails and immediately started a lap dance on him. She got the results she wanted but to think that my granddaughter was in there really upset me. I asked the guards when it started becoming a strip joint. Yes I have written Carnival - will have to think twice about them in the future.
-
Wondered if there is a place close by the port that is great for dinner - something fun (we will have my 18 year old grandaughter with us. Also can she go into the casino's?
-
I have a Kindle and listen to audible books all the time. I usually have to be near a WiFi to make them work properly. Question - has any one used their Kindle on any of the ships without any problems?

We buy Walmart Equate Brand motion sickness pills. We were on the Big Red Boat years ago and went thru a hurricane. All 5 of my family did not get sick about the only ones on the cruise that didn't. We did start taking 2 days in advance to get in our system. As the ships have gotten larger I no longer take any medicine, we just make sure the grandchildren do.
New to Princess - Cruise next year out of Italy

Please let me know approx. when you will be able to board the ship upon arrival the first day. Do you pick a boarding time? If so, how far out can you do this?
