I booked business class airfare roundtrip to Rome for May cruise using EZ Air.  At the time, when I made final payment for cruise, airfare as paid for as well. Original flights were on AA but several weeks later I found seats on United for a little over $1300 cheaper (also through EZ Air). So, I cancel the AA flights and booked the United. Can someone please tell me how/when I will receive the difference in what I originally paid and the cost of our flights now? I am assuming since it was done 45 days before the flight, I am entitled to a refund and not a cruise credit?? I have called Princess and received absolutely no satisfaction at all. 

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help answer my question.

My wife and I are transferring directly to FCO. Would you like to share a transport?

What day/ship are you transferring from the ship to the airport?

The only thing Frontier Airlines DOESN'T charge for is to use the bathroom, and who knows, that could be coming soon! 🤣

If you normally have to pay to check luggage when flying on United, you will have to with EZ Air as well. If you have a United credit card or are an elite with United you will get one free checked bag. If you are flying international, I believe you get you one free checked bag also but absolutely sure about this as we always try to fly AA.

Cigar smoke is absolutely disgusting.

Thanks so much for posting this. We are currently booked on Baltic in May and was a little concerned about making full payment next month, but with "Cruise with Confidence" policy covering our cruise now, I have no problem making final payment when due. 

We are thinking about doing the Sky Princess back to back cruises on November 20 and November 27th (east and west Caribbean). Could anyone please tell me what the protocol would be for presenting a Covid-19 test for the second cruise or if we will have to have one? 

Thanks in advance for a reply.

We tried that with the excuse we were arguably on a B2B. But it was booked as a two week cruise so no Elite perks until the next booked cruise sadly!

That is exactly what I meant (2nd post) when I said it would be the next cruise. It was booked as a 20 day cruise and NOT a b2b.

You will receive Elite Status on your NEXT cruise following this 20 day cruise.

This is great news as we are booked on 11/04/21 Transatlantic and I was a little worried about it. Original date was 10/31/21 so we were not covered.

Got notice from travel agent this morning that our September 4th Baltic Hertiage cruise has been canceled. She said she received email from Princess that states "As a result of the recent UK Government announcement on the roadmap to ease lockdown and international travel restrictions, we have cancelled UK-based cruises sailing roundtrip from Southhampton through September 25, 2021".  

Princess will move us to the 9/3/22 cruise (and price protect us) if we desire as option 1. 

Option 2 is a 110% Future Cruise Credit

Option 3 is a full refund.

We have 4/15 to select an option or it will default to FCC option.

We were told the May 8th TA would open for booking on Oct 13th.

It was originally said October 2nd so I will believe it when I see it...lol

Our transatlantic on the Enchanted in April 2020 was canceled. We were told it would sail now in May and it would open for booking on October 2. Needless to say, October 2 has come and gone and nothing has shown up. I do realize it is showing Caribbean cruises in January forward but with several weeks of gaps in the scheduling. So, it leaves to wonder if the Enchanted will really come to the US at all. Please no rude comments as they really aren't necessary. 

I am not too terribly interesting in cruising if I have to follow the submission that RCL and Norwegian presented.  Our next cruise is a 14 day Caribbean cruise and they are suggesting nothing longer than 10 days) and if we can't get off the ship except to go on a ship arranged excursion, I will pass. I take Caribbean cruises to go shopping and have seen most of all of the sites in islands I want to see. 

Can anyone provide with me with what might be the obstruction from the balcony in M104? It is called "Deluxe Balcony Stateroom (Obstructed View)" but I cannot see what the obstruction is. Thanks for any help.

As of today, I seriously doubt that EP will participate any Caribbean cruises in 2021/2022.    

2021 I might agree, but I think stretching it out to 2022 might be a little too long.

I am sure this has been answered many times, but I have looked back and can't find it right now and I am in hurry. Can I bring a 12 pack of soda on board with me? Thanks in advance for your polite replies.

I wish Princess would improve their desserts!  Not a real Carnival fan but their desserts put Princess desserts to shame.

It's by invitation.  Your name(s) are on the invitation and you present it at the door of the wine tasting day.

I realize that was just noting it was an invitation and not a phone call as someone had mention.

I was on the Crown in March and we got a notice in our cabin with the day and time. No phone call.

If it is anything like the last three cruises I have been on, you don't exactly have to hurry to book the Sanctuary. It was never full on any particular day. On about 6 different occasions I walked right up and was able to book the same day for morning or afternoon. I was on a Caribbean, Transatlantic, and another Caribbean cruise. 

Just returned EZ Air from Barcelona on May 18th. Had an American flight at 9:35 am and had absolutely NO problem. In fact, we sat waiting to board the flight for over 1 1/2 hours after checking our luggage and getting to the gate. Relax and book it!

No, the TV system was NOT upgraded. Same old, same old.
