On-line check-in - RCCL vs. Princess

[NewSalt]

We have sailed twice with both RCCL and Princess, the last time with Princess 1.5 years ago and with Royal in February.

 

We have two cruises coming up this summer, one each with Royal and Princess. I did the on-line check-in for both last night. It took more than four times as long to accomplish it on Royal. Royal had some of our information pre-populated, Princess had almost all of it. I also found it much harder to find information on linking our reservations on Royal. A search turned up literally thousands of answers, none on the first three pages gave me the information I needed.

 

Had I done the two check-ins separately, it wouldn't have been as noticeable, but doing them together made me realize how easier it was on the Princess web site.

I agree. I think it is great that Princess stores your information for easier check-in, including emergency contact information and passport #'s. I imagine some are concerned over the privacy of that data being maintained on their system though.
