Thanks so much

Now I'm excited

[akeasley]

I'm going on the Golden Princess and was wondering if I'll get the little book from them?? And do you get it on the ship

 

I attended a first time cruisers seminar a few cruises ago that was hosted by the captains circle host. The passports were on a table by the front door. Up until then, I'd never seen the actual passport but fortunately had been collecting the stickers from the beginning.

Princess' unique itineraries, the International Cafe, and Princess' user friendly website that lays out all of the available cabins in an easily readable format.

Loved that they delivered our luggage into our cabin instead of leaving it in the hallway

 

Twice as many hangers as we needed (you said small!!)

 

Popcorn with the MUTS.

 

Ice bucket in the fridge instead of melting on the counter.

 

Ability to bring a bottle of wine each in carry on.

For $39 you can board a ship while it is in port. For that $39 you get

 

- Onboard first; before Suite/Elite

- Guided tour of the ship (if you want)

- Lunch in MDR with wine included

- Boarding photo

- Can roam the ship for 3 - 4 hours

 

Any booking you make up to 90 days after your BVE you get the $39 back as a credit.

 

It's a nice way to see a ship and have lunch. I've done it a few times while dropping family off and doing it again in 2 weeks.

 

Did not know this. Great idea!

Sounds great

I'm going on my own so that might be something I'll do

Where do you book that

Not sure what you mean by "I'm going on my own."

 

If you mean you are doing the BVE on your own, that is fine. Just contact Princess to book the BVE if it is available for that cruise.

[Fish66]

Yes

I'm going on my own

So I might do that

Or I'll wait like everyone else

BVE is for people who are not going on the cruise. It is not a way to get on the ship early if you are taking the cruise, unless you are bringing non cruisers with you.

Excellent; have fun! I have always wanted to try the BVE just *because* ;)

Being able to stack onboard credits. Great dining room food. Luggage comes quickly on embarkation and immediate access to our room. Eating in the dining room on embarkation day and eating breakfast & lunch in the main dining room.

[Cruise Raider]

I like the:

 

Pub lunch...especially on shrimp day

The new order any cocktail at the platinum / elite lounge on the list every evening

The Bogo for $1 happy hours

The indoor pool area

MUTS

Most all entertainment options

Crown Grill

Service in the buffet area (great idea with the egg orders being brought to your table)

Blankets at the pool on chilly days

Christmas decorations and music on December cruises

[ne1travel]

Acknowledging that special occasion from cabin Stewart as you walk by. BD, Anniversary, etc

[dlbaqua]

I rally wish that they'd offer it in more ports.
