Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted December 10, 2017 Author #101 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Can anyone say what is the status of the *****....what us working and what is not? Just curious if they are still going to try to roll out the CB as we are on her in August Sent from my SM-G935P using Forums mobile app There is no way that it will be rolled out on the CB in August. They have already pushed back the Royal from January to the fall of 2018. What is working with them, you can open your door and the bars and stores will know when you are in the area. That is it! I tried to use it in the store and they said it would be easier to swipe. They don't even use in the the OceanFront store! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

san diego sue Posted December 10, 2017 #104 Share Posted December 10, 2017 We have three Royal cruises booked starting Oct 26th 2018 and have already gotten email this week that ***** will not be happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on the 26 Nov cruise and my wife used it a time or two in one of the stores. You just lay the medallion on the small (about 3"x3" as I remember) sensor and the sensor turns from red to green and a receipt prints out from the register and that's it.

Astro Flyer Posted December 10, 2017 #106 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Seriously?! So most of the live from was so extremely positive and that’s what you walk away with?!! My reviews are always honest. Good and bad. I’ve done 21 cruises and bought another FCC. I’m sad as hell to leave tomorrow. I always appreciate your honest reviews...good & bad...which results in objective opinions. Even when something is disappointing, I enjoy each day & eagerly look forward to the next cruise instead of just posting on CC. ;) Thanks for taking time during your cruise to share your experiences.

San Diego Sue, are any of your 3 on the Royal in 2019? When I called Princess last week, the rep said they would know in a few months about our April 2019 cruise. So far, I haven’t received an email.

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted December 10, 2017 #109 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Thank you for sharing your experiences! I hope people continue to do “Live Froms” the next few weeks to note any improvements and/or changes with *****.

JF - retired RRT Posted December 10, 2017 #110 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I'm boarding on the 10th. My first Princess cruise, and after reading this review, my expectations are about equal to Carnival, which are none, but thanks for the heads up. Go with an open and friendly attitude and you'll have a great cruise. This glitch with the medallions is just growing pains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. We sincerely enjoyed our cruise and I so wish I could have stayed on for another week. With so many negative reviews lately, I was a tad worried about how I would feel on Princess this time around. There were some negatives but there were so MANY positives!

Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted December 10, 2017 Author #112 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Sorry that you're dealing with the nasty weather. We flew into Ft. Lauderdale today and way out we could see the huge waves. It's cool and cloudy here with occasional rain here today. I hope you get your money back on the day at the Sanctuary. You certainly should. They definitely lost the "rain or shine" argument when they put up the "closed" sign. Hope you have the greatest of cruises!!! Bon Voyage!!

Guest arowe6 Posted December 12, 2017 #119 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Wish I could have! Getting off this morning was tough. Hope you have the greatest cruise!! Make sure and tell Jason and Jovie hello from Carolyn!! Haven’t found Jovie but did see Jason last night. I told him “my friend Carolyn said to tell you hello.” He beamed from ear to ear and said “oh she was just on the ship. How do you know her?” I said “through friends” and he just kinda smiled but looked very confused hahaha. Currently sitting by the retreat pool 2 bloody Mary’s in... windy but sunny! Congrats on the promotion :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you are having a fantastic time, lots of sunshine and plenty of cocktails! How's the wind? If you find yourself down at the customer service desk on 5, I left a shirt in cabin C336, could you ask if anything was found in the cabin from the 12/3 sailing?!! It's a white linen shirt by J. Jill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest arowe6 Posted December 14, 2017 #125 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Thanks! How is your cruise going?!! I swung by and asked. They said they didn’t have anything. I asked that they take my email address in case something showed up so they did. She also told me that if it got lost in the sheets that it would have eventually been thrown out because they take all the dirty sheets and throw them into a pile so there is no way to know what items came from what rooms... Cruise is good. Some minor annoyances, but nothing that being buzzed before noon can’t fix.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
