Rare Waynetor Posted January 15, 2018 #55 Share Posted January 15, 2018 We are also on board- did last week and doing 14 more days. We arrived last week at 11:30 and boarding was well under way for all passengers. Today there were 666 passengers in transit. As usual some passengers kept ignoring the 'its time to leave' messages thus holding up all 'in-transit' passengers. With so many 'in transit' we were all sent to the theatre and immigration was done there - much better than having so many people going into the terminal. We had to change cabins this morning. We left everything in the cabin ready to move and once we were done with the immigration we went to the new cabin and everything had been moved. Just like last week the safe in the cabin had been left locked by the departing passengers. Tonight's entertainer was Robbie Printz - he was Princess 2016 Entertainer of the Year - great show and he will be doing another show later this week.

Island wannabe Posted January 15, 2018 #59 Share Posted January 15, 2018 A particular thank you for posting the menus and patters as we are doing this same itinerary on Feb 25. However I see you are going to Ocho Rios but we are going to Falmouth. Wonder why the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clampram Posted January 15, 2018 #61 Share Posted January 15, 2018 We are also on this cruise and so far enjoying every minute. Much to my surprise we were sent to the Medallion area for embarkation and we have the ocean medallion. So far it has worked quite well and everyone knows who we are when we get close to them. Went to Alfredo's last nite and they greeted us by name just by seeing our pix pop up for the Medallion! Super entertainment music in the piazza after boarding and the food in Alfredo's was terrific. Love our cabin (Lido deck) and really enjoyed watching Churchill before bed last nite - great movie about the days before the invasion. Our cabin steward is Ranjit and he is awesome.

sunsetbeachgal Posted January 15, 2018 #62 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Wow, they have the Winston Churchill movie on the stateroom TVs already?? Around here that movie (which by the way is excellent!) is still in the theaters! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clampram, we are in a mini-suite on the Lido deck next week for our first Princess Cruise (been on RCI, Carnival, and Holland America). We also are supposed to get the Medallion, so I am so happy to hear you love the cabin on Lido, and that the Medallion seems to be working good for you!

lor74 Posted January 15, 2018 Author #64 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Today started without any chocolate glazed donuts...the horror [emoji33]. Oh well, I guess it is a sign to go exercise instead. Ro got me a coffee, and I went up and ran a mile/7 laps. I am now sitting on a tender...Elite perk, just walk right on. It is currently cloudy. I am going to go for an ocean swim, eat at the BBQ, and then get mentality prepared for what I am led to believe is the Italian buffet tonight....how many calories can I burn before that meal....not enough!!!

accio_7 Posted January 15, 2018 #66 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Hey OP, My mother and her friend from Toronto will be joining you on the second leg of your B2B, so I am following your live report with great interest :) My family are seasoned cruisers, but, for her, this will be the first time to sail with Princess. I hope you have a great day at Princess Cays today! Thank you so much for posting the Princess Patters btw :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums The film is called Darkest Hour :) I saw it during TIFF 2017 in September, and Gary Oldman was absolutely fantastic! That's good to know that Regal is screening it onboard, I'll have to let my mom, who is sailing on the January 21st cruise, know :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare dides Posted January 15, 2018 #72 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) We are also on this cruise and so far enjoying every minute.

Went to Alfredo's last nite and they greeted us by name just by seeing our pix pop up for the Medallion! Positive feedback at last! I assume that means you have no problem opening your cabin door. Will be interested to know if you can use it elsewhere like in bars and shops and when disembarking the ship at ports. Or anywhere else!

Jimorel Posted January 15, 2018 #75 Share Posted January 15, 2018 This is fantastic reading! Thank you so much. We have only sailed once on RCI and are greatly anticipating our Feb. 25 Regal cruise. You are posting so much useful planning material here, again thank you! Just one question if you can answer sometime during this posting, how much is gelato?
