Have not received yet but will be interesting to see if they work. $1.17 each https://www.ebay.com/itm/323923771955 A member on CC used these last May on the Royal and liked them. I went with the band myself and had no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there is a free band offered or you can purchase specialty bands with Disney Characters on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
40yearcruiser Posted November 12, 2019 #79 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Could somebody who has a medallion measure the diameter of it so we will know in what size opening it will fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky TGO Posted November 14, 2019 #84 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Hi Happy2cruise, Princess gives you 2 of them when you stay in a suite. So I don’t know if you can purchase one. I would ask my cabin steward if he could get you one. Tony 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2cruise Posted November 14, 2019 #87 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Thanks all for your replies. Unfortunately we are not in a suite and I just checked Ebay and could not find any....what were they listed under? Would really like to get one for my husband....thanks again!

DrivesLikeMario Posted November 14, 2019 #88 Share Posted November 14, 2019 My DH just puts it loose in his pocket. Never had a problem with losing it either. I can't stand the way the lanyards make you look like tagged cattle. I go with the plastic wristband. Bought 4 iFit ones from Amazon but they didn't work quite as well as the $12 one onboard. And BTW, they do not offer any discounts on that stuff even for Elite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have them on Amazon: Fit Bit Clip I wonder if the metal in them causes a problem with the Medallion? They are super sensitive. My DH's cell phone deactivated his.

My problem so far is my clear plastic holder doesn't seem to close properly, even though the top "latch" is holding it closed. The bottom and sides are not shutting properly. I've tried making sure the bottom lip is down into the other half but still not closing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using something thicker? As the cruise wore on i did see that there was a little give and it didnt seem as tight..but they were still safe didnt feel like it would pop open.

Only using the blue background paper that came with the lanyard. I took everything out and it still doesn't click tight so must just be the clear holder. This is only a 3-day Inagural cruise so we will get by. next 2 cruises are on the Grand which is not medallion yet. Bet we will be bummed going back to plain ole cruise cards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet we will be bummed going back to plain ole cruise cards Oh not me...We are on the Grand in June 2020 and I am hoping for cards. To me the medallions were not as fabulous as promised. App kept crashing on ship, took longer to load than it did for me to get up and get the paper patter. Took folks several taps sometimes to get it to register when coming/going on ship. It was stated we could just "walk by"...so lots of folks didnt even have them out to tap the first go round... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Crown recently, I kept thinking I was at a meatcutter or mortician convention ... those cheap lanyards and plastic holders, a clear devolution from the original concept, should be regarded by Princess as a mortfying embarrassment For the record, I kept my medallion in my pocket Edited November 15, 2019 by pms4104 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
