nini Posted July 24, 2020 #53 Share Posted July 24, 2020 We had no invite; We are Platinum, had a cancelled cruise this year, and have 4 planned for next year. We are 77 days out for NOT receiving refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Italy52 Posted July 24, 2020 #55 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Just left the video, couldn't stand it another minute. There were no concerns addressed (refunds, COVID, etc.) --- the video so far has been 27 minutes of staff talking about themselves. There were lots of people typing concerns on the side of the chat but none really seemed to be addressed except for a "canned response" here or there. So sad as this could have been a good opportunity to connect with past passengers. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latserrof Posted July 24, 2020 #56 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) So far, no answers from Jan, just total cheerleading nonsense -- I couldn't take it any more after 20 minutes. All smiley-face preaching to the choir as the ship sinks. Edited July 24, 2020 by latserrof 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintgeorge Posted July 24, 2020 #57 Share Posted July 24, 2020 We need answers not play silly games - we are not children but angry ELITE passengers who have been treated soooo bad - we need REFUNDS now !!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pris993 Posted July 24, 2020 #59 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I'm not out any money, last cruised on Grand in Feburary; booked now for Jan 2022. I tuned in just to see what is going on. Okay, just for fun. I lost interest quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted July 24, 2020 #60 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Well that is an hour I will never get back. There was one piece of useful information and that was in the very limited Q&A period. The Enchanted Princess will be delivered to Princess September 30th. Of course, no information about when it can actually be used for a cruise. Jan did make a special effort to put a smile on her face for the entire hour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreasier Posted July 24, 2020 #61 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I was one of the 200+ in the "Zoom Room". When I submitted my request to be part of the zoom meeting, I was asked to submit 3 questions. All of mine were COVID or restart related. I'm very disappointed in this cheerleading session. Almost no information. Those of us in the Zoom Room had our own chat - many were not happy. It was a total waste of time to me and made me less inclined to sail Princess again rather than more inclined. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ombud Posted July 24, 2020 #63 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Near the end they asked a 'would you rather ...' which seemed to be a fishing expedition about preferred ports / activities Completely avoid safety & refund questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalLuvsCrusingToo Posted July 24, 2020 #64 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I came on here to find out what happened? I'm Elite too, and after getting the invite with Jan's smiling mug.... thought, Nope I can't handle that baloney. Looks like we didn't miss anything. Sorry for the zoom room, that would have been terrific had she actually answered questions. Again, glad I didn't tune in for the rah rah in the midst of a pandemic. Shame shame.

Anubi Posted July 24, 2020 #65 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Someone posted to the Discovery Princess FB page that Jan said that Discovery MAY be delayed. Does anyone have more information than that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I turned in "late" (9 minutes after it got started). I lasted 3 minutes and decided that this was not for me. Thanks for letting me know that I used my "other" time wisely.

Bgwest Posted July 24, 2020 #73 Share Posted July 24, 2020 ARE YOU READING THESE COMMENTS, PRINCESS/JAN?? Like everyone else, I just wasted an hour of my life. What a train wreck. Smiling faces and games without any meaningful responses to the scores of really important and thoughtful questions that were posted. Without a promise of some meat next month, I’ll just skip the whole damned charade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching it on the computer with the Youtube link showed the many comments that people were posting during the session. Believe it or not, some (a very few) said they enjoyed picking between A and B.

Astro Flyer Posted July 24, 2020 #75 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) Only 5 minutes of the hour on Q&A: repatriation of crew & updates on new ships. Two shore excursion personnel, a video producer, a game show & birthday greetings for a few passengers...no mention of the Diamond’s Captain Arma as advertised in their email invitation. Glad that I decided to decline their invitation to join their Zoom panel (elite, 4 canceled cruises this year, no future cruises booked) which was basically a couple of brief small images of people in boxes...more boxes than on the Hollywood Squares game show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxiU_Y_j-HY&app=desktop&persist_app=1 That “Dream with Us” video stated they’ll “return with all MedallionClass ships” which would mean either all ships will have it added or ships lacking it won’t be used. The stock photo they used with the caption “For over 55 years” shows the original Dawn Princess (previously Sitmar’s Fairwind) which joined their fleet in 1988...guess they didn’t have a photo of their first ship Princess Patricia from 1965 nor of the Love Boat Pacific Princess. They said the entire presentation would be available to view on their Princess YouTube channel for not much new information.
