But quite honestly they have done little with it because we still got the forms on the ship asking for our departing flights. So I don't know if it's now required or a nice to have but it's just another function that seems to have (inaccurately) moved from the website to the app. I understand the frustration everyone has with this app. I booked directly with Delta because it was cheaper than EZAir.

Rare jwattle Posted July 7, 2021 #1252 Share Posted July 7, 2021 They have only entered the airports up to the "C"'s. I figured that out after scrolling through. 😁 Might take them a hot minute...or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It scans it but then it says- we are unable to write your details to the OCEAN network…..ugh! Ours never did scan but it went on to allow me to manually input the info. No pic but it has a green check mark. Other folks have said it auto populated from their information in the personalizer but that didn't happen for us.

Everything else that I've reported over the past month + has been fixed but this is a new problem. Here's the email that I just sent to the Ocean help folks: "Hello again. I noticed that you have added a new “Travel Information” option under Personal Information & Documents. This is for our August 8, 2021 sailing that has a booking number of XXXXXX. The data in there was incorrect. We purchased our air through Princess but what was sent to the app was very old information, so the app doesn’t seem to pick up schedule changes. I tried and failed to just accept the bad data as it wasn’t that far off timewise but we still showed as red for this step. So I figured I would simply delete the bad information and start over. Oddly it showed us as green for this step after I deleted the old data. Then I tried to manually load our flights. First thing is that the airlines in the dropdown are not in alphabetical order but I was able to pull up United Airlines by typing it in. Then I tried to enter airports but it doesn’t seem to have Phoenix (PHX) or San Francisco (SFO) in the selections. Lots of airports in other countries that I’ve never heard of though. In any event I stopped trying and figured I had best write back to you. I indicated it below but I am trying to do this on a fully updated iPhone11."

caribill Posted July 7, 2021 #1259 Share Posted July 7, 2021 3 hours ago, AF-1 said: Is having your Princess EZ in the app important? If you have a flight delay or miss the ship; don't you have to call Princess' 800# to let them know? Having your flight info, whether independently purchased or with EZAir, lets Princess know if you have not shown up whether or not your flight is delayed and they can make a decision about you (and others) making the cruise. Of course if you used EZAir, the system should know that info automatically. But....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will we be required to add our flight info to our app? So far I don't see a place for that in my app. All flight info is in my personalizer. Now I have to involve my app in that? GRRRR!

Just received an email from Princess with Ocean Ready instructions: 1) no booking ID, ship, date or days until sailing. 2) the contact number for assistance is not a US number 3) it knows I’m Elite but has 1 day and (blank) cruises sailed. Princess, this doesn’t help. Again I say, if I was a new guest I’d be wondering what I’d gotten myself into. I just cannot express how embarrassed I am to be a customer of this company in 2021. I have never in my life seen such display of ineptness over and over and over again. I have written to several top executives and one sent me a nice short email earlier today and wants to talk - perhaps tomorrow.

They have no options for departing or arriving airports for me, and the airlines not being in alphabetic order is crazy. Like you, I just typed ours in. But it didn’t matter anyway. Unless you can complete all the information (and missing the airport codes, you can’t), there is no way to save the information. OMG - it just doesn't stop with them, does it?

Apple App Store shows latest version is 3.1.2 released two weeks ago. If there was an app update, Princess might have withdrawn the update so if your phone didn't automatically update the app while it was available, it won't get it for now.
