I didn't look everywhere yet on the app, but dining didn't jump out at me. I suspect it's in there.. I just haven't gotten far enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I did that for drinks and that's what mine said. So I wonder if one has to wait until they're on the ship to book dining. I found it odd about drinks, but that must just be to order a drink and not a drink package. I was wondering if just the coffee package (old coffee card) was still available. It doesn't show on the web page. It's only available with a soda AND coffee package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that exchange is still available. I was really looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted June 3, 2021 #183 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Our first cruise is in October 2021 and our early dining choice is no longer shown on the Cruise Personalizer. Going to the app we’re ✅ for the first 3 of 5 sections with the Arrival & Departure Groups and Health Status being too early to complete. It’s also too soon to make our Dine My Way selections & get this when attempting to complete it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare azbirdmom Posted June 3, 2021 #185 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I just updated my MedallionClass app on my iPhone this morninng and the update seems to have brought new features including the ability to reserve dining. It wasn't there yesterday prior to the update and we did make our final payment on our August Alaska cruise on Tuesday. You can select dining from the place that's been there (towards the bottom) or select the dining icon at the very top of the screen, next to the itinerary icon. Very easy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runner2013 Posted June 3, 2021 #186 Share Posted June 3, 2021 We have our wedding next May on the Caribbean Princess and the dining option has also changed today to the app. Not like we don't already have enough to worry about. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelers36 Posted June 3, 2021 #187 Share Posted June 3, 2021 We had dining setup for a 4-top with our friends on same voyages. Now dining info is stripped from Cruise Personalizer and I do not have it yet on the Medallion app. Also, I have had for at least two weeks now that Compass is Unavailable and "all hands on tech" working on it. IDK if it is a systemic issue, or whether it is something they have to work through for all voyages and ours is almost 500 days away, so no hurry on their part. Who can Setup their Personal Info & Documents as part of the BLUE LANE registration? I have 1/4 (for default free Medallion order). I have added, deleted and re-added credit card and MedallionPay is not green. I did have all these functional and complete a while back when Princess sync'd the app and website and I had setup up common password. I am thinking I should be able to get back to 3/4 Blue Lane (I realize no arrival/departure groups as yet). IDK when we can re-establish the dining or if Princess has it hidden somewhere (Early TD 4-top with res cross-references). Going to call and ask. Should be interesting.

I was thinking because (a) the Personalizer is setup right after booking, and (b) because I had 1-3 setup in MedallionClass not that long ago, that all would be good. Guess I will just have to wait and monitor Princess IT pace of progress. Edited June 3, 2021 by Steelers36 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phabric Posted June 3, 2021 #191 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Before they changed to new Medallion App, if you had 2 or 3/4 passengers on the same booking you were able to fill in all the personal information for everyone. I have a cabin for my daughter, son in law and 2 yr granddaughter. Daughter and son in law will each be able to download the Medallion App on their phone and fill in their personal information. Where do they fill in the information for their daughter? Edited June 3, 2021 by phabric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do they fill in the information for their daughter? I would say parents create an account for her and setup the data. I should think the personal info can be setup in the Personalizer to the extent they have input screens now. Back to the app. I did see an add child option in MedallionClass. Can't find it now .. grrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My iPhone shows blue lane and only a check mark for Medallion even though the items within each item are green. This is for an August 8th cruise.

Rare azbirdmom Posted June 3, 2021 #195 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Here are a couple of slides from today's John Chernesky webinar. Should be self explanatory but it sounds like more should be working come June 7th. Interesting that after June 7th guests in any of the above categories should be able to access the dining feature.

kiwimum Posted June 3, 2021 #196 Share Posted June 3, 2021 According to the Webinar today, the dining section will be open for bookings on June 7. Elite, platinum, suites and Club class can book before final payment. You will also be able to reserve speciality dining thru the app. Should be interesting.

Just curious if anyone might have asked this question... We are platinum and sailing with DD and family in a separate cabin and they are not platinum. (Our reservations are linked.) I am wondering if I will be able to book them along with us when it is available? Also, both cabins were already booked to traditional before this all started. It seems like that is what the 2nd bullet is indicating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
