I did not hear him say that for pre cruise, but my reply today said they will have agents at the pier to assist in completing the forms. Personal information etc So, I would take from that, if you can get along without the app on-board the ship and they will have agents on the pier, then those who don't have a device or don't want to use the app should be fine. They fill out the forms, pick up their medallion, and start their cruise. If there is a requirement that the forms have to be filled out before the cruise, then i think there will be a change soon. Would Princess really turn someone away? Edited June 15, 2021 by billco 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Princess really turn someone away? This is what I saw on fb Princess agent posted. Also, a few on here said they got this response when they emailed Princess recently. they will have to have a link on Personalizer or send it to us in email to submit Risk form ahead of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's very stressful for me too. Furthermore, the question was not meant to be funny. I did think the response was funny though and mindless.

The people with nice teeth who make Princess videos tell you there will be happy, smiling people to help you complete at the terminal. The snarling, dark eye shade people are saying, "no Risk Agreement in Medallion app, no sail". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you arrive at terminal. Yet this is the "official" policy set forth by Princess which states in bold print that the documents must be signed "no later than 24 hours prior to sailing ." I have yet to see a slide that says otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During my corporate days we were taught that projects tend to take on their own life with their own outcomes. It is up to us managers to recognize when they have moved off course to the detriment of our customers and to pause, change or stop the project. It seems Princess has forgotten this business principle. Edited June 16, 2021 by skynight 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awhcruiser Posted June 16, 2021 #187 Share Posted June 16, 2021 My mom does not use apps on her phone. I simply logged her in on my app and checked the box for the risk acceptance policy. She has no clue what the medallion app is or how to use it. When I see her next, I will download it on her phone and show her the bare basics. Wouldn't it be nice if Princess had a form that could be checked at embarkation. Would be a shame for people to be turned away at embarkation. I would not be a happy camper. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenosha Cruiser Posted June 16, 2021 #188 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I received a call back from Princess customer support about the E-mail I sent them saying I would not use their medallion class app for my cruise in Oct. on the Majestic Princess. I said I spend a lot of money cruising with Princess and if they don't allow me to use my computer to register, they should then have a backup plan to allow us non app-ers to check in and board at the cruise terminal. Well, this lady from customer support said I will not have any problems checking in at the cruise terminal to board. She said their will be two lines, one will be a GREEN line for everyone down loading and using the app and a BLUE line for those folks not using the app. She said the check in process would be just like we did before, but it could take a little more time. She thanked me for contacting them and said Princess appreciates my business. I felt much better after hearing from hear. I believe Princess will not deny good paying loyal customers from boarding their ships because we don't have cell phones or won't use their app. Cheers - Ken & Darlene 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Ft. Lauderdale (where i almost always sail from) you must drop luggage off in from of the terminal and there is no where outside the building to get luggage tags. If we must go inside the terminal and stand in line to get information downloaded, that is quite a dilema????? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope so because I can not print anything using my phone and do not intend to purchase a new phone compatible printer just to take a vacation. Not surprised Princess has not activity addressed and missed this issue. Maybe they will be sent with your medallion. Back to the old way when boarding passes and luggage tags were sent to your home. It is my understanding that in the past luggage handlers have a list, can look up your name/cabin and can attach tags at the pier before you enter the terminal.

You should be able to show your travel summary (listing your cabin number) to the Porter and they can make up a generic luggage tag to use for delivering your luggage to your cabin. I would be more interested in how you would sign the Risk Assessment Policy prior to arriving at the terminal to get into the "blue" line to be helped in finishing the check-in process. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san diego sue Posted June 16, 2021 #194 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Just got off the phone with Ocean Navigator help. Woman I spoke to was very helpful. First of all, all of us showing canceled cruises still on the appl. This weekend it is suppose to be cleaned up and taken off. My situation also has another problem. My android phone is a 7.0 and to work properly must have 8.0 or better. This morning the appl. started working where I could put in info (before couldn't) only on the canceled cruise still showing. My future cruises still didn't show up to work on putting in info. She said I should upgrade the phone because the appl. is created to work on the 8.0 and I will still have problems. I was intending to purchase a new phone so will do it today. Yesterday we looked and decided what phone to get. Also she said the appl. will work on a tablet. I made sure to mention that lots of us wish that we could just add all our info. on computer Princess personalizer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have two cancelled cruises that are showing up and didn't know when or how they would go away --- sounds like that problem might be solved soon per your post. On another note, I have an Android 11.0 and still have all kinds of problems logging into the system. Princess claims there are lots of problems with Androids and ensures me that they are working on it --- standard line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted June 16, 2021 #200 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I believe the issue with a cancelled cruise still showing up on my Medallion app (and, actually, not even a real booked cruise, just an option we had on a cruise while we made up our minds about dates) is the genesis of my many issues with the app. Even after that cruise disappeared, I was still unable to upload any documents or pics. It took getting through to someone in Customer Relations who knew who to call to get that fixed, but I still have issues. Kind of like life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
