If you happen to go to guest services can you ask if printed patters will be available after they go paperless. I'm sailing on the Grand in Sept. and am absorbing all the information. I am not using the APP so am interested in how boarding went to check in at the pier. If an phone is required to view the dining room menu I suppose they will have some regular printed ones. Thanks again 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp boxes are for those who need to dispose of needles such as those who are diabetic for their insulin. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaLee Posted July 26, 2021 #479 Share Posted July 26, 2021 I saw it asked before but didn't see a response. Does anyone know if we'll still be able to walk up to the dining room and just ask to be seated at a large table? Thanks! Hope you're having a great trip!!

wmr Posted July 26, 2021 #480 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Have there been any changes to Club Class dining? Can CC diners show up at anytime without a reservation and get a table in the CC dining section? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No changes - you can just turn up and be seated immediately. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked a similar question, and the responses indicated that you could turn up without a reservation. The question about table size is moot - much will depend on coronavirus precautions at the time.

If you have to purchase, how much is it? You can absolutely switch use between devices with no problem 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pms4104 Posted July 26, 2021 #484 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Is Princess still selling/providing beverages, particularly water, in single-use plastic bottles? Or, have they moved on to cartons or cans, as they predicted 1-1/2 years ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farsight Posted July 26, 2021 #485 Share Posted July 26, 2021 @HaveDogWillTravel Really miss your posts! I would love to see some posts from you!

Your input has been quite valuable to me, and I'm sure many others! Regardless of your decision, I hope that you have a wonderful cruise! 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I look at that and just can't believe it is correct! This was part of the announcement last night during the high winds. They had to deviate much more than usual to find shelter for the pilot to be off boarded safely. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never asked although, we didn’t go to events that were completely booked. They probably saw our photos when we walked up for dinner along with our reservation, they seated us immediately. It wasn’t busy, though so we could have probably just walked up. BTW, they weren’t taking embarkation photos. I think they just wanted the passengers to move along! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again I do truly appreciate all of you who are being so kind and lovely to share your experiences with us as it is a great wealth of knowledge. We just returned from breakfast in the MDR and you just walk right up to be seated. They are even asking if you would like to share a table with others that you may not know. It was packed for breakfast and the food was outstanding! 7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like a princess Staple on the first night. I'm disappointed that there is no more prime rib on the first night. Also, the Market Place opens at 11:30? What about breakfast?

They are still selling the water bottle package ahead of time and they are in plastic bottles. The to go coffee lids are no longer plastic and I think you may have to request a straw … we just didn’t pay close attention and don’t usually get drinks that require a straw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Raider Posted July 26, 2021 #494 Share Posted July 26, 2021 A couple more observations … there are 2 USB cable outlet above the nightstand on one side of the bed. There seem to be enough outlets seeing that you don’t need one to charge your devices. We are in an aft facing deluxe balcony (OMG, it’s wonderful) but the room steward has made note that some people have complained about soot on the balcony. There is even a mat down by the door because the carpet was getting dirty with people bringing it back into the room with them. It’s clean under the mat right now. I think they want to keep it that way. also, there are signs by and inside the elevators asking people to mask up inside and not to fill with more than six people. Nobody is really adhering to those suggestions, though! 7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turk1 Posted July 26, 2021 #500 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Cruise Raider, You said they moved you from the Concerto to the Allegro DR. Are you in Traditional Dining? Did the MedallionClass app show you as Concerto and once you boarded they moved you to Allegro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
