Travel_Girl020195 Posted July 31, 2021 #1276 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Thanks to all of you. It sounds like you had a wonderful cruise. We board tomorrow and are one of the ones with no medallion app that works, so glad to be reassured of that not being a problem. It has been a joy following you day by day. Safe travels home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cr8tiv1 Posted July 31, 2021 #1277 Share Posted July 31, 2021 @HaveDogWillTravel and all of Majestic's CC passengers that took time out of your busy/relaxing day to keep us posted.

Rare Shelly97060 Posted July 31, 2021 #1278 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Thank you for creating this wonderful thread. It was great to sail along with you! One last question: was the room service menu expanded/ changed from what you had on previous cruises? Based on some of your posts it looked like it was but I wasn’t certain. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AF-1 Posted July 31, 2021 #1281 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Thanks for all who took part in this forum. The weather looked amazing, the ship and food looks great, and having a one on one with the head of Princess is priceless. All the best and safe travels home tomorrow. Cheers and remember to smile.

Maddies Mom 46 Posted July 31, 2021 #1282 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Have dog will travel. Jacqueline, it’s Marlise. It’s Saturday at noon. I’ve been trying to find you.

wondertwinsmom Posted July 31, 2021 #1285 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I was wondering if anyone went on any memorable excursions that they could recommend in either Skagway or Ketchikan? This will be both our first cruise and first trip to Alaska. We have something booked for Juneau, but not the other 2. We are in our early 50’s, in decent shape and very active and love wildlife. Wanted to do a glacier walk and sled dog experience, but the glacier landing is full for our trip (Sept 5 sailing), and the musher camp isn’t offering a ride, only playing with puppies. I was hoping someone did something they loved and could share! We want to experience all of Alaska we can in case we don’t get to come back.

barbpretz Posted July 31, 2021 #1287 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Thanks again to everyone who contributed to this tread - it has been amazing! One more question: Did anyone do the "Good Spirits at Sea"? I read the description, but still don't have a clear idea of what that actually is, so any details and opinions would be great (when convenient, of course). Thanks so much!

On my last cruise to Alaska, I rented a bike in Skagway and went along Dyea Road. I did not make it all the way, though, but it's a scenic trip. Sockeye Cycles also does some guided trips, but going on my own was less expensive: Alaska Bicycle Tours Rentals Sales & Service - Sockeye Cycle One of my favorite excursions ever was snorkeling in Ketchikan. I don't know why Princess doesn't offer it anymore. Here's the website for the company: Snorkel Alaska 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But truly PCL isn't that fancy on formal nights any more. About the only thing you'd get flagged wearing into the MDR is shorts, tanks, rubber flip flops, and T-shirts. A man wearing nice jeans and a collared shirt would be fine. Must be a long sleeve collared shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to disappoint you @kml246, but I was only along for the visual ride. Back to backs are not allowed yet...and I am staying close to home for the time being. Traveling along with all of these real passengers really made me feel like I was there too. I stopped updating signature. There were too many cruises....oh, to have that problem. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wondertwinsmom Posted July 31, 2021 #1294 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Thank you for all of these great suggestions! Keep them coming if anyone has others, I’m taking notes. I know the current passengers are all probably relaxing today, but if any of you check in later I would love to hear from someone on this sailing since I am sure things were most likely a bit different this time around. Did anyone mention previously whether or not the tour companies were set up at the ports for last minute bookings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDVM96 Posted July 31, 2021 #1295 Share Posted July 31, 2021 (edited) The Majestic at 21+ knots heading back 😁 . Is the ship late? What is the planned ETA? Edited July 31, 2021 by EDVM96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skayrobe Posted July 31, 2021 #1296 Share Posted July 31, 2021 I am not sure if anyone has posted about the medical services. I had an allergic reaction to my right eye and it got very swollen and itchy. Decided to go to medical on Deck 4. During our cruise because of Covid restictions you had to make an appointment then you were allowed to go down. The medical staff was great. I was not contagious it was just allergies. I was given eye drops which helped with the itching. Good experience. Ill pass the bill onto my insurance company. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDWalt Posted July 31, 2021 #1297 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Hope you had a wonderful time. I am a bit jealous. Question about the dining reservations on the app. If one is Club Class dining, do you still just show up when desired or do you need to make a reservation on the app for that as well? Thanks!

ChangeOrder Posted July 31, 2021 #1299 Share Posted July 31, 2021 For all my military folks that were asking, we had our Veteran M&G today at noon. It was published in the Patter. So, yes they still have them, and it may be on the last day. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
