If you get to your cabin and the mini bar is not already there (as some have reported) just call the dine line (or is it room service?) and let them know that you want to swap. Then you'll need to check that the coffees have been added to your medallion, since there is no more physical card. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyoo Posted August 3, 2021 #352 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Hope everyone has great cruise. My Alaska cruise last year was cancelled. My first Alaska cruise was in the late 70's on the original Island Princess. That small ship was great for getting around. We will join the Majestic on October 23 fo a California Coast cruise. Stay safe everyone and enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted August 3, 2021 #354 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Alaskan cruises attract a lot of new cruisers, so maybe that's why everyone showed up at once for afternoon tea. Or else there wasn't anything else to do at that time. I hope that when I'm on the ship in three weeks, they'll have an order card for the formal canapes. Once of the problems we've had in the past is that they did not respect our time request, though. We would get back to our cabin and find the canapes waiting for us. If the plate felt room temperature, we would have no idea how long they'd been sitting there. I'm a little bit surprised that people haven't received their minibars yet.

rawtravel Posted August 3, 2021 #356 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Regal and Royal had Prego Pizzeria which has been replaced by Noodle Bar on Majestic. Is there anyplace on ship where you can get walk up and get pizza by the slice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pkt1976 Posted August 3, 2021 Author #359 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Good morning from the inside passage leading to Juneau. We will be about 45 mins late into Juneau due to the delay with provisions in Seattle. I had a lot of fun last night. I played the yes/no game and won 🙌🏻, saw Carlos Oscars comedy show and watched the singers and dancers perform Sweet Soul Music. The entertainment and enrichment on this cruise has been great. There are no dance classes or parties due to Covid restrictions 😞which is one of my favorite parts of cruising. They do have a Dj in the evening and has had live instrumental music in the piazza and there have been some couples dancing there. They are making announcements on the pa and you can listen on the bridge cam channel on the tv. They will do the Dane throughout the day In Glacier Bay. 11 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jeter02 Posted August 3, 2021 #364 Share Posted August 3, 2021 7 hours ago, uCruiser said: How is the nightlife onboard? Any music, bands, dancing, karaoke etc...? For the most part all the activities pretty much remain the same pre pandemic. The only difference is you just won't see karaoke or dance classes. But they have live music throughout the ship and crown grill on the Piazza and they are some couples dancing in the fiat so in the music is being played. As we are a reduced capacity sailing the lovely part is it never feels crowded on board even though they are trying to push for using the app to book reservations no one has been checking any and princess live in a theater was packed last night so no social distancing really being enforced but everyone is having a beautiful time on board. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you most definitely can exchange your mini bar out before the mini bar itself has actually been delivered. My routine is always been as soon as I get to my cabin when I get on board I call the room service department and I explained to them that I always like my mini bar switched out for all water bottles and they usually do it with no problem. The reason for all of our Mia mini bar setups where they were expecting loading of the provisions on embarkation day and something went cuckoo with it and I think when we called to ask them to trade out our minibar for whether it's coffee cards or soda or water there's a misunderstanding in the communications you could just go to guest services and they will kindly assist and help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UT-Volsfan Posted August 3, 2021 #368 Share Posted August 3, 2021 The old system for seeing activities and information online us still available. Many of the bars have a QR code to scan for their menu that takes you to this. After connecting to ship internet, go to https://majestic.princess.com/homepage After it loads, click on More in the bottom right, then Locations, Hours and More. You will get a list of all of the bars and restaurants. Click on the name you are interested in, and when the bar or restaurant menu loads, click on View Menu to see their menu. Great way to see different wines/drinks offered at locations aboard. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay S Posted August 3, 2021 #369 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I am LOVING the pictures on this thread! Some tips: for just a snack at Alfredo's, get the minestrone soup. If the line for afternoon tea is long, wait until they seat everyone and then walk in. They will find you a place. It used to be that the tea items like the sandwich stuff and scones, etc., would show up on the buffet after tea was over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgiane Posted August 3, 2021 #370 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I have another question I love to swim and usually use the pool every day - it the pool in the Hollywood area heated since it's Alaska and has anyone been using it?

CSloan Posted August 3, 2021 #372 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Did anyone try to drop of luggage at the ship a couple of hours before embarkation time? Our flight gets in around 8am, so we're thinking about dropping off our luggage at the ship, then exploring before checking in. We've done that before in other ports...
