It will work when you are on the ship. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare donswife Posted October 28, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 28, 2022 You can use the app to order wifi before the trip, and activities might start to show up a week or 2 before sailing. We could not see menu until on the ship. Enjoy the surprise 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingsoon Posted October 28, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Given the current trajectory, I expect it'll start working in ten or eleven years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncleboo Posted October 28, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted October 28, 2022 It is amazing some folks on this site are so nice and helpful and others have very rude comments toward others, how about some patience and tolerance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deepcman Posted October 28, 2022 #7 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Some people just have a higher tolerance for pain than others. This site isn't like calling Princess in that the answer won't change regardless how many times you ask the same question. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted October 28, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 28, 2022 There's *almost* nothing that is of any real value in the app until you are actually on the ship. As @donswifestated, you can pre-order your wifi package if you did not get it as part of your booking level. There may be other things that others can add, but I find that the app is almost useless even on the ship! It is very poorly written and (I imagine) contracted out to the lowest bidder. You may be disappointed if you pin your hopes and expectations on the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inhale. Exhale. When you are on the ship and log on to the medallion Wi-Fi, all will be revealed. (And to be honest, your stateroom TV will serve you better). If you are looking for the app to be a panacea for all of your pre-cruise questions and wonderment, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. I am not trying to rude. I am honestly trying to help you. But if you choose to look at this differently, there is nothing I can do about that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are platinum or elite, and you buy ahead, it is $5/day for single device and $10/day for 4 device plan. Otherwise $10 and $20. It costs more if you wait. If you have a lot of shipboard credit, you can buy the single plan now to get the lower price (can't use shipboard credit) and upgrade onboard and use OBC for that portion, still at the lower price. I did this last week. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Shelly97060 Posted October 29, 2022 #14 Share Posted October 29, 2022 You won’t be able to see the menus in the app until you are on the ship, and even then sometimes they won’t show up. I have found the menus work better on your stateroom TV. Pre-cruise you can use the app to make dining reservations but you won’t be able to see main dining room menus.

So I can see what the meals will be for tomorrow in the entertainment times at night and other activities Getting back on topic: The Medallion Class App (OceanReady/Travel Checklist) begins working as soon as you download it to your phone/working device. You are able to do most everything needed (to be completed) before boarding...i adding credit cards picking arrival/boarding times uploading passport information/vaccinations cards (if still needed) and a sundry of other forms. ordering wifi ordering accessibility equipment picking out celebratory days booking specialty restaurants The Medallion Class App (JourneyView/OceanNow/OceanCompass) . A few selections may work before boarding: OceanCompass - Explore Ship JourneyView - Selected Activities and Port Guides OceanNow - Dine My Way The rest of the Medallion Class App will be usable once on the ship: Crew Chat Buying FCDs Ordering food and drinks Setting up find your friends and chat My list is NOT inclusive. There are too many functions to mention. As in many of Princess' attempts, they do not clarify between "labels". (case in point: Mini-suites are not full suites). The Medallion Class App has multi-functions. For me, it was through trial and error to figure out how it all fit together in the scheme of Princess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packedandready Posted October 30, 2022 #16 Share Posted October 30, 2022 First time Princess cruiser here. Do we need to order our medallions or will they just show up a couple of weeks prior to cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billco Posted October 30, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 30, 2022 After removing and reinstalling I think the latest update 4.6.1 is an improvement that works pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want to deal with the Medallion Class App at all, be sure to bring hard copies of required documents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
