Is it still by invitation only?  How would you know otherwise?  What time can you arrive?

 

Thanks

We sail on Saturday out of FLL.  We are full suite, elite, and we are on a casino VIP cruise (not in anyway "bragging", just stating our current status for this cruise).  We have not heard from Princess about this lounge.  Someone said they thought it was only for suite passengers that are flying in on red eyes.  Not sure, but it's apparently not just being a suite customer that gets you an invitation.  🙂

Hi Happiest when cruising.  When we received our telephone call about the Suite Lounge we were told the hours were 08:30 to 14:30.  We can't answer your questions about driving/walking because we took an Uber to the lounge.  My impression is that if you are in a suite and are arriving on the day of the cruise you could Uber/Lyft/taxi directly from the airport to the lounge.  Before we cause problems for anyone, we would like to make a couple of things clear:  The Suite Lounge benefit is just being "rolled out", so there will probably be changes going forward.  Because Princess is doing a "soft start", admission to the Lounge was by "Invitation Only"  They did have a list of who had been invited.  I have no idea what they would do if people showed up uninvited.

Sorry for the delay in thanking you for the information. We just got home from our own 21 night cruise. 
 

It will be interesting to see how this works out in the future.

Or maybe the testing period is over.

Given that there are fewer than 60 full-suite guests on any sailing and they can offer a substantially better experience than the in-terminal one, I very much think this is a step in the right direction, especially with Sun having more suites and more of a ship-within-a-ship experience.  Having Princess shoreside employees to fix any last minute glitches rather than contract pier staff, not having any rent-a-cops yelling at your most valuable passengers when they’re queueing for security, opening early enough for guests coming in on the first wave of flights?   Perfection. 

Absolutely, I've never seen so many useless people waving and pointing as port everglades, give someone a high vis and they are off on a power trip

We are sailing on the 1st and will be in a vista suite.  The Princess building with the lounge is practically next door to our hotel (Holiday Inn) and we would love to get checked in/welcomed and get a ride to the terminal.  I guess I’ll just hope that I get invited, if this is still being tested.

Same here, sailing on the 1st and will be in a suite.  Hoping to receive an invitation to this lounge.  Fingers crossed for both of us!

How did it go?

 

Anyone recently used this lounge?

New thread on it posted, as well.

And I got 3 calls from that number this morning. I don't have voicemail on my cell - keeps 95% of the junk calls away.
It came up as "unknown" and a Google search led me to this post.
I am NOT a Suite guest, nor casino - merely a lowly Oceanview on my first cruise with Princess.
Thanks for the info.

We just received our invitation for our Regal Princess April 5th TA cruise. 

 

Did you receive it via email or phone call?

That’s fantastic. We will be at the lounge also. See you there.

Ummm... Have a wonderful trip.  But I won't be there. 

1) I never answered the phone, so I have no clue why I was called.
2) My cruise isn't until November 2025.  I just booked - so far, deposit only.
