tunisbridal Posted April 11 #1 Share Posted April 11 (edited) Hello fellow cruisers! I am new to princess. Not sure what I need to do with dining or pre cruise reservations. I also tried to download the medallion app but it does not come up in my apple app search. Any help is appreciated!

Rare CruzerDeb Posted April 11 #2 Share Posted April 11 Welcome! The Medallion app has been replaced by the newer Princess app - try that. Seems that, along with the new app, you can now only make dinner reservations once your cruise is paid in full. At least that’s how it was for me last time I checked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to App search: search Princess Cruises 2nd one down. Click on Get. Also, from cruise personalizer on the Princess website. Check in, you’ll see a Google or Apple link to download the App. Welcome to the Princess Forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A suggestion is to enjoy reading previous threads on here to learn everything you could want to know about cruising on Princess. As a timesaver tip, only read the first 3 posts under each thread for the answers, All the following posts on a thread is a waste of time 🙂 Cheers 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we should ignore it since it’s “a waste of time”. Perhaps you should rethink your advice. lol 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At these levels you can reserve dining as soon as you book. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandancer Posted April 11 #13 Share Posted April 11 No, it’s only our 3rd Princess cruise. I can’t think why but maybe it’s a UK thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m told the policy changed in February. I made my reservations before final payment. But under the old rules in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JordanF Posted April 12 #17 Share Posted April 12 Same thing happened to me. We booked a 2026 cruise in January 2024. The app let me make MDR reservations for every night. Now, when I look, it will not allow me to make dining reservations until I pay in full as I am not Platinum, Elite or in a full suite or Club Class mini suite. However, my reservations that I made in January are still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, my reservations that I made in January are still there. This is because they changed the rule in February. And they allowed those of us who made reservations prior to the change to keep them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your account, you may be a higher level than you think as cruises with P&O up to 2017 contributed to Princess loyalty. This is how we got to Elite and we booked for the restaurant last year for our Sept 2024 cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandancer Posted April 12 #20 Share Posted April 12 I thought of that Phil but our first P&O cruise was in 2018. Before that we cruised only with US cruise lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to do it for a US-based cruise and I have never been on a Princess cruise ever. However, I can't do it now. Therefore, I think @BamaVol is correct. There was this brief window after the new app was released where it would let you but that window appears to be closed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
