Princess Fi

Enjoying so far and appreciate the time taking to offer your review and photos. Have sailed for over 10 years on Celebrity and we did Alaska last September for the first time on our first Princess cruise. Today just booked Konsingdsm to Alaska for May 2024. Find important to experience more cruise lines now!

We have travelled as a party of 10 all in Concierge. I reached out to celebritydining@celebrity.com to make arrangements. At the time they said we may have to split tables but accommodated each night at table for 10. They helped book first night in Tuscan also.

I suspect the answer is discounts cannot be combined. We have the premium drink package which allows 20% off bottles of wine and I am Elite which also allows 20% of bottles of wine. Is only one 20% discount allowed? TIA

We are on the March 25 sailing. Sorry to miss you.

We were on Millennium May 2022 for Pacific Coastal. We were extremely disappointed with premium wine selection and addressed second day. They listened and addressed with bottles of wine for dinner for our group of 10. Didn’t help for wine at bars but clearly there were supply chain issues. We had a chuckle when Kirkland wine appeared at our table night of Astoria. Clearly someone made a trip to Costco. We are sailing Millennium March this year out of San Juan and hope all that will be better. Will make a stop at Cellar Masters for some craft cocktails.

Appreciate your honest review. We are mainly Celebrity cruisers. Have done a couple NCL and recently did Princess in September. Would like to try HAL but only with the upgraded drink package. The 15 limit for alcoholic and non alcoholic just doesn’t work for us. Princess has the 15 alcoholic limit and Celebrity has no limits.

We used it for a flight October 28. 2 people in front of us. Will used it again in March as saved us a lot of time.

If you have a large group and reservations cannot be done via planner use celebritydining@celebrity.com

Thanks. We will be in Vancouver day prior. Homesense is a 10 minute walk from our hotel. I can usually pick up two Riedel there for $20 Cdn. Will just pick up and take and leave with our son and fiancé after the cruise as we will spend 3 days with them prior to flying back to Toronto.

Thanks for the details. I will probably take my own reidel as particular with this. I used to moving amongst bars on Celebrity where you can take your glass. I’m sure Vines will be visited but want the option to be mobile with a “good glass”.

First time Princess cruise September 17 out of Vancouver. We have Premier package as I am a wine drinker. We have sailed Celebrity many times and usually have Premium drink package. Question on wine glasses on Princess as all glassware on Celebrity is Riedel. When having better wine the glassware is a huge difference. What glassware does Princess use? Is it different in Vines?

This is my first Princess cruise. 14 Celebrity cruises so far. We have prepaid Princess Premier package which includes 2 speciality dinners. I can only make reservations if pay by credit card on file. They told me I have to go to guest services to be reimbursed when onboard. Seems they aren’t managing this well. This is after so many miscommunications I have had with app issues. The app constantly would say that to make dining reservations the booking has to be paid in full. It had been paid in full months ago. I was told I could only make reservations 30 days prior to embarking, reinstall the app (which I did and did not correct this issue). I have been promised calls back that never happened. Finally managed to make dining reservations via web version. Gee I thought I had issues with Celebrity but at least I can email to get issues sorted and I can apply OBC to make specialty dining reservations. No one at Princess has the ability to make any reservations via back end. I hope onboard experience is better than my service on land so far!

Appreciate posting of menus! We have our first Princess cruise September. Have sailed Celebrity many times and alway have premium drink package as a wine drinker. Looks like I may upgrade to Premier but wonder about availability of advertised wines. We sailed Celebrity in May and availability of premium wines were a real issue.

Have used it to board Celebrity in May but have never sailed Holland America. No issues at all.

We were just on the May 3 Millennium and a group of 10. Send your dining requests to email celebritydining@celebrity.com. They can look after reservations for your party. When I first booked they stated due to COVID the party would be split up but tables next to each other but we had the table for 10 in Tuscan and table for 10 in MDR each night.
