Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. A final is suppose to be emailed the next day. We did not receive one so I contacted Princess they replied that they would send one out by email. As others have suggested check your account frequently or even every day. We checked ours every day and do have a copy of most of the final day. Waiting for email from Princess to verify charges.
  2. On boarding the Regal in Galveston my wife was sent to the security table, they made her get rid of a small ziplock bag of banana chips and some peanuts she had these in a shirt pocket. Glad they didn't see on the luggage scan the other large bag. We probably would have gotten thrown in jail for smuggling.๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜
  3. Flew into IAH last Sunday to go to Galveston via Princess transfer. After a wait of over an hour they finally decided they had found a bus . there was a total of eight people in this group of passengers We finally get to a bus that is mostly full. People say they have been on board for over an hour. After setting for another half an hour we leave terminal. Now I will add we have used Princess shuttle before and never had any kind of a problem. People on board are talking about how disorganized things have been . We finally are on our way to Galveston about half way ther driver pulls bus over, not sure to exit or go straight hmmm. A while later 25 miles out of Galveston another stop, driver on phone later find out this bus should have another group on board. Now there is more talk about how unorganized things were at airport. Phone conversation they made a suggestion that driver turn around and come back to pick up other passengers. That was vetoed luckily, I'm afraid there could have been a mutiny on the bus. We eventually get to port and it's onboard the ship yay. Come to find out this poor driver who spoke very little english had never made this run before, problem not his fault but more than likely one of his worst day's. After talking to others on the ship I kept hearing the word disorganized at the airport. Talked to one couple who had a transfer booked said they finally took an Uber to Galveston. Yes I realize there are times when things happen, will I use Princess transfer again yes. All is well we are on board enjoying another cruise, abit rough due to wind๐Ÿ˜cruise on.
  4. Finally after many cruises we put a small magnetic placard of a hockey player on our door. Guess we will leave our sign home at the end of March.๐Ÿ˜ฆ
  5. Served on a bun sandwich style????๐Ÿ˜‰.
  6. Cruise from Galveston in March, will be flying into IAH . Will arrive 8:30 A M and taking a Princess shuttle to the ship. Hoping to be able to have time to purchase several bottles of wine. Has anyone done this in the past, looking for some guidance on this . Yes I am aware that you can purchase wine at the airport just want info about doing it before boarding shuttle.
  7. Be sure to smile when looking up.๐Ÿ˜
  8. Furnish myself and wife with a balcony cabin for the cruise, we will be your butler and maid for the cruise. Text me we can work out details and references.โ˜บ๏ธ
  9. Does Princess offer l.uggage ez check at Southampton?
  10. Nuuk, nanortalik, and Qaqortoq, I realize these are small ports kind of off the beaten path so to speak. Looking for opinions from those who have done this cruise, yay or nay. This would be in August of 24 from Boston, have been to the other ports on this cruise.
  11. Is there a charge for the regular brewed coffee at the I C? Am aware that specialty items one needs a plus pkg for drinks and that food there is no charge.
  12. I realize that reasonable is different for everyone. Am looking for a hotel fairly close to port, where I will not have to leave an arm or leg. Possibly a shuttle service and restaurant .Have plenty of time to do my research, still looking for opinions if you have stayed at a hotel that matches these questions.
  13. Robes are available just ask cabin steward, they come in size small. A size that will not fit at least 75% of cruiser's.๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  14. Congrats Hank you win the prize for the best answer to original question. You covered all bases and gave a very helpful answer. I agree about doing one's own booking rather than Princess due to cost. In the past we have always checked Princess cost for hotels, always do our own tho. Seeing as how this would be our first time out of Boston just like to check out all possibilites. Thanks again now on to further research.
  15. Coral thank you for the answer to my original question, which some had a problem with. As my PCC is out of office on weekends this saved me from having to bother her on Monday.
