It was a year ago.

I was able to book a Deluxe Balcony Cabin by calling Princess and asking for their help. Seems like that method is hit or miss according to other posts here.

Another vote for the bracelet! It really looks nice. Mine is gold because that was all they had at the time. I too might consider getting one in silver.

Sign up for a post cruise tour. They put your luggage under the bus and after the tour they drop you off at the airport.

I think you are also in the blue lane if you don't have all of your information on file. In my case my credit card. Its expiration date is before our next cruise so I can't enter that information until I get the new card. Hence we are in the blue lane. Medallion is ordered btw.

To the OP, please let us know how you made out and whether you were able to do your tour. I am in a similar situation. I want to take a Catamaran Snorkel tour in Grand Turk. Maximum age is 70. We will be 72 and 73 at the time of the tour. We are both is good shape and are experienced snorkelers. I too went though the booking process on Princess and it looked like I could book it despite our ages. I am very interested in hearing from others who might have done something similar and how it turned out for you.

Can anyone recommend a snorkel tour that uses a catamaran? I get sea sick on anything else unless its a short sail. The cruise excursions all have a age limit of 70 years old. We will be 72 and 73 at the time of cruise. We are experienced snorkelers and in fit condition. I don't know why there is this maximum age requirement but I understand that they are strict about it so are looking for alternatives.

In Amber Cove are the pools/lazy river salt or fresh water?

How long did your feet hurt? Were they okay the next day? I don't want to do something that will mess up my walking ability for the rest of the cruise.

For those that wait and have lunch off ship before boarding...how does that work with checking out of your hotel by 11:00 and having all your luggage with you?

We always had the queen bed setup up until our last cruise. We tried the twin setup and liked it. We each had our own "space". I get hot so use few covers whereas my husband likes to have all the covers on. Plus I am not bothering him with my tosses and turning (smile). We are going with the twin with the next cruise also.

Yes if it can fit in a airline type scanner at the port. Couldn't be a large suitcase.

Is the Lazy River free?

Princess certainly does have fresh flowers available for purchase! I bought a beautiful bouquet last year. You do have to go to Customer Service to order. Not available online in advance unless that has changed.

Thank you everyone. Now I have options. Thanks Sea Hag. Nice to talk to you again. We were on the Sky Princess last year together.
