Then I'm sure you can imagine my disappointment, having never been to either location, and not likely to be able to return in the future.

My 17June stop at Kotor, has been replaced in itinerary by Bar. With Bar only about 30km from Kotor though, I'm hoping there will be a ship tour to Kotor.

Thanks for sharing HeinBloed. I'll be on the Sun in Piraeus on June 15th !

My Princess and Cunard membership numbers are the same, though loyalty not linked.

Phone Princess and ask.

We'll be in Santorini on 11th June, and are 1 of 5 ships there that day!, with a combined maximum passenger total of 15,182 (+crew on their breaks?). Yikes! 🥹 Hopefully with such a bottleneck, crew are banned from going ashore in that port.

".....a $5 USD room service fee will apply for each order placed by stateroom phone."

Yes. The display case for "Re-Loved" bags was shown & mentioned a video blog this past week.

I'm on the 8th June sailing, and also in the Guarantee situation. Nothing to be concerned about. I always opt for "Guarantee", and the timing of cabin allocation varies. Just yesterday I received the usual "Bid for an Upgrade" email, so Princess may well work through those incoming bids before they allocate Guarantee cabins. Enjoy your cruise !

I hope you don't mind me asking, however had you placed a Bid (& then paid for) for that upgrade, or was it free? (I'm trying to gauge whether Princess offer free upgrades at times, or whether all upgrades are now by Bid only) Thanks!

Thanks vj. I have also been curious about those same forward outside decks on 10-14, as the Oceanview cabins in that location appear to have windows onto those decks.

“…capacity of a little more than 1,000 people…” https://www.princess.com/en-au/news/news-releases/2023/02/princess-cruises-next-generation-ship-sun-princess-to-feature-the-brands-most-exciting-and-contemporary-spaces

Assuming those Promenade food locations are outdoors........late winter in the Mediterranean means it's dark (~6pm sunset), cold?, wet? = so perhaps little appetite for outdoor eating in those conditions.

Wow. During natural gas refueling......"The use of mobile phones, cameras.......will be prohibited whilst the ship will be docked......" How on earth are they going to enforce zero use of mobile phones across the entire ship for the hours whilst they are refueling??, let alone people coming & going along the pier adjacent to the ship.

I was told the same thing when I phoned Princess 3days ago.
