  1. I purchased it when it was $50 per person per day & learned my lesson that it's so way over priced, I wouldn't do it again. It's designed for those people who think it's a wonderful deal until they realize their mistake & can't possibly use it to their advantage. Someone who only occasionally uses the internet has 2 or 3 coffees & has 3 drinks a day doesn't make it a deal by any means. That is unless you want to subsidize Princesses profit margin.
  2. During a Ruby cruise last Nov they provided a list on embarkation day to let people know the themed night at the buffet only. Nothing was scheduled for the DR other than formal nights. On the Enchanted in Dec/Jan they only mentioned it each day in the Patter.
  3. I know the feeling although we hit the boring point much sooner as around 20 to 30 days on any ship.
  4. It's just another sneaky way of getting people to increase the price per day for items they thought were included. Of course they could have changed the name of the package & made some of us feel a little better about the now included items.
  5. The "cleaning" is some sort of a process that has now replaced the old "dry cleaning" process which used chemicals. I still don't know what the process actually involves but it does work in items that can't be washed. They use it on the crews uniforms. Perhaps someone who has taken the tour of the laundry facilities can better explain it.
  6. They always give you a lanyard with all the medallions. We just throw them un the trash or refuse to take any at the counter. We've got clips which my husband made, and can be transferred to any top or jacket.
  7. I've been specifying cold wash, cool dry on all my laundry for a while now (different ships) and I can't complain except for the way somethings have been ironed. At least they're clean & can be reused.
  8. I would still shop around & see some reviews of the independent tour guides. You might be surprised. People tend to post unsatisfactory reviews if something went wrong real quick.
  9. The only thing we do is separate the "laundry" from the "cleaning" in different bags. Lately even the laundry has improved & they no longer seem to shrink or damage items in the dryer.
  10. The only time we book with Princess is if it's a complicated tour and if it's a considerable ways from the ship. Caribbean tours are usually close by without much driving involved. Europe is entirely different.
  11. We saw a few of those last Christmas. Some folks really get into the spirit, some don't.
  12. Wow, that's taking it to the extreme. We just usually get 2 rounds of doubles at a time to take to the cabin (or share) unless it's a mixed drink and then only one each.
  13. Oh, I very well know your feeling. I talk to people all day long from the morning coffee line, buffet, pool and even before the shows but at dinner we don't wish to chatter away about sometimes meaningless things. I like having a relaxed meal & get to the show lounge to get our seats. I often wonder why some people would choose a table for 2 & then almost force a conversation to nearby neighbors.
  14. There obviously many who think the way you do or the 2 top tables wouldn't be in such high demand. While it's difficult not to overhear the conversations of nearby tables in the crowded DR's, we find that just a quick hello & holding our conversations to a quiet whisper sends a signal that we prefer not to engage in lengthy discussions.
  15. It's just easier at busy times to do it that way. It happens to us all the time when we sail with a package.
  16. When were sailing with the same group during Trivia, sharing didn't see to be of any concern to any on the servers. Drinks were being shared with anyone without any concern.
  17. T Mobile is all we need in the Caribbean. Purchasing Wi-Fi on the ship becomes unnecessary as we can wait a day until we reach the next port.
  18. Seems reasonable at busy times so the line doesn't get out of hand making people wait 30 minutes for one slice.
  19. Isn't it wonderful. 🤪 Without having to study all the nuances before you cruise, be prepared for a surprise when you receive the final bill. I think they actually planned things that way.
  20. We've been there to many times and no longer get much out of it. I see that they've increased the port fees considerably. We only got refunded $33 per person in Jan.
  21. It sounds like you might be a little disappointed with Princess lately since it's left up to the individual to dress as they seem appropriate. Don't let that stop you from dressing as formally as you like to enjoy your cruise.
  22. Many times even if you tell them to charge 1 drink to each account, they won't. So by the time that person reached 15 drinks they'll be charging you for every order. This, in addition to mistakes can be very aggravating having to correct the account constantly.
  23. I don't eat pizza but how many slices can you get at a time from Slices?
  24. They seem to be laid out better to provide more storage space. At least it seemed that way.
