Our last cruise Value Trips opened up for our Feb 23 cruise on Dec 19, 2022.

I'd like to use our Skymiles on Delta to upgrade our seats. I don't know if this is even possible. I saw no option for it when booking EZ Air. Is there a phone number for EZ Air questions that I could call and speak to someone?

I'd try and change it if it were me.

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.

I think I know the answer to this but I thought I'd ask anyway. Does a guest have access to a microwave anywhere on the ship? Buffet perhaps? Sky Princess if that makes a difference. I know heating pads are prohibited so if there was access to a microwave I could bring one of those bags you throw in the microwave and heat up with me on the cruise for my aching back.

If you use EZ Air can you take advantage of your airlines skymile perks, say to upgrade to First Class? I am talking Delta. Does the option to use skymiles pop up when booking EZ Air?

Has anyone done the Segway tour of Old San Juan? We are interested in doing this. We will be 72 and 73 when we go but are active. I read that the balls of your feet may hurt because of leaning forward and your metatarsals are not accustomed to weight there. Also you are standing for 2 hours and is that a problem normally? Did you feel "safe" riding a Segway? Any input would be appreciated.

The coffee table is moveable. Just move it under the TV by the balcony doors to get it out of the way.

My husband and I have been to Princess Cays before. We are thinking we might like to just stay onboard this time. Do very many people stay onboard? For those that have done this about what percentage of the passengers (in your opinion) remain onboard? And if you have remained onboard what was your experience? Are there onboard activities going on? Things to do? How was it around the pools?

Its a personal preference to be sure. Our last cruise we decided to opt for the twin configuration. I too like my space. Prior to that we did the Queen. I never noticed a dip or "crack" in the middle. Either one works fine for us.

I don't think it works that way. You will either have to cancel and re-book or refare. In either case you would pay the current price for that cabin. Keep watching the prices though. If the fares drop you just might be able to snatch that new cabin. It happened to me. I saw the prince drop for my cruise. I had a deluxe balcony and I was able to refare and get a mini suite for only $151 more.
