Do you know if any cruise lines provide a shuttle bus from La Baie?
-
Yes the Iona and Arvia and not just in the Caribbean. The only experience of the other 2 ships was the Arcadia in Norway during the winter and there was definitely no shorts 😂
-
But in my experience there are shorts after 6pm and it’s increasing year on year 🤷♂️

Just drop your luggage off, drive to the West Quay car park and walk back to the terminal. Upon return collect your car and meet who is with your luggage at the terminal. Approx £84 for a fortnight, you keep your keys and pay on leaving the car park.

I did this recently and saved a lot of £££’s and got a better cabin because of the unusually bigger balcony. Just called Princess and said I was considering cancelling due to a BIG price drop. Ended up paying £100 admin fee to ‘hold’ the new cabin, cancel the old one and then book the new one. I then paid the new price on the due date. Simples 😀
-
On the Arvia in the Caribbean you certainly could, again I’ve seen it 😬
-
No actually I’m not joking I saw it on the Arcadia last year and complained about it. To be fair he looked smart, just not in the right place.
-
You could wear smart shorts, open polo shirt with no socks and loafers and you’d be fine.
-
That was after a price increase 😡 Paid $229 for a recent trip then the special offer arrived and after the discount was taken off it now came to $299 😬

Applying Shareholder OBC to Onboard Booking?
devonuk replied to startedwithamouse's topic in Princess Cruises
Just to clarify then that if booking with a UK based cold house TA that I can still get my shareholder OBC from Princess? -
I’ve not noticed one on my last 2 visits, however, unless you have mobility issues you really don’t need one. In fact the walk around the coast and up the river past the University is a very pleasant walk to get to the centre. This then leaves a very easy stroll from the central/shopping area back to the ship.

We walked down and shuttled back 👍
-
Id recommend taking the train to Delft. A superb day out and the history in the cathedral where William of Orange etc are buried is worth the trip alone 👍
-
Do you ever get asked to remove the medallion at security so that the engraved details can actually be seen?
-
Only when playing football, sorry I meant soccer 😇

Us Brits can spot you guys from across the pond a mile off 😉

Sky Princess, Cielo or Estrella dining room, which is better?
devonuk replied to tabprincess's topic in Princess Cruises
Cielo all day long for us! We made a compliant about the service in the Soliel restaurant once and the Maitre D’hotel found us a table in the Cielo with a quip about how much better the service was in there 🤷♂️ We certainly could not fault it and we had a cracking sea view too 👏 -
I asked the above question because I repeatedly received error messages. However, I’ve found the answer from a friend who contacted me personally as below 👍

Help please. It states in the upgrade blurb that the price is per person based on 2 people. So if my wife and I travel with our 11 year old granddaughter is the upgrade cost the price x the first 2 or upgrade price x 3? Thanks.
-
Absolutely, which is why we only ever use the Opal or Aqua.
-
The Keel and Cow can have an ‘eating in a corridor’ feel in that it’s not an intimate environment and can be spoilt by noise from the atrium etc.
-
Hello again, read back through the posts 👆
-
CPS, ABP or the West Quay multi storey depending on the embarkation berth or whether inc in the package etc.
-
There’s no security at all… if you’re happy go with it 👍
-
So you’d be happy with your car being there, moved on a regular basis and several miles off the docks? If you’re happy that’s all the matters I guess 🤔
