  1. Up a massive 2% in the UK today, so not even a bounce ! Up 7.36% during hours + 1.35% after hours. No idea how much of that 8.71% goes back tomorrow
  2. I've noticed that for 2 weeks in a row Virgin Atlantic has canceled the flight that I've booked for 8/30/22 (1830 nonstop SFO -> LHR). These reductions are until September 11th & from 4 cities: San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas, and one Florida airport. The flight is within 42 days so I can't just rebook online. In that I purchased the flight through Princess (aka EZAIR) what do I if / when my flight is canceled? Just looking for how to proceed bc my long time CVP retired.
  3. I had lotion but it was in a large refillable bottle. That little [3/4 oz] tube was omitted. My purse lotion bottle is also refillable so not an issue for me.
  4. I'm late to posting. My eating is worse BUT Anna brought a scale in and I weighed myself. I thought no change but my BMI has dropped almost to normal range. So I'm energized to keep going Jan, please keep posting even if it's dealing with stress Susan, enjoy those grandkids Belle, I don't cruise again until end of August Izena, did the excess water soak in?
  5. I have manually made flight changes after final payment up to 45 days before the flight but I HAVE MADE MANUAL CHANGES. It shows up as a credit on my booking and then it's refunded within a few days. FCC will be the accounting deposit 1st choice. EZAIR Dept has never passed the savings on to me.
  6. And that's why I go on Princess not HAL. You can keep the trivia, games, spa tryouts .... just keep the wide variety of music going. Jazz to blue grass to rock to soul to alternative to classical. Not a fan of big band or hip hop
  7. Sort of .... I have 2 cruises where I'm only taking Bart to the terminal but completed 4, have 4 pndg. 6 required flights. 1st time cruising from San Francisco
  8. I have had 2 issues with Princess EZAIR. (1) AA resolved (2) Return from MAI to SFO had me changing planes in Dallas but I only had 30 minutes to deplane / catch 2nd flight. Told Cruise Vacation Planner (CVP) that was unacceptable after landing in FLL. By the time I got to baggage claim she had resolved by putting me on a nonstop return. My suggestion: put flight issues on your CVP or TA. Isn't problem resolution why ppl use them?
  9. I booked one rather than using up my last FCD but I was reassured that if I put a FCD on it later than I'll still get the OBC attached to it
  10. Oh no!! Hope it resolved fast! I went down at 11pm and was the only one in the elite line. 1 person for that line, 6 for other line. My guy spent over 1/2 hr with 1 person who was billed for SD. Other line let me cut in front -- I waited too long for my refund & stmt. Never got the other stmt. Miss the kiosks
  11. Was still that way July 3, 2022
  12. Last time I chatted with PCL I was told the chat line could handle close in cruises. Mine was a month out so they put it on. Chatted again when it was denied because the stmt was a month old and was told it wasn't soon 'enough' for them to handle. So there's sort of a system in place. Just not published
  13. Unusual issue: First they denied my request because the brokerage stmt was too old. I sent it in June with May stmt but they didn't get to it until May. Resent with June statement but they only posted to 2 of the 3 cruises. The one they didn't post it to was the one they put me on when Sydney->Hong Kong March 7, 2023 was canceled. Strange because PCL's rebook option was the April 2024 Australia to Asia & I just accepted. Resubmitted
  14. I had one too!! Fingers crossed as I've taken care of multiple family members with covid and never gotten it, been on 4 restart cruises escaped it, but I admit I wear a surgical mask indoors unless I'm eating / drinking. I actually found that alert reassuring. Did the iHealth test in my room / negative. If I'm going to get it I'll get it
  15. Hope not. I'm there next April. I usually am over the stores (E425). Actually nothing goes that late on Princess. Deadly quiet at night.
  16. Thanks DCThunder. I just want to charge my phone when necessary
  17. Does anyone have a picture of the outlets on the ship? Can I just bring a charging cord or do I need a box too?
  18. Should only be the case if she signed anything at the medical center making her the guarantor @Megabear2hope your dear aunt recovers!!
  19. Thank you. I'll book 1515. Flying in 2 days early on Virgin Atlantic instead of British Air this time. Just figured out that Virgin Atlantic goes to T3.
  20. Hi @John Bull! Sorry to tag you so much but mass transit across the pond has become as confusing as here. I am now trying to get from LHR (no idea which terminal) -> Southampton after landing at hopefully 12:30. Could I make a 1415 NatXpress bus? What's this ePassport Gates i keep hearing about?? I don't have Clear because I use Mobile Passport at SFO and Whyline elsewhere Bus options: 1415 or 1530
  21. I would say almost 5% wore masks 6/23-7/3/22 rt Discovery Princess out of Seattle. Easy to get masks from steward & PSD.
  22. I felt quite comfortable in what I'd wear to a nice restaurant or services (and I wear khakis to services) Formal / dress to impress: pants, matching sweater, pearls Other dinners: dark jeans, long sleeve top (flannel once), pumps, no jewelry
  23. Guilty as well. I had a card with 7 punches left. I used to trade my minibar for water or wine depending on whether I was walking a lot off ship. Now I trade for coffee. Yes I was part of the group that manipulated the program for better tea and cocoa. Sorry
  24. On Discovery Princess 6/26 -7/3 Alaska it was 3460 out of 3660. With rooms set aside for quarantine that's basically 100%. 2 weeks in a row Did all shows masked but didn't mask at dinner, adult beverage at piazza music. As a result: just like rj59 (got an exposure notification on my phone that I had a positive contact that day) Me too!! I'm still negative. Wishing rj59 a rapid recovery
  25. Tony, someone on CC and FIRE stated that they submitted that card at PSD for something (think it was # of punches left). Provided you haven't bought Princess Plus or Princess Premier you might try that. If you purchased either of the enhanced fares then the card is not needed anyway @skynightyou mentioned being onboard for 30 days and booked as 2 cruises. Is that so that you get 2 shareholder obc? $250 + $250 non-refundable? Or is it that it cannot be booked as 1 voyage. (Wish I could but alas probably never)
