Live from the Crown Princess–r/t LA-Hawai’i–March 2-17, 2023

@travelin.sistersI’m sorry you are missing the MDR lunch today. I also feel like vacation has started as soon as I’m seated in the MDR on embarkation day. -

@travelin.sistersYour pup is so beautiful! I find that the hardest part of traveling is leaving our fur baby at home. Since the ship arrived late and your embarkation is delayed I’m wondering if you will be able to have lunch in the MDR today? -
I love milkshakes so I’ll try one on the next cruise but while they are making it I’ll just ask them to not add all the extra stuff on top. My order will be simple and quick. Raspberry sauce in the bottom of the glass, milkshake and whipped cream on top. And if I want something really decadent I’ll get sprinkles on top of the whipped cream!

Live From the Royal Princess March 2, 2023 Mexican Riviera Cruise
KLM3164 replied to Woobstr112G's topic in Princess Cruises
We were on the Royal 4 weeks ago and they didn’t have the new menus at that time. The menus were the same ones we’ve had since the restart in 2021. They have the nightly fettuccine Alfredo and the French onion soup (my favorite with extra cheese). I think the new menus have a nightly lasagna instead of the fettuccine. -

The winds are crazy in CA today. Love the sun but not the fierce wind. -

Yes. -
Thank you for this information. We are doing a B2B in November and status will be Platinum on first leg and Elite on second leg. While I don’t care about the color of my medallion I was hoping I’d get the perks of laundry and mini-bar set up.

Wishing you a wonderful cruise! We did this same itinerary on the Royal from 1/31 to 2/10. It was a great trip and I hope you have a great trip too!!! Looking forward to reading your reports. -

If it were me I’d be looking at jewelry (specifically Brighton) or getting a few pieces of clothing in the gift shop. -

We were on the Royal earlier this month and I loved the extra dish in CC each night. The pasta and shrimp was so good! Who are your servers in CC? We connected with Samuel and Maria on embarkation day and requested their section for the 10 days we were on the ship. They were delightful and we really enjoyed getting to know them. -

@cr8tiv1I’m not familiar with Jams or Reyn’s. Do they have stores on Kauai? Next trip over is in May and I’ll check them out. I usually refuse the shell necklace at HH as I know it will just end up in the garbage can at the end of the trip. -

Lucky you! These are my 2 favorite stores when visiting Hawaii. Also love Blue Ginger for clothing. -
On the bottom of the order tag it states the cleaning process “uses a non-toxic sustainable wet solvent” so it’s not dry cleaning.

Looking forward to hearing back from you on purchasing Plus onboard. I like the idea of using OBC to pay for it and not having to pay the extra insurance on it if purchased pre-cruise. I do like the Plus package and not having a large bill at the end. Just finished a 10 day cruise and our final bill was $0. -

It’s not in Hilo. On the Big Island it’s in Kona. On Maui it’s in Lahaina and Kaanapali. On Kauai it’s in Lihue. On Oahu it’s in the Ala Moana shopping center in Honolulu. -

@arctickittyIf you do decide to take a ferry to Lanai be sure and visit the Lanai Cat Sanctuary. It’s an amazing place and you’ll love hanging out with 700 cats. lanaicatsanctuary.org -
Amazing Customer Service (Shareholder's OBC)
KLM3164 replied to Mike45LC's topic in Princess Cruises
When is you cruise? Are you inside 90 days of sailing? -
I don’t think you can request this. Best to do your own laundry. If I need to do laundry on a cruise I do it myself as they wash and dry things with very hot water and very high heat. I don’t want all our clothes to shrink so I find it best if I do it myself.

This is the reason we like Club Class….we don’t want to make a reservation and feel the pressure of having to be somewhere at a certain time. We enjoy going to the dining room when we feel like eating and not because we have to make a reservation time. To be honest I used to think that Club Class was a waste of money and we would do a set reservation time each night. But now that we’ve had it a couple times we do like it because we have flexibility in when we go to the dining room. We also like the service we receive. Our cruise earlier this month we wanted to be done in 1 hour to make a show. Our waiter made it happen without making the dinner feel rushed. It also seems like the waiters in CC have fewer tables to wait on compared to the regular MDR so service is a bit more relaxed and personal.

Also if you are in a full suite or have Elite status then your laundry is complimentary.

Princess doesn’t do laundry by the bag. It’s priced per piece and depends on what the item is. Here is the price list from our cruise on the Royal earlier this month.
-
We’ve got a B2B in November 2023 and I just checked our cruise. The cost for Club Class dining is $73 per person on the 7 day cruise and $63 per person on the 4 day cruise. Since we are sailing over Thanksgiving we like the flexibility that Club Class offers and not having to wait in line for the MDR. We expect the ship will be full. However if it was $110 per person for Club Class we might not be willing to shell out that much for this benefit.
