I have been on the Bliss solo and it was a nice ship. Alaska is a great destination too. Enjoy. I have just booked myself a 4 day trip to the Bahamas, leaving Aug 19th on MSC.

April 5th regal princess is my next solo cruise. The hype is real.

2 day hype! Day after tomorrow

Yes, but using ocean now it would not count as room service so no $5 fee

If you do the order as an OceanNow request, you just need to pay the one-time fee, though if it is a drink and you do not have the package, you do pay for the drink. If you order room service specifically, then it is the $5 charge and the extra for any drink like beer, wine, soda, etc. OceanNow will deliver to you wherever you are on the ship, but room service is just for your room. It is a bit odd to have the room service charge if the same order can be done with OceanNow

The delivery charge is a room service charge. You can use the app and not do it as room service and it will not add that $5 fee

True, either way, it is no big deal. Thanks. I am really looking forward to my first Princess cruise and my first time in Alaska.

How long is temporary? I am hoping they get it back up by the 15th.

24 days till I am boarding a ship.

Well, excuse me, almost 1/3rd happy now?

Most of the cost of Plus is covering the gratuities. So it depends on if you like the other stuff. Would you want to drink soda or any of the juices? Wifi? Premium desserts?

65 days to go.

I am doing Crown Princess Aug 15-25th, First time in Alaska, the first time flying out of the country too.

I would assume at least one or two should havethe upscale items. Maybe either the bar by the MDRs or the Alist bar (the one by the steakhouse.)
