My brother, dad and I are sailing on the Royal in October 2019. It is a medallion cruise, which is new to all three of us.
My dad (88) does not have a smart phone nor does he want one. How will this work for him?
Can we use one of our smart phones to get his medallion ready or will he just have to use the cruise card as always?
I appreciate any help on this.

I was on Ruby Princess with Medallion net. No need for a SmartPhone though it's a great convenience. Your Dad would be wise to give it a try. I'm sure he can learn to benefit from a SmartPhone. At age 82 I'm not much younger than he is and continuing to learn keeps my brain elastic and resists the temptation to just drift into a hazy and comfortable dementia. Tell him I suggest... recommend... and urge that he give a SmartPhone a chance for the simplest of purposes. Keep it to one function at a time, starting with taking phone calls, and in no time at all, he'll wonder how he ever got along without it.

It's perplexing that Princess's web developers don't make it easy to pay. That seems like simple business logic. After all, Princess isn't in business for their health. I would assume that they want the money. Make it easier for us to send it to you.

He'll love those same crosswords on a SmartPhone in his pocket. My wife didn't want a SmartPhone. She was afraid it would ring in an auditorium and embarrass her. I found an iPhone 6+ on ebay for $150 so she could try it. She didn't know that it could be kept perpetually on vibrate. She discovered that FreeCell works as well on a SmartPhone as on a computer, and that SmartPhone is always with her when she's bored, doesn't have the computer at hand, and is ready to fill her time with FreeCell. Now she's advanced beyond that start though she'll never be like a thumb typing teenager. Your Dad will love the portability and the freedom from being chained to a computer.
