Thanks for confirming. I was only looking because Princess UK invited some blogger/vloggers to a Sky Princess ship visit yesterday to promote features for families. They were also invited to film one of these Window Suites because they wanted them to become more well known and they are usually the last ones to sell! We usually go for Premium Suites which are exactly the same price it seems.

Has anyone noticed that Window Suites on Royal Class ships are now coming up under the Mini Suite option rather than the Suite option? The price is in the same range as a suite but have yet to work if you get the same perks. Rather bizarre.

Ha! On the Illusions Room, we have a multi-sensory, interactive and immersive Illusions Museum in London (called Twist) but that would need a ton of space and once you've been there once....but they have to do something special to make it more engaging than just a set of magic tricks.

Spotted the different suits for a deck of cards around the edge of the circle.

New teaser video released for what's behind the secret black door. Any guesses?

Hey, don't assume the pop-up has totally gone yet. There was some kind of "new" 3 course lunch in Sabatini's on Coral yesterday - their first sea day - but now waiting to hear what type of lunch! 😁

Yes, waiting to see if Coral follows suit. Their changes only kicked in a couple of day ago.

First come, first served once you are on the ship only. You need to head up the Sanctuary in person and book a specific cabana via the attendant.

Does anyone know if you can include a $12 Speciality Pizza as your pizza option in the fixed price meal at Alfredo's/Gigi's? It does say pizza/pasta at the top but the others are charged at $8.50 so wasn't sure if it covered all pizzas on the menu. I've personally not been on a cruise where these feature yet so would be interested to know if they are included.

I meant aft elevators - forgot the Sanctuary is now at the back on Sphere class!

We don't know how this will be managed but from the deck plans my guess is that, like the Concierge Lounge, suite guests will have a key card type access to the forward elevator entrance to the Signature Sun Deck so won't have to go through the Sanctuary route. Both sets of guests can access the pool that way.

There will still be servers or you can go up the bar and order in the traditional sense. If you decide to use the OceanNow service then there will be an activation fee for the first time you use it on that cruise. It is by no means mandatory. The other thing is that you can use it to get free delivery to your stateroom of food and drink after that initial fee - if you use the phone to order room service then that will be $5 for each delivery. We also found it quite useful if you find a quiet spot on the ship where the bar is closed at that time, for example. And have used it for delivery of snacks when we have a good seat at a venue and don't want to go wandering to the cafe or buffet.

Yes, all the Princess fleet have Starlink now. There's a thread for reporting latency, bandwidth etc

I believe it's too early for the 2024 schedule - the current Schedule page only goes up to end of this year. You can see that Sky is currently using either the Mayflower or Ocean terminal.

Others have confirmed that you can upgrade to Premier on board. It would probably save you a bit of money as they could be charging £20 a day sterling before the cruise when you would be charged $20 a day on board.

Confirmed that all the fleet now have Starlink up and running, with Coral Princess being rolled out during this current cruise

lol. yes Chef Rudi is very excited about it if you watch the full intro on instagram

First intriguing sneak peek of the stateroom fit out on Sun Princess via Chef Rudi's latest reel - plus some other shots.

Another reel posted by Chef Rudi who has been visiting the shipyard with the Princess corporate team. Some more shots:

We haven't found the equivalent of the Retreat Pool on Sun Princess as yet - the only area noted as adults only is the paid-for Sanctuary. The Sanctuary guests get to share the pool with Suite guests on the Signature Sun Deck and even then we're not sure if kids from suites will be able to use it and thus will it be adults only? So to be confirmed if there will be something else that will be adults only and complimentary.

As per this summary, the cover charge covers 1 x Appetizer, 1 x Pizza or pasta, 1 x Dessert

Princess' Head of Culinary Arts, Rudi Sodamin, has been visiting the shipyard and posted a reel on Instagram yesterday. Lots of in-progress galleys with cables but grabbed some shots for those that can't view it.
