Yes…at anytime it’s open. There have been reports that the pasta options at Alfredo’s have been removed from some menus.

Based on the Princess dining options, Sky’s casual dining options are Alfredo’s, Ocean Terrace Seafood and Vines…$14.99 without a package. https://www.princess.com/content/dam/princess/corporate/pdfs/restaurants-dining-venues-on-board.pdf.coredownload.inline.pdf

I’ve read posts from those who ordered them for delivery but they didn’t arrive before boarding which slowed down boarding. They got a cruise card at check-in to allow them to board & then had to wait in a long line at Guest Services to have them make their Medallion…not a good way to start a cruise.

Thanks…we’ll be boarding Crown in Brisbane next March which will be our first time there…hope you had a good flight & enjoyed the area. 🙂

Interesting thoughts…Checking my ships found these situations to pre-purchase SD: Crown: Currently sailing on the West Coast & our cruise next year in Australia has AUD OBCs & advance booking of SD of $35/$39 USD Royal: Currently sailing in the South Pacific & our cruise next year from NZ to LA has USD OBCs & advance booking of SD is $55/$63 USD which are actually AUD prices. Thus for me the Crown fits your thoughts about prices being based upon ships current locations however that does not apply to Royal. So there appears to be no reason other than it’s another app glitch that needs to be fixed.

I’ve used these USB-C to USB-A adapters I bought on Amazon.

Here are photos from our Sky Princess sideways interior cabin.

Thanks…no barcode on my app & also have never been requested to show a boarding pass since Medallions began. Having been 2 years since our most recent PCL cruise I’m checking for any changes.

I’ve read that Lavazza is now the coffee used…is that only in the IC or also in Royal-class ships buffet’s filtered coffee machines made from ground coffee? On Celebrity saw them using ground Lavazza coffee in their buffet coffee machines…hopefully the same on Princess’ Royal-class ships. ☕️🤞

Mine took 2:20 to get to my cruise…20+ seconds to get past the logo screen & another 2 minutes to open my cruise’s info…mine is considerably slower after the update. We’re 11 days from boarding but don’t see an OceanReady boarding pass…does anyone have any experiences with these? Are these only for those in the Blue lane who need to pickup Medallions at the port which doesn’t apply to us having received them at home to be in the Green lane.

If you want to sample local wines, Maui Winery is located in Upcountry’s Ulapalakua area. Across the street is a quaint old market & grill if hungry…Ulapalakua Ranch Store. 😋 https://ulupalakuaranch.com/ranch-store-grill/ The earlier you can get to Haleakala the better because the summit area can get socked in with clouds around midday.

Great…if you only walk to the nearby Maui Mall would highly recommend the long time family owned Tasaka Guri Guri…a frozen tasty treat (cash only) described as a combination between sherbert and soft ice cream which comes in either strawberry or pineapple or get both like we do…ono-licious! 😋 https://onolicioushawaii.com/tasaka-guri-guri/

It does replace Lahaina which I expect the situation to be for at least 5 years. There is no good places to visit within walking distance & only a few malls. There is a public bus system however think renting a car from the airport or Enterprise close to the port is a better option. If wanting to go to nice beaches would recommend going to Wailea (30 minutes) and if you have a rental car you can drive to the south end of the road to see the most recent flow from the late 1700s. Or to drive Upcountry to visit that area halfway up Haleakala (we go to the Maui Winery when guests visit us) or to continue to the top to see the cinder cones & where I’ve read the lunar astronauts trained there because it resembles the surface of the moon.

Happy that the workaround was successful for you…now Princess needs to fix the glitch which prevents simply removing any item in the cart.

You cannot use any device to heat water in the cabin…maybe hot water from the buffet drink stations or using the breakfast door hanger for hot water which might not be hot enough for your press.

Wishing you the best of luck…you’re certainly doing your homework. 😊 Thanks…to me your destination is much mo bettah than mine. ☺️ If you dock in Kahului Maui hope you have a great day. 😎

The 20% average maximum for Hawaii is between 0627 & 0757 HST (0927 & 1057 PDT) https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/hawaii?iso=20240408 Maybe you could locate a map by searching online for approximately midway between LA & HI to find an estimated amount of obscuration…even a guess-timate is better than nothing. 😉 If you hope to see the small partial eclipse then get eye protection glasses from someplace such as Amazon. I’m on Discovery’s TSE at sea off of Mazatlan & Princess sent an email confirming that we’ll receive glasses on the ship.

After updating my iPad last night the blue display with the Princess logo took longer to go to my next cruise which took 90 seconds of spinning wheel before opening my cruise’s info. This not only happened on the first usage after the bug squashing update but for subsequent openings of the Princess app.

Agree…Such inconsistency fleetwide on having wine packages available is likely the reason they were unsuccessful when offered before the pandemic. They never promoted it on their website & frequently had little to no promotion onboard…their management’s policies were not how to have a successful wine package. Celebrity promotes wine packages with different number of bottle options which we purchased even from our homeport because the difference between carrying on wine to pay corkage & the package it was worthwhile for us to buy the package with a discount by purchasing in advance & as I recall could use OBC to pay for it. And when flying to a port that convenience is even more of a factor for us.

I’ve also had that experience but having not used EZair since 2017 I don’t recall if it was jumbled or not.

Disappointing…such inconsistency of not knowing if it’s available or not is not good when making a decision whether to purchase wine onboard or to carryon wine which I will do instead of waiting for them to decide whether to offer it or not. It appears to me that your thoughts about when a wine package is offered would be true & a way for Princess to sell excess inventory however that uncertainty is not good for their passengers.

No charge

That might be required to delete an order like the procedure I found. I agree, there should be a way to remove cart items without placing the order & then canceling it…just another app IT glitch! 🙄

I stumbled upon a way to delete an order in the Princess app using my Apple mobile devices. Under “Order and customize Medallion” is “Order History”. Clicking on it brings up my order history & by pressing & holding my finger down on it my order is shown. At the bottom of the page is this option but not wanting to cancel mine I went no further. This worked to cancel an existing order but don’t know if it works for deleting cart items…good luck. 🤞
