My apologies, I was referring to the security picture for the Ocean Ready security picture. I didn’t know what the rules were for the app, as opposed to the security picture taken when embarking check in. I know in passport photos that you cannot have glasses on.

I knew you were asking about the app. I have not seen any “rules” published. My point is that there should be no difference between the rules for the photo that ship security takes and the rules for the app photo. Does anyone else have any information? In any case, if ship security doesn’t like the photo they’ll just take a new one.

I have the same “offline” problem. I am guessing it is on Princess end.

I do have a question, when I can connect. Can the security picture, not the image picture, be taken with my glasses on?

Thank you

I have never been asked to take my glasses off for a Princess security photo. 🤓

If this is available for Android, does this mean I have to delete and then down load a new version of Medallionclass ,hope not as everything is currently uploaded and ready to go!

For iOS/iPhone it was merely an update - not delete and reinstall.

Today’s update of my iOS version of the MedallionClass app added OceanConcierge so it’s no longer necessary to access it through a web browser.

 

Thanks for the information, Frank. I saw your post appear and started looking for the update. It wasn’t available here in Australia until about 5 hours later. But I have it now and it’s working perfectly. 👍 Cheers. Bill

We paid in full yesterday.  We still have one circle that is not green.  It's our Cruise Personalizer.  We have chosen not to pre-book excursions or any other options in the Personalizer.  So our OceanReady Pass says we are "Incomplete".  Does anyone know how to complete our OceanReady Pass without booking anything in the Cruise Personalizer?

In my understanding, you do not need to book anything in the Cruise Personalizer. Once you have filled in all the information in the section titled "Guest Check-In", you are finished. See quote in blue from the Guest Check-In page. If you have provided all the Guest Check-In information that is required, and the MedallionClass™️ app still shows "incomplete", you may be having an issue with the app itself.  Good Luck!

Getting ready for your Princess MedallionClass Vacation

Two quick steps for an easy check in:

1. Required Passenger Check-In

   Start by completing all the required information for each passenger listed below. This may include providing your guest information, your emergency contacts, your shipboard account details and other important steps.

What??? Your’s doesn’t show “traditional”??? ☺️

Guess we’ll see you soon.

There is nothing "traditional" about me.... Be there, or be square!

My CP shows a confirmed traditional dining assignment but like you “My Journeys” shows “Any” so it’s apparently another MedallionClass glitch which is on all 3 of our future MC cruises. 🙄

 

Of course for those of us who chose Any, the My Journeys is showing correctly...! 😃

Hope the photos help.

 

YES - looking at the underside of the OM clip, the gap between the arrowheads appears just right to fit over my continuous loop watchband. Thank you very kindly for that!!

17 minutes ago, idahospud said:

The number is how many cruises you’ve already completed. I believe the A stands for adult.

Do you have your ruler handy - to measure the size of the clip on the OM clip holder - to see if it will fit over my watchband which is ¾ inch wide (2 cm)? Thanks!

"Adult" in body only - still young at heart!! In December, I'll look at our grandsons' cruise cards (non-Medallion cruise) and see what letter they have after their number. Thanx.

4 minutes ago, idahospud said:

I can confirm the Passenger Services desk can print you a cruise card. It’ll look just like the old ones with your name, ship, sailing date, muster station, dining arrangements, number of cruises and folio number on it.

Hi Deb. OK - never thought about that number on the bottom right hand corner of the cruise card, or what it meant. What does the "A" after the number mean, please? Thanks. Bill

Nope... I got back to check-in before the other party arrived.

 

Security got an eyeful when I got to boarding.

I'm sorry for you, but that's almost Too Funny! Murphy's Law: If it can happen, it will...." So, was anyone back at the check-in just a bit embarrassed by having given you the wrong medallions??

Agreed - it would be nice if Princess gave passengers an either/or choice: lanyard or sport clip. They are probably a very similar cost - to Princess. Maybe next year....

Princess could at least have offered you a complimentary bottle of wine or a coffee card for your inconvenience in having to backtrack to check-in....

Just got off the Royal and thought I would share my thoughts...

• check your medallion.... I picked up mine at the port.  The staff gave me SOMEONE else's.  Security turned me back and get the right one.  Your name is printed in small print on the medallion rim.  Kinda hard to read for a senior.  The printed paper instructions were even smaller
• I wish the sport clip was free.  Why should I need to pay extra to not have something around my neck?

Was all set then checked to see if my new Sky December 1st was in my Ocean profile. Now it has renamed my Regal Thanksgiving to the Sky and The actual Sky cruises are not listed. 

 

Hmmmm.... Seems like there are a few problems?! We became "Ocean Ready" a couple of weeks ago and I'm not going back in to "check" on anything....  We don't have any other OM cruises booked.

I thought it would be a great idea to have a sticky so everyone can put their questions in one place for any questions about the ocean medallion so others who have experienced it or have answers could help out rather than having many threads open.

 

This is a great way to share experiences and knowledge.  Plus maybe we can get some official answers on here at some point!

 

There is a thread where you do get official answers from a Princess person whose name is "AskOceanMedallion". Here's the link:

Out of curiosity, if you just get a medallion with the lanyard, is there any charge (shipping, handling, etc) to have it shipped to your house?

No charge if you live in the US.  If you live outside the US, you’ll have to pick it up at the port.

Thanks to all who took the trouble to post screen shots and additional information. I was able to complete all the OR steps, including putting screen shots on my photo in my Photo Gallery. I've now got all sorts of boarding documents; hopefully that will save a little time getting on the ship. If not, no biggie, I don't recall ever waiting so long to board a Princess ship.

 

Doug

You're very welcome. I, too, don't recall ever waiting too long to board. We're travelling with friends - they have not done any of the OR stuff and we have, so it will be interesting to see how our boarding experiences differ. Having been involved with computers my whole career, I like to see a new system emerge, see how it works, see what problems (& solutions) it has, etc. Learning new stuff is fun and keeps the brain active!

Cheers. Bill

I do not recall seeing anything like that when I (thought I) completed the OR steps. I had a little photo of my wife and myself with a green border, and a check in it. I do not recall doing anything with the "Cruise Personalizer".....did you complete something under it using the OR app? What items? I have already printed my boarding passes and luggage tags, but the only reason I completed the OR was to get onto the ship maybe a little quicker.......

Cruise Personalizer was completed the old fashioned way on the Princess website.  I used the MedallionClass™ app - not OceanReady.

I got to that point but don't know how to take a screen shot.  Is one code good for both of us?

Do a Google search: "screen shot on ....(name of your device)". It's usually very straightforward. 

Each of you will have a separate code.

The other option is to have the app up and running when you get to check-in and show the Passes on your device;

This is what the OceanReady Pass looks like.  FYI

So here is my question. I am on the royal in a week so i downloaded all 4 apps and tonight downloaded the new single apple with all
Apps within what is everyone using.

It’s a lot easier now. It wasn’t last year. When the Ocean Ready app first  came out.

I had to call The IT number at least 5 or 6 times.

I have all the apps loaded but used only the MedallionClass™ app and have obtained the following:

- screens showing our OceanReady Passes (which I have copied - just in case)

- a screen saying Congratulations, my order has been placed successfully, and

- an email confirmation of the order

All ready to Rock 'n Roll....

In April we sailed B2B (Mexican Riviera & Coastal to Vancouver) on the Royal & never had to remove the Medallion from the aftermarket Fitbit clip holder...not in port, not on the ship.

 

I rechecked my OM in that clip holder & the material was flexible enough to see the name, ship & date.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.  I'm sure that some people will be pleased to hear it!

If your going to carve the Fitbit Zip Holder up why bother? Just put the Medallion in your pocket. 

Tony

Agreed. It will be interesting to hear from people who have non-Princess products....
