First night and last night - no problem

@geoherb thanks for the pics - If we get to do this, I need to remember to ask that kiwi not be plated on the canapes ... wife is highly allergic

which, would also reduce the seating area for the non-revenue buffet... according to most posts here - planks and steamers was never really a revenue producer - much like the pop-up Crab Shack

when ordering wine in Vines - I just usually say something like - I'll have a Cab - we have the PLUS package - I'll defer to your selection - never been disappointed ... I'm a simple man

I was once asked to take off my visor ... still had on shorts and a long sleeve shirt, no problem

retrofit the Crown class ships to a Gigi's (aka Alfredo's) - major score/ win for Princess

I'm guessing the "2 pats of butter" have been resolved by Princess and that is no longer a concern for passengers - at least Princess took care of that

from what I have read - this thread is 90%+ in regards to DMW, TD, and AT - I guess that is the most troubling "princess tradition" that has gone askew, huh?

welcome to CC ... enjoy your cruise on the Crown Princess

I would venture the verbiage is there in the event Princess chooses at some point in time to enforce it - maybe based on the casino cashout abuse... No excursion booked thru Princess? - No credit

agreed - look at final folio - $100 credit for excursions - no excursions noted - "POOF" - shore excursion credit disappears from folio EDIT - can the shore excursion credit be used to book excursions pre-cruise?

OK ... looks like we have a week or so until any potential bidding opens on our cruise for late November.

@Thrak did they have these in the Wheelhouse Bar on some ships in the past?

How Does Princess Upgrade Work? You will receive an email invitation after all eligibility requirements are met and have opted-in to receive marketing emails from Princess. Log in , go to your profile and make sure you have opted-in to marketing emails EDIT: a suite is now showing as available for our cruise - it is $1,340 pp more than our current price for a deluxe true aft balcony Whadda ya think I should bid if contacted? - 5 day cruise

nothing yet... CB - after 10/1 - we've paid final, not due until 9/9 as per the Princess website - we are in the highest balcony (deluxe) with no mini's or suites showing as available to book ... we are true aft - so 'maybe' we could bid on a middle? - no desire for a mini, even if it comes available for bid - we would possibly look at a bid for a full suite, again, if it becomes available - but our bid wouldn't be a lot based on our short cruise - maybe $50 pp per day MAX

is the ultimate balcony dinner being offered? we've got a nice balcony and some OBC to use ...

thanks - just curious - will you get those same 'casino discounts' on Virgin?

so, you pay $650 for a cruise listed on the website at $1,000 that I pay?

thanks - didn't go to the link, yet ... but now I understand it's a lifestyle choice, and not a medical choice like people who have to carry an Epipen and seek immediate medical attention if they somehow eat or are exposed to something they are highly allergic to.

so, you don't get violently sick or go into shock, like someone who has a peanut or dairy allergy? Just trying to learn

is being vegan/vegetarian a 'medical condition' choice, or just a personal choice - definitely not a thread-hijack here, sorry EDIT - I guess I'm asking what happens if you eat something not vegan/vegetarian?

if you get charged for a drink(s) that you didn't have (not mischarged because of the package) does that mean that someone who actually ordered that drink(s) didn't get charged? - and who knows what goes on 'behind the scenes' with the PLUS packages??? People getting to know the bartenders (wink, wink) and leaving a generous tip for a "free" drink charged to someone else ( maybe with the PLUS package ) cue the music..

as I sit at my home office desk...waiting on the NASCAR race tonight...waiting on the FSU at LSU football game tonight... sipping out of my Princess -Coca-Cola tumbler - sailing is so refreshing - a screw-top 2018 Jacobs Creek Cab - Double Barrel - "selectively finished for 2 months in Aged Irish Whiskey Barrels" - while finishing off some "hot" breaded shrimp from Hooters from a couple of nights ago (not really sure how that happened)... pretty sure some "hot cheese" is not a deal breaker ...😉 EDITED: - this wine was a recent BOGO at our local ... Publix ... I stocked up

be sure to get a itemized statement from the medical center - may cost you $28 also be sure to get a finalized folio from your cruise showing you paid the medical cost which was charged to your on board account

how many "Princess pours" are there in a bottle of wine?
