NinjaCat - Thats my brother, Chef Michael!!! How fun that you are there. Tell him I said hi!! He's on CC to so he will understand what you are talking about.

Yes. They had a taxi stand set up outside the port. We arranged with our driver to pick us back up later in the afternoon. It worked perfectly. We called her when we were ready and although she was on another fare, she sent someone else to come get us. No problems at all.

I would love your thoughts on the Legend. Sailing her next July for 12 days in Europe.

It was awesome! Good snorkeling, decent food and drinks, nice pool, not too crowded. I would totally go there again.

I have two cabins. This is what my son chose as his graduation present, so we are sailing. I have never sailed NCL either, but the charter company, sixthman, seems to be pretty legit. Really looking forward to this!

My daughter and I toured with Jayleen in June and she was Amazing!!

What I do is put luggage tags on anything I leave in the room. Those have the current sail date on them so the steward can see that they are not from the previous sailing. If I see a steward, I let them know that I left stuff there.

For my Elite in June, there was one excursion offered in each port (although we could only choose one total) we could pick which port or take the $150 per person for any excursion at any port.

Shout out to @Jamman54 for his recommendation of the Plaza Beach Resort in Bonaire. We are here now and it is amazing!! Thanks Jim! This will probably be our spot in Bonaire.

My son's cabin was on Deck 2

Well they cancelled my sons cabin. No email but they called, I am on the phone waiting for a supervisor now, but I do not have a lot of hope. Now to just see how I can make this better for my son. 😥

The October 24, 2023 was supposed to be my son's HS graduation cruise, but since he graduated in 2020, its been cancelled twice and rebooked. We have two cabins, my sons (25 &21) in one cabin and my mom and I in the other (ages redacted!). We had originally booked a balcony cabin, but just this afternoon got a call from Celebrity to move to Concierge Class because of the overbooking issue. I came here to see if anyone else had gotten a call and I am so sorry to see some people got cancelled! We are hopeful that this one actually goes forward as a Japan cruise is the only thing my son wanted to visit for his graduation. Each time we got cancelled, we would ask him if he wanted to switch to a different cruise instead and he always chose the lift & shift option, which is why we are celebrating High School graduation with my 21 year old!

I had a different experience. I did not get notified, the item was not there. I eventually went to GS and asked about it and that is when I was told it wasn't available. So I guess the safest thing is: Good lucK 😄

I'll be there on the 20th as well!

I had to go through my PVP. I could not do it on my own, but she could. And that is exactly what I did, put the boys in an interior across the hall from my balcony. She was able to list me as the "responsible adult" on the boys cabin.

He does not as long as the rooms are next door or across the hall from each other. I have booked my children in a cabin by themselves as 18 and 15 year olds, they just had to be close to me.

I am taking my first ever Princess cruise on Saturday and it was a comp from a Las Vegas casino. I too upgraded and added Princess Plus but the Princess rep had me pay that part right there, that way the remaining balance was all owed by the casino, not me. In my case, the casino paid fairly promptly and everything was fine but she did warn me that sometimes outside comp cruises don't get paid until the week before sailing. I am glad the Venetian didn't make me wait that long, I would have been crazy!

As someone new to Princess, is there a difference between "Formal" and "Dress to Impress?" Even though our itinerary is in reverse with one sea day in front and two sea days on the back end, I'm guessing the suggestions will remain the same.

Elyce - I am on the same cruise as you next week and all my paperwork says 2 formal nights so that's what I am planning for at this point...Not that I dress super fancy, but I do at least take off my jammies! 🤣

We will join you on the 14th...my Birthday! Love this kind of important information! Truly love finding a great bartender.

Perfect! That is about what I have so good to know! Thank you.

Hi All - I am getting ready for my first Princess cruise in a couple weeks and I have quite a few gift cards to apply to my account on board. My question is: Is there a limit to how many GC's I can add to my account once on board? Either max number of cards or max dollar amount? Thanks!

The Bordeaux market with the Executive chef on the final day was a real treat! We tried all sorts of food from the different stalls. Yes, we did a Pre-cruise land tour through Viking. They handled everything.

Hi y'all, I received a Princess comp cruise through my play at Venetian which I booked no issues. It will be my first time with Princess (Diamond on RCCL, Plat on Carnival, Gold on MSC). No issues with my booking so far, my only question is expectation of play for new offers. My usual bankroll is about 5k give or take. How is Princess on comps based on that budget if anyone knows? Thanks!

I got a 20% discount off of the fare. It has already been applied, although they have not yet changed my air.
