I think we got the email around the same time! However, DH had been previously verified. The email said something like “Since you’ve been previously verified look out for an email December 5. “ The first responders discount was previously a fabulous deal!! Hoping for something similar this time

Just checked again. Still nothing in email

We've got the "you've been verified email" saying we'd get something today and we've yet to see anything. Patiently waiting....

Thank you for sharing. That really is a shame! Guess I will have to switch to espresso too!

We also enjoy the laundry perk. If they took that away my DH would lose his ability to say he won't cruise another line because of THAT. I hope they don't take it away. The mini bar set up we usually give to our favorite bartender.

It's been a while since they haven't given free regular coffee unless you have the coffee card or drink package, at least previously, before the cruising shutdown. Since the cruising restart I feel like they want every penny they can get, so I'm guessing no free drip coffee.

I suspect they will up the search for rum runners. The secret squirrel methods will need to be investigated. I'm sure some embarkation ports will be more stringent than others.

I agree with Caribill. Usually when something we like is missing, we ask where we can find it 🙂 Always ask for brownies if you want them and can't find them 🙂

You didn't ask me, but I'm starting to worry about all the bad comments about food since the restart. We haven't cruised since the restart so don't have an opinion yet. We have one cruise booked with Princess. If that one doesn't meet our expectations we will be trying Oceania next. We may actually try it before our next Princess cruise.

I hate when I have to go get drinks removed when I have the package. Get your $h!t together!! I've had to do it at least once per cruise, usually more. That Out of stock issue would definitely have me requesting a refund. I could have purchased the cheaper package, but if you can't support it, give me back my money!

No matter how long a cruise, by the end, DH is always ready to go home 🙂 Sorry the last night was sub par. We always do specialty dining on our last night and this would have been a disappointment. 😞

That is so logical and simple!! Never thought to do that!! Duh! I just feel like a turd requesting to adjust the gratuities vs pre paying or just paying the new amount. However, the logic works, "I'd like to reduce the gratuities to what they were when I first booked the cruise, thank you". Don't know that I would feel comfortable, but something to ponder! Thanks!

I love the wine makers dinner even more than Chef's table because I can eat everything I am served. With the Chef's table, there is so much delicious food I just cannot eat the main entree. Happy to pay for the Wine maker's dinner every time we can!!

I also love SHARE

This was a browser issue for me. Try using MS Edge, or something different than what you used to print the tags

I haven't had the opportunity to bid yet, but I thought the bids were just for passenger 1 and 2. If you have a third, they don't pay the bid price? Heck, I may have misunderstood. 🤷‍♀️

Well, those martini glasses are a nightmare to walk with. 🙂 Hopefully AtlantaCruiser72 is right and it's just a temporary issue. I'll gladly take mine in a short "rocks glass" as Thrak calls them 🙂 which is also what I request if not staying at the bar.

Can you have a passport card without a passport? I am a scaredy cat and while I may bring my passport card as identification off ship, I always bring my passport with me. Sorry to hear your friends just went through this. It's an expensive mistake 😞 I would be devastated. I hate that there are multiple interpretations of what is allowed, passport office, TA, and the cruise port. Absolutely TERRIBLE 😞

Agreed, Mini Suites are not Suites, but while these are "recommended" arrival times, people show up when they want. Looks like boarding begins at noon on this cruise. It will be more crowded in the beginning and if all people arrived during their' "time" it would be less chaotic, but people get there when they want. At least, that's how it's been in our experience.

I think it's the latency that is the problem. My speeds are also similar but 0 latency at home

Thank you!! Good to know!

Oh, I guess you are right. Apologies. Well, hoping they announce what the food options are on our next cruise, because it's definitely not something we attend on most nights. Just a couple of things the fam likes.

I love that!! What a great idea!!

We don't have anything we plan to book with this discount, but are looking forward to seeing what the offers are and possibly booking, depending what it looks like. If I recall correctly from last time, they were offered at an excellent price.

The last time we cruised, yes, they let us know what the appetizers were per day on a card.
