On my cruise this October on the Enchanted my Princess Love Boat Dream looked likeCoral's picture than the OP's picture and the pistachio dome looked a heck of a lot better.

In Brooklyn, the facial recognition scan took less than 5 seconds. No line for those of us who walked off because of the speed of the facial recognition.

We would always have formal nights left to argue about.

I would have missed it too, but it caught my eye when I moved the paper to make room for my laptop.

There was no card on my October cruise on the Enchanted, but the schedule for the lounge was printed on the bottom of one of information sheets provided on boarding. So, no cutback or semi-cutback, take your choice.

No. You would have to confirm that with the headwaiter the first night. We found a wait staff we liked in during our October cruise and arranged to be seated in their section for the remainder of the cruise.

i don't want to cause a rush but Wal Mart is having a sale on tin foil hat liners.

How is the medallion a "faulty system"? It has worked well for me and others. Do not confuse it with the Medallion app which has not proved to be effective in all cases. For those who do not want to be "tracked" please note that there aren't thousands of Princess staff onboard tracking your every move. I got no "targeted" advertising on my last two cruises with the medallion. What Princess is collecting is metadata about venue usage.

Correct, however on our recent cruise they were selling the medallion wearables before the cruise sailed away from Brooklyn to start our cruise.

I agree wholeheartedly! Everyone has the inalienable right to be a cheapskate:

Exactly, when I vacationed in Japan I respected their tipping norms, which meant that not only was there no tipping, but attempting to tip was considered insulting.

I made reservations on the app for my complementary specialty dining and the charge zeroed out when I finalized the reservations.

Please note that the OP is from the UK, where the tipping culture is different. Of course, they believe that their way is the only way. If you are worried about tipping costs during a longer cruise, perhaps you cannot afford to take that longer cruise.

When we booked excursions on our 10/29 cruise on the Enchanted we were given the option to pay using credit card or OBC.

Nope, not a problem.

We did not attend it during our Enchanted 10/29 cruise,

Got mine for my 10/29 cruise on the Enchanted this week.

On our cruise, they had the scanner at the tender and did not ask for ID.

On my recent Canada/NE cruise we were asked for ID and medallion (they did not have the scanner) from Canadian authorities before we were allowed to proceed back to the ship. This has also happened at several Carribean ports.

Princess "in their in infinite wisdom" did not strip creme brulee from the menu. I had it several times during my recent cruise on the Enchanted.

MDR - Prime Rib, Beef Wellington, Beef Medallions, Veal Scallopini, Twice Baked Goat Cheese Souffle, Creme Brulee International Cafe - Cubano Sandwich, Almond Croissant

Yes and Yes

Yes, the Wake Show is alive and well, it is prominently displayed on the TV screen when you turn it on in the morning.

Is this going to take up space on board from us peasants? Another step towards multi-class cruising! 😡

We had a mid-ship mini with an angled balcony (Marina 426) on the Enchanted and loved it.
