  1. Passengers can upgrade to Premium if they wish on embarkation day, I have always been happy with Princess Plus but have a 5 night cruise booked and am considering paying the difference. Which in some small way might explain the discrepancy in reserved seats. Anyone that bullies the crew over this should be disembarked at the next port.
  2. The screen shot shows you should have the Princess Plus package. Sorry I can’t be of more help, try posting in the casino forum lots of responses usually to land based casino offers.
  3. When is your cruise? If it’s after August 1st and you opted to pick up your Medallion at the port you will revert to blue, or if you’re outside the US same thing. Only takes a few minutes normally so really not a problem.
  4. I book offers through the Princess Players club and there is a similar screen for what is included in my bookings. Before I book online I select the cruise and the cabin I want and at the payment screen I have the option to put it on hold. I then get a booking number and can see all the details of my booking including my Free Play and Princess Plus. The booking drops off at midnight so if there are issues I know immediately. If correct I have the option to go to the payment screen and complete the booking. YMMV but this method works for me.
  5. Read on another site that it was passengers who had the Plus package who were causing most of the drama. Very easy to find out what the packages include it’s in the Personalizer and also the app under Packages. Staff know as soon as they scan their medallion which package they have but unfortunately some passengers don’t read and don’t listen.
  6. Not optimistic for September but maybe by late October it will be available, just have to wait and see I guess. Glad I’m not cruising the beginning of August though.
  7. No changes come into effect August 1st no definitive word yet (at least that I have seen) as to when we will be able to order them.
  8. I am cruising out of Vancouver in September and if its possible to have my medallion shipped to me after last year's boarding fiasco I'm all over it. The way I read it is if you are green and already have your medallion you can skip check in altogether and go straight onboard. Someone on another site was claiming it was going to cost $150 to have it shipped to Canada lol if you don't have Plus or Premium.
  9. You won’t have any issues getting this fixed onboard they deal with this every cruise.
  10. Awesome! But I admit I drop by the Crown Grill or Sabatini's a day or two before and confirm they have the correct day and time especially if its a special occasion. They no longer send the little cards with the details of the reservation so I like to make sure there are no issues. Enjoy!!!
  11. You can just select your cruise and scroll down until you see this Check-In With the MedallionClass™ App 1 1 Download the MedallionClass™ app Don't have a compatible device? Try our web version(opens in a new window)
  12. Have you checked to see if your app has an update? If not delete it then try reinstalling that works for most bugs, and if not below is another option. For one of my cruises I had to make them on the desktop. Log in and select your cruise then scroll down until you see this (Try our web version) and the option to make reservations was in there for me. 1 Download the MedallionClass™ app Don't have a compatible device?

  13. Our airport hotel had a shuttle that took us to 13 Coins for dinner. Nice way to relax after our flight down,
  14. Wow I'm old enough to remember a lot of the original episodes.
  15. Standard balcony cabins have nowhere to sit other than the bed or the one chair provided. I would look at the deluxe balcony or mini suite. If you choose a cabin that just has a shower which are quite small I’ve seen photos where parents bring a small blow up pool and put it in the shower.
  16. I found if I keep tapping the log in button it will sign me in. Usually a couple taps will do it. YMMV
  17. Check your credit card statement to see if one of them is a pending charge that will drop off in a few days. It may be just the way they process the photos you bought.
  18. If I have questions I use the Chat option in Facebook Messenger and have for years. Outstanding customer service always and the response time is usually pretty quick.
  19. On a few cruises I have requested a mattress topper from my cabin steward and it’s worth it to me to tip extra for that. Recent cruises we have either stayed at the front or the aft and tip extra for room service, drinks etc these cabins are the furthest away from the bars, kitchen etc. Absolutely worth the $2 or so extra I tip to have someone deliver my orders especially morning coffees. Its an individual choice and I’ve been told I was virtue signaling by posting that we tip extra but to me it’s no different than a land based restaurant we tip above the norm if we feel the level of service warrants it.
  20. Invited Member must be booked and stay in the free room and sail on entire cruise. If, for any reason, the Invited Member does not sail but the guest does, guest will be charged the full fare. Not sure though if they would have to pay the full single supplement, I would consider just canceling it altogether.
  21. If you check the Abbotsford airports website there is a shuttle option. I haven’t used it but they were very responsive when I called for a price. We Ubered out to Abbotsford last year and it was $64 IIRC non surge pricing.
  22. Mine expires in December’23 and I received an email from them last week advising me to renew now. My last renewal did not require an interview hoping that has not changed. IIRC they have extended the grace period to 12 from 6 months for those that have sent in their renewal application.
  23. International flight recommendation is still 3 hours prior I believe. Do you know how many ships are in port that day, makes a huge difference for transportation to and checking in at the airport.
  24. You can buy it onboard first day of your cruise for the same price. Unless you purchased insurance through Princess and then it is a bit cheaper as it doesn’t become part of your fare.
