Lotus Spa Brochure Problems?

I wanted to download the new Lotus Spa brochure from the internet and I couldn't do it from the princess website. I have Adobe, so I can definitely download pdf files, but after trying to access it, I get a blank screen? Could it be because I have AOL? Has anyone else successfully downloaded the brochure?

Thanks

I just dled it and it opened. However, I am on a mac. It did not automatically open in Acrobat Reader like pdfs generally do. Instead, it opened in another program that's on Macs called preview. You might right clicking and checking the properties.

Yes I have downloaded the Spa brochure. I don't have AOL so not sure if that is your problem or not but it is definately downloadable.

I tried to download the brochure and got a blank screen in Adobe Acrobat. I, too, am on AOL.

Two things might be happening here:

1) The Lotus Spa pdf is a very large file (lots of hi res photos) and will take a long time to transfer over. I have DSL and it took about two minutes, so dial up could be around 10 minutes. You may have to wait a long time to just see the first page, hence the blank screen.

2) Your browser might not be set up to automatically open pdf's. If you know you have Adobe Acrobat installed, try saving the pdf file to your hard drive and then opne it up directly in Acrobat. (Right clicking on the link and choosing "save target" or file will usually do the trick).

HTH, Steve

I just hate that Acrobat thing. I went to my daughter's booking and copied all the selections and put in an e-mail to her so I copy them here for you. On this Post Now page, I had to go through and edit it to take out all the extra line spaces. I hope the format is ok, although a little funky. Now you can just print it from here and it will be more concise. I love the Spa and Princess management should make it better than ever. A cruise is no vacation without visits to the Spa.

I SEE THE FORMAT GOT A LITTLE MESSED UP, BUT I THINK YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE SEA DAYS AND PORT DAYS RATES. In addition, I think that this is only the Massage portion. Facials are on another menu. Go to your booking or I will try again also.

I forgot:

I just called Princess to ask about the 15% Gratuity note at the bottom. They said they will remove it from your folio at the Pursers desk, or better still, tell the Purser as soon as you board that you will tip in person in the Spa. Just watch your bill. I like to tip in cash currency of the country. The therapists appreciate this.
