Quilter n Cruiser Posted December 15, 2012 #101 Share Posted December 15, 2012 What the H is Carnivalized? I just went to do a dummy booking for Spring 2014, just to see lots of availability. I think the new site is great; very helpful and you see just what is and what is not available. No guessing. I think I like it also Pia. It is nice to see what is booked and not Sharon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUZER2012 Posted December 15, 2012 #102 Share Posted December 15, 2012 One small snag that I notice is that rooms that will accomodate more than 2 people only show as available if you indicate a booking for three or more and don't seem to be available to 2 people in a room. I think this is a minor inconvenience, as they are generally not my first choice, but if there is nothing else available in a location I want, I would consider one and the new system doesn't seem to want to let me have one. I have sailed in one in the past with just 2 of us. My travel agent encountered this when i tried to book a mini-suite for one, that would be a mini for me traveling as a solo. I suggested entering 2 passengers and my accessible mini-suite appeared. He was able to deal with the issue. You may need help from someone.

MGAfhc Posted December 19, 2012 #103 Share Posted December 19, 2012 It looks like they have changed the Booking Site again. Now they just have a listing of 6 available rooms with no Deck Plans and no opportunity to enter a room number to see if it is available. Hopefully it's temporary while they take the bugs out of the previous version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, those cruises still use the old format with a limit of six cabins. I just looked at a cruise after the category changes and did see the new version which shows a deck plan and all available cabins in the area chosen. I looked at a cruise with the old cabin categories and saw six cabins and a space to enter a specific cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGAfhc Posted December 19, 2012 #105 Share Posted December 19, 2012 OK, now I see. It no longer works with my old IE 8, but works with Chrome. I am still running XP because I have Cad software that won't run on newer versions of Windows and is expensive to replace. Earlier the new Princess Booking Site did run OK.

FloatillaTheHun Posted December 19, 2012 #107 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Legacy is used to label historic applications that have been replaced, or superseded as you put it. That's what I said... :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantanaLobo Posted February 1, 2013 #108 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Using the new booking tool for the Grand Princess California Coastal, September 27, 2013, Aft Mini-Suite, middle deck, it shows D711, D712, D716, D717, D720, and D721 as interior mini-suites :eek: . I didn't read about that change during the drydock :). If you go to the aft interiors, it shows D714, D715, D718, D719, D722, and D723 as having balconies like a mini-suite. I can imagine someone who books e.g. D722 based on the booking engine will be a little upset when they get on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRUZER2012 Posted February 2, 2013 #110 Share Posted February 2, 2013 That's quite an error :eek: TRUE. But, if you book by cabin number you should be fine?!?! What do you think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted February 2, 2013 #111 Share Posted February 2, 2013 TRUE. But, if you book by cabin number you should be fine?!?! What do you think! As long as they do not charge the mini-suite price for that inside cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
