Same!  We have 2 crinkly and 4 regular!  They all seem like down. There is a pillow menu on the app.  Only 2 choices though

The Medallion app has the pillow menu? I looked but don’t see that option. Is it only accessible when you are on the ship? Where did you find it ?

Thank you for your great review!  One question, do we need to make a reservation for Salty Dog Gastropub?

We just walked right up.  No reservation was necessary.  I highly recommend the white tomato soup but the grilled cheese that comes with it was not good.  The cheese wasn’t melted.

Last night MUTS had Cruella which on other cruises would be added to the cabin’s movies list the next day but not this time.

Several of us who have been posting are B2B on the next cruise & I have not yet received the in-transit procedure.

@Astro Flyer I just called the Front desk and was told that we would receive it either this afternoon or tomorrow morning.  If you hear anything please let us know.

I didn’t pull the sheet off to look but it feel like foam with peaks.

I was just told that they don’t have any of those on the ship.  That would really help.

OMG we LOVE Steve Caouette. I really hope he is on for our April 29th coastal!

That guy gets around! I saw him in December on Enchanted and in March on Regal.

our phone not working. Doesn't recognize us as occupant in cabin so won't let us retrieve messages.

Also can't remove messages. Friends have wrong name on their cabin phone and ours have no one.

Pursers desk said shore side will have to fix the phone system.

Also billing screwed up. I am using my credit card with my husband as authorized. It won't allow me to see his charges because it has it as his credit card and me as user. I explained it is my card , not his. I have to go back with my card to prove  so they can change it. Little glitzes but again, nothing that would ruin our cruise.

It was on the TV the first 3 days of the cruise.  They disappeared the day prior to muts. Another bug maybe?

So, just to be clear - you all think the ENTIRE Dolphin deck is not being used unless for quarantine?  We are in D726 on 4/10 sailing and have not heard anything from Princess.  Had our TA check with Princess and they say we are still good for D726.  So you folks that were moved from Dolphin, how much notice did you get?

[RJAM3]

we are on the May 29th to Alaska and were upgraded from deluxe balcony on Dolphin to mini on Riviera deck three weeks ago but we did have the box checked when we first booked in January that we would accept any upgrade

We were notified on 2/11 for our 4/17 cruise. We had an aft D4 balcony and moved to Baja deck. 

Check your Summary to see if your cabin is the same, maybe the email they sent to you went to the junk folder.

You never know...we have a November cruise (not on Discovery) & got moved in February.

I just walked down the stairs past Dolphin and the cabins on the starboard side are available.

 

The port side fire door is closed with this sign

I had D724 taken from me early February for 4/10 since I don’t need a large corner anymore. Like tonit964 said, if you check your Summary or even when you open my booking it shows your cabin number. I hope you still have your corner but I would be shocked. I have checked almost every day to see if Dolphin opens up since I lost my cabin.  I do have Dolphin  booked for Super Bowl next year but that is a long way off. Good luck.

That’s good, maybe they will let him walk down there and cross over to his port side corner. I saw the same sign on the Majestic in Feb.

It seems that since we have sailed on the Medallion cruises, (three last year) that is the way the folio goes.  My husband and I walked to guest services (no credit card in hand)  they changed  it.  No problems.

Just checked booking summary on personalizer and medallion app - both still show D726.  We had D727 on Majestic in November.  Lots of people said we would be moved, but we weren't which is why we went for it again on this upcoming cruise.

Already done!

I have a question for those of you currently on board.  Did they provide the refillable jars of hand soap and body lotion? I usually bring my own but that will be two less things to pack if provided. Thank you in advance. Will be on board 4/17 and 4/24. Getting excited.

Nice to see that my photos aren’t the only ones being rotated on CC using MedallionNet. ☺️
