  1. Go to this Princess Specialty Dining webpage where you will find menus. https://www.princess.com/en-us/ships-and-experience/onboard-experience/food-and-dining/specialty-restaurants
  2. The article I shared in post #58 has info from a travel writer who went to Spellbound. Although the dinner was not included in his experience he did describe more about it including writing: “Guests will start the evening with dinner in the Horizons Dining Room, choosing from a menu not found elsewhere on board”. Also in the screenshot posted by ‘azbirdmom’ dress pants and blazer with a collared shirt & tie are allowed in addition to a suit & tie.
  3. Yes…sadly it was destroyed in the fire like so many other memorable places in Lahaina. 😢
  4. Yes…they set aside a section at the aft end of the buffet.
  5. Based on the Princess dining options PDF these are the casual dining options: Saltydog Gastropub Vines Steamers Seafood (pop-up) Planks BBQ (pop-up) https://www.princess.com/content/dam/princess/corporate/pdfs/restaurants-dining-venues-on-board.pdf.coredownload.inline.pdf
  6. A ghost pianist and color-changing cocktails: Inside Princess Cruises' hidden magic club https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/cruises/2024/03/26/inside-spellbound-magic-castle-princess-cruises/73027713007/
  7. Thanks…we’ll be sailing on Discovery soon…how did you learn about it? From your waitstaff? Would you know if a Winemakers Dinner is available? I’ve enjoyed the $45 Silverado version in the Wine Cellar numerous times but recent reports from Discovery state only the $140 Caymus version was offered in the Crown Grill.
  8. We sailed 28 days on Sky Princess in a sideways (parallel to the hallway) interior cabin around the Med & ending in Ft Lauderdale. That worked for us and provided us with more money to spend on shore excursions & other onboard spending. There is no right or wrong answer…just decisions based on each passenger’s preferences.
  9. Thanks…my coffee tastebuds liked it on Celebrity & afterwards bought Lavazza K-cups for at home. ☕️
  10. Yes…at anytime it’s open. There have been reports that the pasta options at Alfredo’s have been removed from some menus.
  11. Based on the Princess dining options, Sky’s casual dining options are Alfredo’s, Ocean Terrace Seafood and Vines…$14.99 without a package. https://www.princess.com/content/dam/princess/corporate/pdfs/restaurants-dining-venues-on-board.pdf.coredownload.inline.pdf
  12. I’ve read posts from those who ordered them for delivery but they didn’t arrive before boarding which slowed down boarding. They got a cruise card at check-in to allow them to board & then had to wait in a long line at Guest Services to have them make their Medallion…not a good way to start a cruise.
  13. Thanks…we’ll be boarding Crown in Brisbane next March which will be our first time there…hope you had a good flight & enjoyed the area. 🙂
  14. Interesting thoughts…Checking my ships found these situations to pre-purchase SD: Crown: Currently sailing on the West Coast & our cruise next year in Australia has AUD OBCs & advance booking of SD of $35/$39 USD Royal: Currently sailing in the South Pacific & our cruise next year from NZ to LA has USD OBCs & advance booking of SD is $55/$63 USD which are actually AUD prices. Thus for me the Crown fits your thoughts about prices being based upon ships current locations however that does not apply to Royal. So there appears to be no reason other than it’s another app glitch that needs to be fixed.
