3,000+ Club (3/15)

  1. A few more of what is happening…. today Mumford & Sons live from South Africa on MUTS. a complementary liquid tasting from 5:30pm to 7 PM. I believe today Wednesday at the shops called essentials. Of course there’s live music in the Piazza. Kevin Brando is in Crooners on piano. Topaz is the party band. Tonight, which is Wednesday there is a comedian named Miguel Washington in the theater and I still call it the Princess Patters but apparently it’s still being called Princess event listings and it’s one page long and that’s it. Louis Ramos is in the wheelhouse playing some kind of music. The elite, platinum, & suite event for appetizers and drinks is in Sky Walkers in the evening . Family has been to Kauai a few times,so they stayed onboard. I believe there’s nothing really to see or walk to around the port area. That is all I have to report from family onboard.
  2. @Worn out mailman yes Internet only is $24.99 per day, per voyage ,per person for 1 device at a time. unless you are platinum or elite which I don’t think you are or you would know about it and it’s 50% off of that price. As others have said, wait to get onboard to add perhaps the plus package $60.00/ person per day. if that fits your budget.
  3. Found this under someone’s travel website. I don’t know how old these prices are ,but I believe a basic manicure plus the shellac would be $69 plus the mandatory gratuity.( maybe) I would think you could get this done anywhere in your home state/city for way cheaper. If you have lots of onboard credit, then no worry on the price .Are you able to look under your cruise personalize and pretend like you are booking a spa/nail appointment? That may give you the price .
  4. Yes, my family members are Elite .I just know they told me April 1st is their party at 7 PM. Haven’t really heard much about the cruise from them. Was hoping to get some patters, but that hasn’t happened. Yes ,I think there are quite a few captains circle parties, depending on what level you are at. I don’t have much information other than what pertains to them.
  5. I believe that least expensive room they can get for this 30 day cruise for a solo is $1624+ taxes, etc. ( I believe at this point it’s guarantee rooms only )If I had 30 days to be away ,it would be enticing to me as well. I’ve never cruised solo. Don’t know if I would ,I’m very social. But I would think the Flights to and from would cost more than the cruise itself ,but I say go for it to the OP . Can always go up or down a deck to get outside. Lots of people like the interior cabins -they can sleep longer because it’s dark and of course they like the interior room because then they can do other things with their money. Hope the OP lets us know if they booked or not. Definitely sounds like a great price.
  6. @Mrcruiser you must have “ hit” the rush in parking at San Pedro last year. I have parked there and been dropped off numerous times and very easy. Who knows what the port will do as far as the parking lot ,but I think it’s working the way it is .so I doubt that they would build a parking structure at this point, but they don’t usually share that information with us cruisers too far in advance. Try it again and cruise & park from berth 92/93.( world cruise terminal) parking lot is plentiful even with 2 ships in and out over the course of a week or two.
  7. April 1st is the Capains circle parties. No formal dress that evening ,smart casual. A few “ kids” onboard, even though this is a two weeks cruise some school-age children are off for two weeks from school, some are homeschooled,etc. My family has not visited the casual dining venues that are included in their plus ,so I can’t comment on any of that. They said Honolulu is warm, but not too hot and they are just winging it today and walking with no agenda. Just enjoying the day. .
  8. @Mintycake I see Gastropub and Vines on the deck plans,so this may be the only casual dining onboard. I have family members onboard now , I’ll try to see if they can give me an answer ,but who knows ,they’re probably having way too much fun on their vacation. Maybe planks and steamers too?
  9. I don’t have much to add…. Monday ,March 25th in Explorers lounge was a show/ event called Living Battle. Trivia type game. Family said it was ok. I don’t know if it was during the daytime or the evening. Maybe more onboard will add to this thread??
  10. Yes, I know. Merely pointing it out to @Mark_K they were asking if they had to wear long pants at lunch in the dining room.
  11. Don’t need long pants in the dining room for breakfast or lunch .dinner in the dining rooms -Long pants for men are probably what you should wear, but who knows nowadays …
  12. From family-Difficult to find seats at Explorers Lounge,lots going on there. Have found seats in theater no problem. Ship seems full & pretty crowded. Cool out as expected,lots out sunbathing though. @LawDog61 thanks for your Live. Hope more join in. I only have what to report from Family onboard and that’s it. Don’t have the Patters/ Event listings or anything of that sort.
  13. The Emerald Princess left San Pedro on March 21 at approximately 3 PM and March 22 through March 25 sea days. March 26 Honolulu March 27 Kauai March 28 Kona March 29 Hilo March 30 through 3 April at sea April 4 Ensenada and April 5 back to San Pedro. Just a little background- I have Family onboard and just receiving periodic updates. I did not see any other cruise critic members starting a live from ,so since this is my thread, I don’t have much to add, except for when I hear from the family member, so not really going to answer questions. If you are onboard Emerald,please add to this thread. To prepare for the three hour time difference from California to Hawaii on March 21/22nd they set the clocks back one hour ,on the 23rd to the 24th they set the clocks back one hour and tonight the 25th to the 26th same thing. Saturday - March 23rd was first formal night and Rock Opera production show in the theater. Friday night the 22nd seas were quite rough and continued during the day on Saturday. Ship was rocking pretty good and difficult to walk around the ship for my family members who have cruised often & are in pretty good shape physically,so chill day for them. Sunday, March 24th seas much calmer. They were able to find one of their favorite dinner/ D.R. Waiter so they are set up in their section. Also in Crown Grill they were able to see another favorite crew member.
  14. In my opinion you have a case,similar to my friend who was on Princess,but incident happened in theater. Similar -dim light before show started,etc. they definitely took an incident report, they definitely looked at her shoes, etc. etc. and she contacted a Maritime lawyer and was compensated ,so don’t discount a case. She was hospitalized for several days to a week or so.(I don’t remember the specifics) once they got to port after a long sea day . She was on pain meds & in ship’s medical center until getting to hospital in CA. Port. Good luck on the apology and on board credit, assuming you are still on board -it sounds. So I hope you receive both of those. That is good that you have pictures and videos.
