Thank you for posting the menus! 

Diver2014 - you are making the wait for our upcoming cruises go by a little faster - Thank you!

I have used a suction cup grab bar (Torn ACL, MCL  - Knee) for a year now and it does really hold, however I check them once a week to make sure they are still firmly attached. They do occationally give way if you do not check the suction regularily. They really help climbing in and out of the tub. It is a bit of a lesson in you get what you pay for though. The ones I have were purchased form a medical supply store and although a bit more expensive I have confidence that they will hold. I have used cheaper suction cup products before and they do not work as well. 

Smooth walls and someone that has attached something before is exactly what I wanted to hear!! Thank you!!

However practical, this may be a strange question, but has anyone ever tried to attach a suction cup shaving pedistal to the shower wall, specifically on crown Princess? The showers are so small I wondered if if might be easier to attach one to the wall of the shower?? Because it is removable it would not cause any damage.  The product instructions say it needs a smooth surface to attach correctly. Are the walls of the shower smooth? Has anyone tried a product like this before and did it work? 

 

If not does anyone have any tips to make these small showers more user friendly? 

 

Thanks for your help

Charlene

I thought that was a bit strange, I have never seen a formal night on a boarding day, that is why I asked 🙂 

Just to clairify is the first formal night on the day you board or is the first full day on the ship? 

Thanks

Charlene 

Thanks Diver2014! Sounds delicious and congrats on the great table by the window!

Thank you Diver2014!

I hope you have a great trip, looking forward to hearing all about it when you get back.

We sail August 17, so close but yet so far away... Starting to get really excited though. I'm excited for those of you sailing soon. 

Have a wonderful trip Diver2014! Thanks for posting! 

We are on the August 12 British Isles cruise on the Crown. Starting to get very excited. Hopefully when others get back from their cruise they will share some tidbits with us! 

Oh I didn't know the first British Isles cruise of the season had just started. I hope someone who is on it now comes back with a few pictures of the menus! Thanks Pacificlander 

Anyone have pictures of recent 12 day cruise menu's?

Does anyone have MDR Menu's for the Crown Princess. We are taking a 12 day British Isles Cruise on the Crown this August (our first Crusie with Princess) and would be very interested in seeing recent menus. 

 

Thanks,

Charlene

We renewed our vows on the Amsterdam (14 day Alaskan) for our 25th anniversary two years ago. It was very well done and very special to us. We lucked out and we were the only ones renewing our vows so it was a private ceremony. We invited 4 guests (paid - sorry I cannot remember how much it was). We received invitations for our guests a few days before the ceremony took place.  It was held in the Crow’s Nest, the area was walled off so it was very private. A Pianist played in the background the entire time. There were lovely appetizers and champagne along with cake. The flowers were beautiful and the staff went out of their way to make our event special.  It was held on our last sea day. We chose to book our included Pinnacle dinner for another night as we had been warned that with all of the appetizers and cake we would not be hungry for dinner and we were glad we did. The Captain was charming and we very much felt at ease. The staff allowed us to make some personal touches. My Dad read the speech that my Godfather had given at our wedding (a surprise for us)  and it was a very special touch. It was a heartfelt evening and I would absolutely recommend renewing your vows! 

No

Great info thank you!

Thank you, I will contact the rental company. That would be wonderful if they did set up close to the dock. 

We have rented a car from sixt. When we arrive is it possible to walk from our ship to pick up the car or will there be taxi available at the dock? 

I am glad it is still available, thank you for your responses. Does anyone have a list of wine that is available with these packages?

I have seen reference to Princess wine packages (silver and Gold) here on Cruise Critic posted in 2017 but I can't seem to find anything newer here or on the Princess site. We are doing a 12 day cruise in 2019 and are wondering if this is still available??

 

Thanks

We always get an extra key when we sail with our children one for their room and one for ours. It works great. A warning however, the key will open the door even if you have the deadbolt on. (on Celebrity and Holland American at least, I have not tested it on Princess but I would assume it would be the same). We accidentally discovered this one afternoon when our daughter walked in on my husband and I ... napping (wink, wink). Oops . Needless to say we laugh about it now. We still get the extra key but ask that they knock first!

Many many recent threads on this subject

Sorry I am new to Princess and I just spent the last few hours tying to find these answers and I was unsuccessful. We have sailed on other lines before and I just wanted clarification.

 

Thank you to the others who kindly answered my questions.

Thank you for your quick answers. Can you also bring a bottle of wine per person on board for consumption in your cabin?
