I don't feel that way. None of the things you mention ever made Princess feel special to me. In the past year, we have sailed on the Majestic, twice on the Regal and twice on the Enchanted for a total of 67 days. We had no problem with wifi and enjoyed ordering items from our cabin using the medallion App. While we did have a few issues, particularly the slow internet, we enjoyed our cruises just about as much as we did before the pandemic. We have five cruises booked that we are looking forward to, particularly the Solar Eclipse cruise in 2024.

Another thing I think might be new related to pricing. In the past, if I cancelled an EZair flight between final payment and the 45 day window, it used to show as a credit on the booking balance. It also took forever to get it refunded. Recently, I cancelled an EZair flight. Nothing showed the amount, so I might have forgotten about it, except I did submit a refund request. Last week, I booked a new cruise and was surprised I didn't have to make a deposit. I looked at the payment and the EZair amount was listed as a payment.

My solution would be to ban smoking in venues that appeal to both smokers and non smokers.

We also received a check today from Paymode X for the refundable OBC for our cruise on the Enchanted Princess that ended on August 5, 2022.

I don't attend meet & greets either. Nobody seems to mind

On my last cruise, I set up an account, bet $1.00 playing Blackjack on the stateroom tv, closed out the account and cashed out at the Casino. A couple of days later I did the same thing again. No problem. One reason I did this was my daily account was showing a decrease in my refundable, not my nonrefundable. Following is from my final account. Wish I had saved one of my daily accounts. 28-Jul OCEAN Games 200.00 30-Jul OCEAN Games 150.00 Cruise was from July 22-August 5.

Wouldn't be Miroslava, would it? She worked in Vista. She always made sure I had a pillow on my chair at Platinum/Elite lounge.

Wish I had taken a few screenshots of the account, because I am pretty sure they were doing just the opposite on my recent cruise on the Enchanted. That is why I cashed out the nonrefundable early on.

I set up an account on my TV and play a couple of games of Blackjack. Then close out the account and go down to the Casino to get my cash.

No door sign, Also requested no singing at dinner, which was honored. They have enough to do

I agree. Using the magic method I ended up with $2.00 more than the OBC. I generally only. use that method for the nonrefundable OBC. I don't mind waiting for the refundable, which hasn't ever taken longer than 4 months. Don't care to carry a lot of cash with me.

Maybe just another thing to cut so they can stay in business.

Or you could be in your own little world.

We don't use the pools. I do use the hot tubs. We don't go to the over amplified production shows. We spend the time in Crooners or the Piazza. We have early dining in the MDR after a few glasses of wine in the Platinum/Elite Lounge. We still bother to cruise. Have 4 Princess cruises and 1 NCL cruise booked. Avoiding the Melanoma Deck didn't help us. My DW still tested positive for Covid the last day of the cruise, Just got back to the states after 10 days of isolation and quarantine. Still like Princess, especially after looking at my recent booking with NCL and seeing how much I am going to be nickel and dimed on that cruise.

Yea, he certainly has brought some new innovations to princess. This is one several other cruise lines have been using for a long time. I like him.

Somehow I think it is having so many people to process so many claims.

Delegating resources to deal with pesterers might contribute to the delays.

The original Love Boat was stupid and I wasted a lot of time watching it.

Isn't this forum Social Media?

I have three experiences. 1.It always takes a long time. 2. Princess has always gotten it right eventually. 3. It is a waste of time to stress about it. We had over 11 cancelled cruises that resulted in lots of FCCs. Princess got it right to the penny, but it took months.. We are finishing up quarantine and isolation from a cruise on the Enchanted Princess. I'll submit my refund requests to Princess and Insurance and forget about it until next year.

Watched some good YouTube videos from Port Monkeys detailing his experience after testing positive on the Enchanted Princess last Spring. At the start of the experience, he said he said he wouldn't have felt right if he hadn't told Princess he tested positive, midway through he still felt that way, toward the end he wasn't so sure. There are about 5 videos from day 1 to day 16.

We like to eat dinner at 5:30 in the aft dining room. Often we will spend some time in Vista Lounge during the Elite/Platinum Happy Hour and then go down when the Dining Room opens. On the last few cruises, (two on Enchanted, two on Regal) this gave us a chance to chat with our servers before things got too busy. We haven't had any of the complaints I have been reading about, other than listing to our servers how stressful it gets later. We are pretty much common folks and seldom go to better restaurants in the countries we visit.

I agree. Once we started feeling better and learned how to call using the phone on the table instead of the one bedside we found the food and service pretty good. Didn't care much for the room lighting.

Also, Here is part of an e-mail I got from my CYP a couple of days ago. She is pretty good at cutting through the red tape. "Glad to hear you're on the mend. Take care, enjoy your time in London! Let me know if you need any other info for the refund claims."

Over the years I have tried them all. My current favorite is a Princess Cruise Vacation Planner.
