We are on Majestic in two weeks and on the App, the daily list of activities shows the $10 sale on the second last day.

Some media here is just pathetic. Added to this is that Western Australia was our own North Korea like, hermit kingdom with Covid. They had closed borders longer than any other States here, and it no surprise any outbreak there has led to some hysteria by some (only some) media outlets.

That happened to me all the time and one of the experts on here hopefully will point you in the right direction. I just use my email and password to open the App now. Don't worry, it's not you.

Not offered in Australia according to the page when opening that link.

Not sure. I have never considered Princess insurance and I don't think many in Australia do. In my case, and I expect most others here, we often travel overseas for cruises and include land stays before/after the cruise and I'm not sure whether Princess covers the entire trip, or just the cruise component (and I assume EZ air if you use that option). Certainly it has never been offered as an option by my TA and I've never met someone here that has had Princess insurance. I don't see the point of taking it it if it doesn't cover my entire trip. If I am mistaken, I'd love to know and would check it out in the future.

Interesting question about insurance, however what would be the reason for cancellation? Down here, at least, you would not be able to claim on the basis that you cancelled because you were worried about catching Covid. Any company here that offered Cancel for Any Reason policies have stopped offering it, for now anyway.

As said time and time again. Despite the changes, if this your concern, booking a cruise was risky in the extreme.

Yes they will. There are plenty of cruisers that don't have a device that can download the App. Just make sure that you have all the necessary paperwork with you.

Took me 17 weeks following our cruise in May to get my refund. After about 12 weeks I sent an online enquiry and got the standard email response. Two weeks later I used the online chat and although I couldn't get an exact answer the Agent advised that they had sent an urgent internal email up the line. I received the refund about 10 days later. Good luck.

Me too. The new muster drill is great background noise to unpack by. Just don't leave your room while it's on. I went into the hallway to talk to the steward and the system picked up I'd left my cabin and we needed to replay it!

There is a link, sort of. The wording about doing this part on the Personaliser is underlined. When you click on that it just takes you to the Personaliser log in page. Useless. The Roll Call is pretty quiet and I do have a TA but I'm not wanting to pester them about yet another piece of Princess incompetence. I've done all the Wellness stuff that I'm allowed to do and am green lane, so we'll just see what develops with this part.

Yep, I know it should be on the Personalizer but I can't find it, despite going all through it. Not in the Travel Summary but I'll try the web version of the App. (EDIT - nope that didn't work). I'm hoping someone has actually found it.

I am very sorry to start yet another thread related to Covid, however can someone please answer this question. We are on an Australian cruise on the Majestic next month and I am Green Lane. I have used the App previously and generally have no problems with it. However when looking at the Wellness Check on the App there is a blue box with the wording "Guests sailing from Australia, please fill out the required COVID-19 ACKNOWLEGDEMENT FORM via Cruise Personalizer in addition to these forms". The forms below this box are the Wellness Form and the Upload Documents box but this other form is supposedly in the Personalizer. I have gone through the Personalizer and cannot find the Acknowledgement Form anywhere. I found a reference to it but no link or no form. Does anyone know where this Form is hiding. (one would question why everything else like this is on the App but we are directed to the Personalizer for this Form). Any help greatly appreciated.

I embrace technology but not everyone has to do it your way. I prefer a desktop - I have a smartphone, a laptop and a tablet but prefer the larger keyboard and screen of a desktop. As for printing, I recently did a UK cruise and after it I was attending a football match. The tickets were sent by email (the only option)during the cruise and I needed to print them off at the internet cafe. I dislike checking in for flights on my smartphone. You do things the way you like and let others do what they prefer.

Yes they have green tea bags, although sometimes you may have to ask for them as sometimes we found there were none in the tray.

Majestic November 12 - 59/60 days

We disembarked 21 May and I received the refund last week. This was after making an online enquiry, for which I received the generic email acknowledging my enquiry. Nothing for a further two weeks so then I used on line chat. I doubt if I would have received it had I not followed this up. Terrible service.

There has been a separate area on the ships I have been on that sell the Medallion accessories. It does have a name that I can't recall it but it is centrally located (I think usually near the photo gallery area). I haven't seen the accessories in one of the traditional on board shops. Yes you can use OBC to pay.

I agree with your every word......but did you have to light the fire.

Finally today I received our cheque for the refund of OBC from the cruise we disembarked on 21 May. The cheque was dated 21 September so that's 4 months since we finished the cruise. In the last few weeks I sent an online enquiry and then used the online chat so without that I assume we would still be waiting. As mentioned in other threads, even though we used my credit with my name, the refund cheque was in the name of my partner who booked under a different surname. Why, they do this I don't know but we have joint named accounts so it doesn't matter. Overall a completely unacceptable delay.
