LIVE * Discovery * 4-day West Coast Getaway
HBCcruiser replied to HBCcruiser's topic in Princess Cruises
It has been done before. When we did a B2B and changed status from one cruise to the next the Captain's Circle staff slapped a new status sticker on the medallion. I had to laugh! Question is, can they be bribed, and what's the going rate for an Platinum/Elite sticker...🤔 -

Ahh but from what I recall you COULD be in a suite doing a LIVE review in a not so distant future. Just sayin' 😏 The medallion is one of those special orders that you can get in the App. It is basically a sticker. 😂 It's my friend's medallion. -

The best I can say is it would be like NCL charging a fee ($15.00) for Indulge but offering it free depending upon the package you buy. A few years ago Princess offered these casual dining venues free to all. Now they have added a charge. -

Yes. The medallions are wearable key cards. They allow you to order food and drinks and have them delivered right to you, they open your cabin doors, and are used when you order drinks and pay for items. You are also able to locate friends onboard (love that one). Casual Dining are semi-specialty dining venues that now charge a small fee unless you have the Premier Package. NCL does not have anything similar so hard to compare. OceanReady just means that you have entered all of your info (credit card, passport info, ect...) into the App and are ready to sail - Green Lane means you are good to go. Premium Desserts - I have not tried but YES. These are desserts on steroids. -
Anyone familiar with the s3 aft suite on the Discovery ?
HBCcruiser replied to Shippy's topic in Princess Cruises
I will be in one starting Thursday on the Discovery. I am doing a Live review if you are interested. -

LOL! On the contrary. We LOVE to ham it up! These are some samples of the types of photos we take onboard - including one we took with the photographer on a RCI ship. Way too fun! -

Guess I'll be hitting up Ebay for those. Just like the cruise ship ornaments that are IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!! I just don't understand why they can't sell these things online. They'd make bank! -

Are you sure we are not related? I am the same - can't for the life of me use chopsticks despite multiple lessons from my DH and DDs. 😂 AND my FAVORITE so far was the Winemakers Dinner on the Royal. I loved 360 but a lot of that was the presentation. -

Oh man! That sounds amazing! I just added it to my Discovery Cruise Notes. Which bar is the best to get it? Crooners? -

Interesting. I had no idea the two were similar and connected like that. Good to know - thanks! I am excited to try the Catch. I have not heard ANY bad reviews on it - and that is really RARE on CC and FB 😂. I am not really a sushi eater - Blasphemy, I know! A California girl not liking sushi??! E may like it though. I'll take a look at the menu. -

Looks like the Gigi votes have it! Thanks! I forgot how much food is included in 360. We may skip lunch all together and just enjoy the yummy eggs Benedict in the morning. 🥂 -

Yeh, I am leaning towards Gigi's on embarkation day too. Our sea day is day 3 which is the same day we are doing 360 so GOOD POINT! Eat lighter that day. How was the Crab Shack? -

"E" is supposed to arrive tomorrow around 11:30 AM. She is flying in from PA. I think that big snow storm will be gone by then so hopefully her flight is not delayed. HOWEVER, she booked a flight with only a 45 minute layover in DFW! That is very risky. Luckily, there are other flights she can jump on in case she misses the connection to LA. Our plan is to enjoy Hermosa Beach tomorrow afternoon and grab a bite at either Pamilla or Tower 12. It is Valentine's Day so booking a fancy restaurant is out of the question. $$$!
