Discuss Implementation of Smoking Policy

Was on the Island Princess for 14 day cruise rt rome. I do not smoke and hate smokey areas. I had no "smoke" problems anywhere on ship, even in the casino. -
Passport Expiration Date Not 6 months from cruise boarding date
indexcards replied to indexcards's topic in Princess Cruises
Let me wrap up this discussion with what I learned from this exprience. 1. Do not take any advise from Princess reps on telephone. 2. Read all fine print sent out by Princess. IE get it in writing. 3. Renew your passport whenever you book a cruise if it is going to expire in less then 6 months after such tour.. Then have fun cruising, and thanks again to all- 104 replies

Passport Expiration Date Not 6 months from cruise boarding date

Victory Victory...Made appointment Saturday, photos taken Sunday. Visited Passport office to apply this morning. In and out in 20 minutes for both of us. Was told to go to lunch or shopping and come back at 2:00. Did so and passports ready and waiting for us thanks to the courtesy and efficiency of the staff at the Passport office in Portsmouth NH. Now I just have to make the changes in the Princess AP to reflect our new status. Again thanks to all who chimed in on this problem which I caused by not reading the full info under Passport requirements.. I assumed valid was valid, not so for some destinations. It was possible to purchase with credit or debit card which may be a new thing because it was stated in a post on this subject that cash or check was needed.- 104 replies

Passport Expiration Date Not 6 months from cruise boarding date

When I contacted Princess, one rep told me no problem, and was going to send me an email to confirm this, It never came so I called again and this rep told me to bring birth certificate for boarding. It is all so confusing, my exp. date was entered on my ap when I reserved cruise' I never had a reason to worry until I got the booking confirmation yesterday that mentioned the 6 month requirement. How do I get a straight answer from princess. -

It"s the 15 day solar eclipse sailing. Mexico Costa Rica Panama Canal Columbia and Grand Cayman. Done these excursions on previous cruises and wasn.t even planning on getting off ship. Leaving from Los Angeles -
I have reservation for Sailing date of April 5th and passport with expiration date of July 14th. Princess is asking for passport to be valid for 6 months after sail date. I noticed too late to get passport renewal. I have been told to bring original birth certificate with me. Has anyone had this happen to them, or know how this will be handled when we come with green lane clearance but this problem with passport. Hope someone can give me some reassurance that all will be well. Thank you.

Does the credit go to the room or to the individual cruiser?

Has anyone else received a call , supposedly from Princess, offering an "opportunity" to purchase for $7,500.00 a listing of future cruise and or hotel stay benefits. I couldn't see any advantage to the offering even if it was from Princess.

for our 50th anniversary we went on a Tauck tour of Alaska which included 7 days land and 7 day Princess cruise from Whittier to Vancouver. It was not cheap but it included 1 night in Anchorage at capt Cook and two night each in 3 Princess lodges. All meals and tours were included as well as very nice cocktail parties. The Tauck tour leader came on cruise also and sponsored some special meals and gatherings on board. Each day on ship the excursions were also included for the ports. Having everything taken care of for all lodging, transfers and excursions was wonderful. There was even a plane ride over Denali mountain and we actually had one of the days on which it was not covered by clouds.
