I board Saturday. I plan on introducing myself to the casino host and see if I can get any information on casino cruises. I used to get hearts offers all the time, even did a prestige cruise once, I'm gambling the same and nada. Luckily I got 3 booked when I had offers.

I've heard stories of people going to Guest Services in their PJ's and not leaving until something was done. I'm sorry you had such a bad experience.

First of all the heading should specify Alaska. I did a cruisetour to Machu Picchu and it ws 5 stars all the way. It is pricey and worth every penny.

Ok, I'll know in a week

awesome. Thanks

We cruise in a week and booked with the Plus package. I've decided to upgrade us to the Premium. I've already booked 2 specialty dining. Any idea if they'll refund the $ paid since it's before the cruise?

You should try Rudi's. My husband said the filet he had was better than anyone he's had at the CG.

no. the only people who can order from the MDR are full suites guests and even that must be done over the phone.

I think if you go through to the final page, it says 0. It did for me.

It is. My husband often orders 2. The joy of being 6' 7".

Have you spoken to the Maitre D or headwaiter?

when I was on the Discovery in January they did one and said they were trying it out. Must have been successful.

You'll love her. Her crew was ranked #1 for Princess ships. I was on her a year ago and there wasn't anything I disliked.

I cruised in both December and January and on both (FLL and LA), that once you got inside, they called Elite to board. Those lanes are for getting into the terminal.

I asked that at the excursion desk when I went down to get my tickets. They just said you don't need them. They weren't very friendly about it either.

last month, they just told us to go to the bus. It was weird. This was out of LA.

Yes for excursions, no for transfers

I sail in 15 days and mine shows nothing except the ports of call.

Just curious if the prices at Crooners have gone up. I saw the new martini prices on the Sun and more than 50% are now higher than the plus package covers. Trying to decide if I need to upgrade. Thanks

I am having a Sailing Through the Orchids which I first had at Crooners in January. Though it is extremely difficult to find Spiced Pear Liquor so I bought Pear Liquor and spiced it myself.

They changed the recipe for my Sailing Through the Orchids. In January on the Discovery it was made with spiced pear liquor. And they added $4 to the price.

I booked a guarantee balcony for a cruise this past January. 2 months before we sailed, they upgraded me to an Aft Premium Deluxe Balcony. I was so happy as I love looking out over the wake.

Normally, except for the first couple of cruises, you can't make reservations until the ship hits the water. I read this morning that reservations are open now through June sailings. I think because you can only use the new app on the Sun, that that is a factor. I think it's the app which Princess tends to make available before all the bugs are worked out.

Depending on the length of your cruise do all 3! You may or may not get invited to the Chef's table. I have a cruise next month and am booked for both the CG and Sabatini's...I love Sabatini's new menu, my husband loves a good filet.

True. Cusco is about double that but MP is only 9,000. (Copper Mountain range) Most of the rain was light but often...except for one day when the skies opened up. I have a very light weight rain jacket from Columbia that I ordered a size up so it fit over my hoodie. I also bought a pair of Goretex (waterproof) Saucony sneakers that have hiking boot like treads on the sole. They worked great. 1 big suitcase for the cruise and 1 smaller bag, duffle is fine, for the land tour.
