@mevs904 Glad to hear you had the shareholders benefits OBC posted in your cruise personalizer. I agreed with you on the hacking that happened in many situation so we needed to be extra careful to disclose unnecessary personal info. Enjoy your upcoming cruise.

Guess what? I used the old way by emailing sbpcl@princesscruises.com on Friday morning to request the shareholders OBC, I didn't receive any auto reply acknowledging my Shareholders benefits request (old response) nor asking me to use stockperks app (new response). Thought my email request was ignored as no one use that email address anymore. To my surprise, I checked my Princess cruise personalizer on the same day at night, the Shareholders OBC was posted. @Teechur you can try and see.

@gam888 Just wonder if your OBC for shareholders issue has been resolved. We are Canadians, just trying to claim the shareholders benefits OBC for our upcoming Princess cruise. We used to email Princess cruise so not sure what's our next step. Appreciate if you can let us know where you email your request. Did you end up using Stockperks App to get it? Thanks

Not at terminal 2

@JGmf we walked off the ship with our own luggage this morning as our flight was 11:20am to Canada (international flight). Left ship at 7:20, 35-40 mins wait to go through immigration. Took taxi and arrived FLL airport at 8:20 am. Just give you some idea on the timing.

WOW! That's huge app! Yum 😋 What is this dish called?

I saw Enchanted Princess model in the gift shop few days ago. Yes, they're available

@LACruiser88 we tried The Catch by Rudi last night, the food was excellent, so delicious, love the presentations. We were so full at the end that we couldn't finish the desserts. Thanks for your recommendations. We'll probably go back again.

@Ombud glad to hear you did 5 miles. How long it took for you to walk to Livorno Central station from where the shuttle dropoff? Surprised it was a short walk 🤔. Our bus ride was about 10-15 mins.

NICE!!! How did you get extra dishes that were not on the menu? What's the tips? :) They sounded yummy 😋

@Toottoot22 I found this, I think this is the website for buses out from Livorno to different places (39 Euros to Florence), it has discount if you order online. You can check it out. https://www.sightseeing-experience.com/livorno/

What a fantastic itineraries! Madrid has so much to offer. Wishing you & Debbie a safe & wonderful trip! 😀🥰 We'll join you on the Transatlantic Cruise in Rome.

@chrisn-au thanks for your first hand confirmation for Canadians entering Egpyt by cruise ship. No need to go to Ottawa or mail passport for Egyptians VISA. Thank you 😘

As far as I know, it's for all passports (US, Aust, US, Cdn) on Celebrity Apex. That's how I interpreted the msg.

Above was posted in CC Celebrity Apex Sept 26th sailing. FYI

I followed Celebrity Apex Sept 26th 2023 Roll Call with stop in Alexandra, Egypt. One cruiser with the following comment "Just came from a meeting for the back to back who are already aboard and found out you do not need a visa for Egypt. A waste of $120.00. I thought there was gonna be a mutiny lol with the people in the meeting started questioning the information that was given. They will be collecting our passports the night before and Egyptian imagination will be coming on board the ship at 2am and will be stamping our passports with the visa. Supposedly you only need one when flying into Egypt not by ship. FYI" I also read this - Please READ Celebrity Posts Update section How does Egypt’s visa change impact cruises?

Thank you @travelordie my cruise is early 2024. I booked an authorized tour operator. If you find out more info when you are on your Oct cruise, please share. Thanks so much. Enjoy your upcoming cruise.

@travelordie great to hear Azamara got back to you. Just wonder if the shore excursion mentioned must be the cruise line excursion or it can be the shore excursion organized by Egyptian authorized tour operators? Wonder if you have any insights.

I'm cautious like you too. Did Celebrity offer this 72 hours transit visa to Canadians before this change in October? Thought Canadians still applied eVisa not 72 hours transit visa. I'm like you, not comfortable to mail my passport to Ottawa/Montreal. Also, It is more costly to get Visa plus registered mail. Our cruise is Feb 2024 as well. Let us know if you hear more on the upcoming cruises to Egypt in October. Thanks

I meant my cruise is in next year 2024 not 2014 , lol. Share your experience in PR cabin when you return. Thanks 😘

Thank you for your reply. Let me know how you like it after your cruise, mine is in 2014. Less than one month for you to cruise. Happy cruising!

@cricketts I came across with your posting on booking Island Princess PR718. Just wonder how did you like it? Interested to know the PR cabins

Thank you @SparklyPinkCruiser.

@SparklyPinkCruiser thank you for this helpful info. Much appreciated 😘

Just to let your guys know, we had $180 refundable OBC (prepaid by purchasing credit from CAD to USD online to spend on board) when we disembarked Island Princess cruise on June 28, 2023. Was told by customers service on board that it will be refunded by cheque in 4-8 weeks. Received a cheque in the mail on July 21, 2023. I was surprised to see how quickly it was processed and we live in Canada. So there's hope 🙂 Last time (before pandemic) we had refundable OBC, it took 2 months for the cheque to arrive. It is important to keep a copy of the on board statement as proof just in case the refund check not arrive. p.s. Customer service was able to refund cash if the refundable OBC is less than $50.
