Ombud

Umm. They have held the ship for several passengers arriving late due to flight issues. But in that you are due to arrive to SFO by 8 I think you're safe (says someone who flies to both Seattle & San Pedro on embarkation day as long as I land by 10).

I am also stuck eating early. I would prefer 6:30 or 7 but then I couldn't have an assigned table, or so I was told. So I settled on 6. Maybe thats why MissP22 has to eat at 5

I choose fast dining on the app but the server doesn't see that entry. Fortunately I have to pre-order they know I want my smoothy and main dish at the same time, tea as soon as I get to the table around 6, eat fast (from years in govt service), and am out by 7. Haven't had an issue at Alfredos / Gigis / O'Malleys But yeah, avoid Sabatinis

I have a question re: Brisbane if you got there, how? Specifically since the terminal is now on an out of the area site, was there an option to book transit at port or did you have to go with Princess?? Not an excursion, just getting to the city. Thank you ahead of time

Yeah, that was my mistake...I am on call this week for the hospital so answering everything...so I don't miss something important, but coming from a toll free number I should have known better 🙂 I have saved my CVP's number with extension under her name. So I answered when it said it was from "MM." I didn't expect a call so I just asked "what was wrong since we had just talked, was she able to get my transfer in." Politely asked him to lose my number. Not cool as I always answer her call if she's responding to an email I sent. I only get a call back if she wants clarification or theirs a problem. Otherwise it's an email

That must be new because I was walked to the front of the queue by staff last summer. Yes, others frowned at us but oh well!!

Chat would be useless. I've sat all the way from #32 to next and never gotten through. The few times ive gotten through the person was useless. I notice that you said you don't use CVP office but (if it was me) I'd still call that line to report a possible fraud.

Yes. Your TA, CVP, or 1800Princess can also do it for you if you want it all on 1 ticket. In the past I've bought as little as $10 obc when that's all I thought I'd need (had a lot of promotion obc) thru my CVP

Select Payments: And balance and crew appreciation: Optionally you could go to Onboard Services and buy $25 of Refundable OBC as you seem to be close to the target amount ($1200)

Free and changing mini bar is also free

If that's the case one could ostensibly get a prepaid Walgreens Visa card for $10 ($3.95 to activate & $6.05 balance), enter that for shoreside, & the 'real' Visa for onboard?

$15 each day for non-Elite passengers.

Do you remember where the shuttle dropped you off?? My primary sites will be: Shiroyama Park, Tenmonkan Square, and Terukuni Shrine. How did they identify you when you got back on?? $28 isn't that bad for a solo. Better than the taxi fares I saw online

Push harder. My CVP just did a lift & shift on everything including Shareholder OBC. I cannot imagine how CVPs can do it but TAs cannot

Sun Princess makes only 4 stops & 1 stop is here. I can't find anything to do. Suggestions?

OK. I'm too far out.

Even better:

I like the way you think!!

I love jigsaw puzzles!! I would've totally completed it for them or at least significantly changed it and invited others to do so as well If they don't want it touched, take it to their room

The new app doesn't have the QR code. Just green or blue. I've not been asked recently whether I was green or blue, just if I had my medallion

Yeah. No. Not. Ever. I don't give anyone access to my account. But that said, I redacted that stmt page, sent it in on app, had obc 3 days later.

I can't make dining reservations on Sun Princess (9/23/24 - 10/9/24). So frustrating. I also changed from Cove Balcony to Deck 10 forward. And marked no upgrade, of course. Deck 6 looks perfect if I've got kids with me, otherwise not so great. I'm not a magician fan so I'm wondering about the "new direction." I always skip the magic shows Really hope there's a LIVE FROM next month

My CVP is still in Seattle. I'm positive about that as a friend actually met up with her before a recent cruise. I've given up on chat. Great idea, lousy implementation.

Sorry. Thought you were in Canada 🇨🇦 so able to have it mailed to you. Agree that it is unfair for Europeans, Aussies, and Kiwis to have the with medallion / without medallion check in system

Odd. I got them on the Emerald 5/27-6/1-6/17 but then the Captain retired 6/17/23. Glad to hear that they relented on your voyage
