I agree! Your reviews can never be too long! Pick up those discarded pages off the floor and share them! Even though we were on this cruise, I love perspectives from fellow passengers!

I always take a small travel fan without a problem. Don’t know why the size would matter.

We love sea days so 8 was not a problem. It was the 5 hours we lost in those 8 days! 🥱😩🥱😂 Yes, it was good that the propulsion problem didn’t add to our trip! Sounds like the problem has been fixed and all should be fine.

If each passenger booked with the Plus fare, each would have their own access. If they are all booked on the Standard fare, I believe it would be most economical to purchase a 4 device plan for one person that can be used by the 4 people.

I can’t remember which port that was either but we found it amusing too! I mentioned to a few officers that the port people need to do what my dad used to do. He hung a tennis ball on a piece of rope in the garage so my mom would know when to stop when pulling in. I suggested that might have worked in the port especially if they included a note like my dad did: “stop when the ball hits the windshield!” 🤣

Thanks for the fabulous trip report! I was so excited when I found out on the roll call that we would be sailing with you both! I’ve been eagerly awaiting this thread! We had a great time and, obviously you did too!

I agree completely! I couldn’t convince them with my logic 🥴

I realize Vines is a casual dining venue. I was giving our experience in a casual dining venue which was that we were not allowed to “share” and not each use up one of our casual dining allowances. Happy Sailing!

Sorry, I thought it was related to casual dining venues. ☺️

Just off the Sapphire on 5/7 and we had Plus. Wanted to just share a pizza at Alfredo’s like we’ve done before the “casual dining” designation and were told, “No.”. Although we were each eligible for 2 casual meals, after going twice and sharing just pizza, we had no more meals left. Crazy! So, if you sail with Plus, regardless of the length of the cruise, you get 2 casual meals and in our case, sharing used up 1 meal for each of us. On a 32-day cruise we used up 4 credits with 2 visits. We realize we could have each ordered the prix fixe meal and wasted 2 appetizers, 2 desserts, and one whole pizza each time but that made no sense. Bottom line - YMMV when wanting to share a meal.

I prefer paper in case I need proof.

Sounds great! Now we just need someone to confirm that it works!

We boarded the Sapphire in San Pedro on Friday. Fire doors ere closed but you could access the hallway through the “emergency” bypass. Didn’t matter though because our medallions would not open our cabin door for us to drop off our carry ons. Cabins were not ready until about 1:45.

Lucky you! 🤣

We are currently on the Sapphire. They have the yellow blocks of butter in the buffet but we have asked 3 different times in the dining room for real butter to replace the “puffs” and been told that is all they have. My husband is trying to devise a plan to bring his own from the buffet. Just kidding!! I try to give myself small dietary goals while cruising and avoid the rolls at dinner. Made it 28 days last cruise and hoping I can hang in there for this current 32-day! I agree this is a first world problem and just another Princess consistent inconsistency!

We are taking some inflatable pool noodles for the first time after suggestions on this board. While we won’t use them in the pool but for snorkeling, I can’t see a problem in the pool. The inflatable ones are easier to pack!

Queen! Growing up as a child with 7 siblings, I’ve never had my own bed. Being married over 52 years, hope I never do!

That was my first thought!

You are such a wealth of information! My husband just ordered this because, of course, he needs it!

Screenshots for our Sun cruises in March & September 2025.

We can do it!! This Live is awesome! We have 3 Sun cruises next year and your report has been so helpful. Even though there are things that make me go, hmmmmm, we will get onboard very informed! Thanks for spending your vacation keeping us along with you!

Yay! Coke Zero!

Looks like the Eatery buffet is closed between 2:30 - 5:00 p.m.?

Cabin 12623 is a regular mini suite described on deck plans as “sofa by entrance” Seems they alternate

Thanks for checking! Looks like my packing will include a decent mug 🥴
