AF-1

When I cruised inner passage way from Seattle; I had imessage, wifi, facetime, and email all the time. Never really lost a signal. Who knows how things will work; but for my family of four who all had iphones; no one had issues

Hyatt Place has a nice breakfast which is included in the price. Like CruiserBruce mentioned, Embassy Suites is nice; located next to a publix grocery store for last minute shopping; but it's more expensive and the rooms are older.

I have not heard of this hotel. I have stayed at Marriott Hollywood beach and it was nice and great location

I assume since ruby was only doing a day stop; Princess has not yet booked with local companies for the second day excursions. Check back later when Princess can lock down those excursion.

I agree with you

thank you I have downloaded the form on my iphone. Cheers

thank you for this info

Looks like you had a great time on this ship. Thanks for posting your comments. cheers

what is arrivcan pass? Do they hand these out on the ship when you depart for Canada? Thanks

I plan on doing online testing in my hotel room in NY. I read the above post and as my ship departs NY it will dock in Canada twice; so I need to be tested.

Lovely review; it's always fun to take a vacation with the grandkids. They keep everyone on their toes. Cheers, enjoy the rest of your cruise.

go to the left side of dining room and there will be a sign saying "club class dining" there will also be a hostess there checking your name.

Here is the link to Canada's cruise line travel. My cruise starts in NY; I still have to take a covid test 2 days prior to my cruise. https://travel.gc.ca/travel-covid/travel-restrictions/cruise

Hey thanks for the clarification. Cheers

Thank you for your clarification. Cheers

Yea that article mentions cruises starting or ending in Canada. It does not mention a covid test for ships on shore excursions.

Where does it say stops in Canada? Voyages that include Canada:Please note that cruises that begin, end or visit Canada will require sailing guests ages 12 and above who are not Canadian citizens be fully vaccinated, unless they are granted a medical exemption. Find out if you can enter Canada at travel.gc.ca^. Note all Alaska voyages include Canadian ports. This is from Princess website; it says vacinnated it does not mention having to get a covid test to visit Canada.

I agree with you

sounds good. Hope they have fun

Thank you for sharing your trip with this group. Love your food pics and glad you enjoyed the Titanic Museum. It was a treat for us when we were there in July.

I would think the NY departs would start around 8am

good news. thanks for sharing

The app can be confusing. Too bad the app doesn't just have the arrival group boarding on the front page

From Princess website as of Sep 6; testing not required departing from US CruiseHealth™ - Vaccination & Testing Requirements by Region - Princess Cruises

I believe the test is required if you start or end your cruise in Canada. If you are doing roundtrip out of New York the test is no longer required.
