Would printing off our list of meds from “my chart” be good enough? I have meds from my regular doc, oncologist and cardiologist. Or do I need to have each doctors write a letter? Thanks

Thank you.

How do you reserve a spot?

Advice needed: Land Tour Australia
compozer replied to Worldtraveler 4727's topic in Princess Cruises
Princess Cruisers Fann, From our itinerary: Sydney Sightseeing tour From the white sands of Bondi Beach and Watson's Bay to Mrs. Macquarie's Chair, this tour will familiarize you with the sights and sounds of beautiful Sydney. View the legendary Opera House and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Tour duration is approximately 4 hours. Did this include a tour of the Opera House? Not sure what "view" means. Do they just drive past? We reserved our own tour but don't need to go twice. Thanks. -

I’m planning to leave suitcases at the hotel and not take them on the land portion. Do we have to get back to the hotel and pick them up ourselves or does the hotel deliver them to the ship for us? -
Delta Amex always gives you a free bag. Does not matter where you purchased the ticket

Advice needed: Land Tour Australia

Thanks again for taking the time to answer questions. 1. Did the Bob Woods group ever contact you prior to getting to Australia? 2. Did you order your medallion and did you receive it prior to leaving? When we did our Alaskan land/cruise last year, our's did not arrive before we left? Thanks -

Princess Land Tour Advice Needed Pls

Yes we know the large pieces go under the coach but on other land cruises, a few people had two small pieces instead of a large one. There was never not enough room underneath on any of our land tours in the past. How many people were on the coach with you? And I have seen people hold their carry ons in their lap. My husband does not have a purse and only has a small soft wheeled carryon. His meds, tablet, important papers, etc are in there and he wants them close to him so he is willing to hold it on his lap. -
Need Help with flights around the island on the land portion . We are on the land portion on their cruise/tour this October, flying from Sydney to Uluru, Darwin, and Cairns, most likely, according to Princess, on Qantas. From Princess website: Land Tours/Australia: For domestic Qantas flights within Australia, you are allowed to check one piece of luggage per person, not to exceed 50 lbs per bag. One piece of carry-on baggage is allowed, not to exceed 15 lbs. Hand-Carry Tote/Backpack • You'll want this bag with you every step of the way, so include only the essentials. • Items to pack in this bag include travel documents, photo ID, important medication, toiletries, camera, insect repellent, and any extra layers of clothing such as jackets or hats. • Your hand-carry tote bag should be a size that is comfortable to carry and should be able to be stowed under your seat. We recommend soft-sided tote bags or backpacks no larger than 17" x 14" x 4" with a zip enclosure. • Wheeled carry on cases that are used to carry-on luggage on airlines are too large and are not suitable as hand-carried luggage on motorcoaches in Australia. From our itinerary: LUGGAGE INFORMATION Luggage information For domestic flights within Australia, you are allowed to check one piece of luggage per person not to exceed 50 pounds per bag. One piece of carry-on luggage per person is allowed, not to exceed 15 pounds. If you have more than one checked bag, a $40 AUD excess baggage fee will be charged per additional piece of luggage for each domestic flight segment. If you have more than 50 pounds, a heavy charge of $30 AUD fee will be assessed. Please note: baggage fees are subject to change by the airlines. These prices are accurate as of 2015. For ease of travel, please pack your tour clothing separately from your cruise clothing. Storage of one bag of your cruise clothing per person will be available in Sydney. We are particularly interested in hearing from people who have done the land portion in Australia, most recently! Questions: Are wheeled carry on REALLY not allowed on the motor coaches? Were your carry ons weighed before the flights? It says that you are limited to one carry-on, per flight and one 50 pound bag in the belly. Are you also allowed a personal item like a purse? very frustrating!! No one from Bob Woods group has replied to us, And Princess reps are useless. I keep asking to talk to a supervisor but reps all say, “ I am very knowledgeable.” All they do is quote from my personalizer. They never transfer me to a rep. thanks for any help.

Glad it worked for you. Did contact both, said to contact customer service when we get on the ship. TA said other clients are having the same issue.

When you made your specialty dinner reservations, did you have to pay with a credit card? We are suppose to get two dinners included but we were not able to use the credits. Same thing happened with excursions - they charged our credit card rather than use OBC. We were told they will refund our money when we get on the ship and talk to customer service. Makes me think they want to have use our money for months. Thanks
-
Our problem is that when we purchased excursions, there was no option to use our OBC's so we had to put it on our charge card. I have a lot of OBC so I am hoping they might work with us and transfer the charge and take it out of our OBC's. Same with specialty dining. We are suppose to have 4 dinner credits but there was no way to apply them so we had to charge the dinners to our Credit card.

I have always just paid for the upgrades. I need to check out how many miles I have
-
I have done it but I had to wait until after final payment. Call your ta and maybe you can pay flights ahead of final payment.

We did our first Regent cruise last January and loved it. We have always booked full suites with Princess but have been disappointed since the perks are disappearing. We are also trying out several other lines. But we will book with Regent again. -
