What time does Princess start their bus transfers from Anchorage at The Egan center to Whittier to the cruise port? Curious to know is how early the buses arrive at the port for boarding?

Ha!  I made the one time mistake of paying for it.

 

I learned last year on the Ruby Princess of the free offering. And it was so excited that I didn't have to pay for it. With patience comes a prize apparently. 🙂 So I take it as a yes, that the Caribbean Princess offers it in the main dining room?

Is the Ernesto Burger offered in the main dining room the last night on the Caribbean Princess. I know they offer it on the Ruby Princess and the Regal Princess one of the Ernesto burgers every night for no extra charge. Wonder if it is offered fleetwide?

The Wheelhouse Bar usually has single malt flights and special whiskeys, $$$, if that is what you mean. You can also check out Crooner's. As far as cocktails go they will basically mix any drink if they have the ingredients.

There is no bar named Good Spirits Bar.

Yes, that I already knew of. The good spirits bar is something new that just came about not long ago. They just added one on to Regal but it's not functioning as the good sports bar but it took over the spot of the international cafe bar.

Does the good spirits bar on board the Caribbean Princess offer specialty drinks that are not on any other bar menu? If so does anyone have a picture of the menu?

Great. Did they also upgrade to the larger TV's on the wall as well?

Does Caribbean Princess now have on demand TV's in the cabins? If yes, did they upgrade to the large TV's on the wall like on Regal a d Royal?

I edited my post to add that regular price seems to be $9.99 per day. I gage the price special by that.

 I called Princess directly. As u expected. It pays to get the unlimited first day onboard. It's 25% off the $9.99 a week so roughly $69.99 for elite passengers. Make it cheaper than the pre cruise price. Hooray!

If you have the chance to buy pre cruise for that price (7 day?) I would snap it up.

It seems to vary from cruise to cruise and when you get onboard you may not get that great price.

The Regal MedallionNet unlimited is awesome!!

Thanks. I've done the pre-purchase the last two visits on the revolt of The medallion it. And I wish I looked at the paper that was in my cabin stating some form of discount for elite passengers to purchase it on day one but I don't really recall the letter nor that I really studied it. Now I'm kicking myself.

Can someone please confirm what The medallion cost, if I purchase it onboard the ship on day 1. Trying to figure if it pays to pre-purchase it prior to the cruise which is $59.99 for the unlimited internet package. OR if it comes out cheaper to wait to purchase it once on board the ship day 1. I can't remember if there's 25% off for elite passengers on the first day to purchase. Making it cheaper than the $59.99.

Does the golden have on demand movies in the cabin?

What are the production shows that are available on the Golden Princess, in the theater performed by the princess dancers and singers?

Is there soft serve ice cream (swirls or scoops) anywhere to be found on the Golden Princess?

Is the GoPro Rentals available fleet wide? And if someone could kindly tell me how much a rental is for the day. Thanks.

When you get to your cabin, they have a little paper printed with your dinning info including your dinning room and table. You bring it the first night, and you're good to go.

Is or will the Medallion be fully operational in time for Alaskan season. I know it already has the Medallion net, just curious about the Medallion itself. It's fantastic on the Regal.

Absolutely, we do it all the time.

You just have to play the slot machine for a couple of minutes then cash out.

Thanks!!!! this makes me so happy that I can use that non-refundable to cash out instead of just buying something, just to to spend the money. Thanks a bunch!!!

Can you cash out non refundable obc in the casino? I know refundable you can, not sure about the other.

Effective on your next cruise.

They are both great. I've sailed with them frequently on Regal.

Can anyone please explain exactly what the "Medallion Access Pass" is. I have the screen that displays an "OceanReady Pass" on my android phone and it has instructions to "save a screenshot or print a copy". Are they talking about the QR code box on the screen? If so I do not understand why I would need to print or capture the image instead of just showing it at the port. I called the Princess help number but they were absolutely clueless.  

I have the Ocean Ready Pass on my phone. I screenshot the QR code, just so I can pull it easier through my camera roll. Just like airline QR codes / tickets via the app, they always suggest taking a screenshot of it, in case there is any issues you may have with cell reception / wifi of any form where you may not be able to open the app or load your booking ticket. That would be my guess.

As cool as the Ocean Medallion may be and no matter how easy it makes getting onto the ship, I doubt that the customs and immigration people when disembarking the ship back in the US will be very impressed by it.  You will need real entry documents (passport, etc.).  I have paper boarding passes, but I had printed them before I knew that our cruise was a medallion cruise.

Yes, you do have to show your passport to customs at disembarkation. I can speak for Port Everglades, its a pretty quick and painless process. You are no longer required to have a filled out declaration customs form which is nice. I had the medallion for my B2B on the Regal this past December (the debut for the ENTIRE ship v. just select cabins), But I'm happy this time around, as I had the medallion pre-shipped to my house, skipping the check in process for my 2 upcoming cruises in 2 weeks and in March,

How do U preorder?  Onboard Regal in 5 weeks. Boarding pass already printed> 

You need to download the "ocean ready" app. After you create an account, you can add your booking number. Then you can pre-order your medallion. I'm booked on several upcoming Regal cruises, so it's only allowing you to pre-order The Medallion for cruises coming up soon. The centers is coming up within 5 weeks you should have access to it. I've been receiving an email from Princess about ocean ready each time when my bookings is available on ocean ready.
