Hi

Th seem people who answer the phone are sales people who know nothing about how things work on board the ship!

Suites do not have a special number to call before your cruise

You will be able to take care of everything when you board the ship

You can easily get your mini bar switched out but not to wine

There's no wine in the mini bar

You can switch to more of what's there

The 360 is new since our last cruise so I don't I now about that

I do I now that you can call the dine line on board to get your first night free dinner in a specialty restaurant

We book the Crowne Grill

Viator is ax3rd party c seller

They don't do any tours themselves

It would not be a place I'd book b a European tour 

Noone tries to upset me because I tell the massage person I'm not buying anything right at t h e beginning

It sounds like this is your first massage?

They will give you a robe and you get undressed as much as makes you comfortable 

They do need to touch your body

Have you tried to pay on line?

I thought they always ask if you want to add gratuities 

Special area in the mdr

Extra service some special extra meal items

No waiting

Strange that you guys don't know  that the staff in the c reserve area also bring around a tray of p astries

That is not unique to suite breakfast

I have never ever had 15 drinks I n one day!!!

I can't imagine bringing boxes on board

I suppose there's someone who will measure for you

We sail often in suites on Princess

If we have the Princess Plus plan then we don't need to go to Sabatinis for mimosas b or specialty coffee

If we like our serving staff in the Reserve section then we just stick with them for breakfast

We keep the same table and staff so they get to know us quite well

I do prefer the French toast in Sabatinis but I never v think of non menu stuff to order so I don't go there e v ery morning 

Just as I mentioned 

The itinerary was changed without prior notice because of roadwork

Still we could have been informed 

The owner was supposed to drive us but another driver showed up who was not as well informed 

We had asked to go to one of the first nations cultural areas a d had not been told that there was no cultural info available there but was just a walk in the woods 

We also had expected to be able to shop for native craft items but found ourselves at a shop with tourist trap junk

I am sure you h ave other interests so will probably have a better experience 

We actually did not have e a good day with this company 

Make sure you have your exact itinerary written down and check the day before to make sure it is doable

We were never notified that the stops needed to be switched around

The Embera Village is NOT a tourist trap!!!

It is a living village where you can get to experience another way of life

I can't imagine what reviews you are reading that are negative!

It was the best cruise tour experience I have ever had!

I've had the same problem

I went out of the app and tried again on different days

It finally worked after a few tries

Weve had wonderful filet steaks and lamb chops in the Crown Grille as recently as this past,October

We've only eaten once in Sabstinis and hated it so haven't tried it again

Perhaps the new menu is better?

They just didn't know how to make Italian food!

Food is very subjective so only you can decide which menu you'd prefer and if you feel like trying it

Our last meal on the CG was in October

Still quite good then!!

Sorry the Crown Grill was not a good experience

Our filets and lamb chops there have always been fantastic!

Good luck getting the app to book at no charge!

Up until now I had no probs doing that but canNOT do it now for my paid in full May cruise!!!

You can make the res on board

You can make it in the apo and pay but get money back on board

There will NOT be an invite in your cabin telling you a time

If you have not been t o Barcelona there are many wonderful things to see in the city!!

You don't need a tour

Read on line about attractions and just go to them by taxi or the metro system

Yes,Platinum suites etc happy hour in Skywalkers

You use the app,on your phone to make all dinner reservations

Scroll down to Dine your way on the app

I don't know how many devices people bring but I just have my phone and a tablet

 don't have any probs using ship outlets to charge them

We don't bring magnets or hooks

Do think layers for clothing

You don't need dressy /fancy clothing

Think what you'd wear to a decent restaurant at home

We book midship cabins with other cabins above and below us

@Blondie

There is a roll call for your May 27 cruise

@FrankieJayIII

Shows are usually at 7:30 and 9:30

There is other entertainment besides the production shows

You can just have dinner before or after each night so no need to know exactly which night is a specific show

A. Try the Florida departure board

B taxi

C uber/lyft

D train

Noro virus is around now on land too!!

A nasty strain!!

Corned beef was substituted for more expensive bacon by early Irish immigrants to the USA

That's how the USA tradition got started
