  1. We won’t book any inside on a Pinnacle class ship. It was very small and only had one stool to sit on. A lot different from the older ships like Zaandam that have a regular chair and a small sofa.
  2. While looking at Navigator for the Main Dining room (Not Lido) menus for our upcoming transatlantic cruise, the ‘menu’ tab / link only shows a Brunch menu for both the Breakfast menu and for the Lunch menu. Anybody knows what’s up? Brunch menu shown is limited compared to the old breakfast and lunch menus.
  3. On my February, 2023 NewZealand cruise on the Noordam, the matre’d refused entry into dinner in the dining room to a man in shorts and request he go change into long pants. Don’t remember if it was a gala night or not. Other than long pants, anything else was accepted for dinner.
  4. I won $25 on-board credit in Premier Prizes. I did drink the better wines at dinner, but thought that if I wanted them I would only be charged a few dollars a glass extra over the Plus limit. Didn't sit in the Premier seating for the production show. Specialty restaurants wer nice, but two dinners worth about $75. I ate half of a premium desert during the whole cruise & that was too much. For me, Premium not worth it.
  5. This summer and we do have Princess transfers.
  6. I know, I know,to never fly in the day of the cruise departure; and I don’t think we ever have. However, with our mobility issues, the amount of luggage, and the hassle of getting to and fro from London Heathrow hotels (no dedicated hotel shuttles), we’re arriving morning of Island Princess Southampton departure. Booked a non-stop with 8am arrival, but have read all sorts of posts about delayed flights due to weather and cancelled flights due to mechanical issues. We have the Princess Platinum insurance and even bought the airline flight insurance. So, trying to be proactive and requesting advice and suggestions from others who missed their departure. We do not have EZ Air (booked with mileage). Was Princess Flight delay line available and did it help? Would the airline change our flight to get us to next port of call instead of Heathrow? Start praying for Friendly Skies? And advice appreciated. thanks
  7. If the shower size is a problem, don your Princess robe and go up to the Lotus Spa change rooms on Deck 15 (Sun deck). Change rooms have a steam room, sauna, and full size showers. No charge.
  8. I booked Premium Plus and on my booking it shows all the added benefits including the 2 dinners at a specialty restaurant. Went to the Medallion App and was I able to book regular dining reservations, but when I went to book the specialty dinners at Sabatini's or steak house it showed a credit card charge. Called customer service and they could see I had Premium Plus but said that specialty dinners had to be booked onboard. Comments? Experiences with this?
  9. We had non-refundable OBC from HAL as well as our gratuities pre-paid through an HAL promotion. We could not use the non-refundable OBC for extra / additional gratuities to our cabin stewards.
