  1. Just went to the laundry room on Discovery. Mounted on the wall. Couldn’t get to the back and check the model.
  2. I just went to D315 and checked. The room next to it, outside sign says “crew only”. I opened the door and saw inside has 4 elevators. I asked a cabin steward passing by, he said those are elevators crews use to bring up and down passengers’ luggage on embarkation and disembarkation.
  3. The button is in the middle. I pressed once, TV turns on, pressed again, TV turns off. No press and hold.
  4. Thanks. Hopefully the TV will not be modified. We will be on Majestic in April for 27 days.
  5. Those info should be at the back of the TV. Discovery TV tightly mounted to the wall and can’t be moved.
  6. You were on Majestic and used the toggle switch? Recently? Thanks.
  7. I do plan to buy one of those LG remote when I get home for future cruises.
  8. On my 1st day, I already downloaded a few app and tried it. It kept saying the mobile phone and the TV has to use the same network to communicate. I don’t know what is the TV’s network. I tried with the free MNET Wi-Fi and also the paid Wi-Fi, and both didn’t work.
  9. Yes, it is a LG TV. I will be on the Discovery until 11/14. I was hoping someone might know a solution so I can do the HDMI connection now. I will check out the link for the remote after I get home from my current cruise, so will be available for future cruises. My next cruise will be 27 days on the Majestic Princess. Hopefully the TV on that ship has the toggle switch.
  10. It is a LG brand TV. Don’t see anything in front identifying the model. Maybe in the back of the TV might have model number, but I was not able to see the back.
  11. I am on Discovery now. We forwarded 1 hour at 2 a.m. of Nov.2. We are to backward 1 hour at 2 a.m. (Nov. 5). Estimated time of arrival in L.A. is 6:15 a.m. tomorrow (Nov. 5).
  12. Yes, that toggle switch on the bottom front of the TV is not obvious, but I was able to find it every time on other Princess ships and successfully did my HDMI connection. Currently, I am on Discovery, and that toggle switch is definitely not there!
  13. I am on Discovery right now, the last day of the 7 day cruise. I will stay on for the next 2 cruises (11/5-11/14). So far, the internet is okay, not super fast, but acceptable. I asked Passenger Service, and was told this cruise has about 3400 passengers. Also around 3400 passengers for the 11/5-11/10 cruise. I will wait until 11/9 to ask for the 11/10-11/14 cruise. I was told there will only be 149 passengers on this cruise that will be staying for the next cruise (11/5-11/10). So many people everywhere. Almost impossible to find tables in the morning for buffet breakfast. Even without reservations, never waited more than 5 minutes for a table for 2 people for lunch or dinner at the dining rooms.
  14. I am on Discovery right now. Today is the last day of the first cruise of my 3 b2b2b cruises. As suggested by CC posts, I called Room Service to let them know what items I want to exchange for my mini bar for my 2nd cruise. I read on CC posts that I can exchange for 8 bottles of 1.5 L water. I was just told by RS, the 1.5 L water is only for Club class cabins, I can only exchange for 20 bottles of the .5 L water. So, the Discovery mini-bar exchange option is not the same as what I read on other CC posts. 1. When booked solo, the mini-bar exchange will only get me 1 coffee package, not 2 as other CC posts stated. 2. Entire bar swap for water can only get 20 bottles of .5 L water, not 8 bottles of 1.5 L as other posts stated.
  15. I was not able to find the toggle switch on the Discovery TV. On other Princess ships that I sailed in the past, I had no problem finding that switch.
  16. I am on Discovery right now and was not successful using the HDMI. The navigation console at the middle bottom of the TV has been modified to only allow power on or off only. I had no problem in the past to use HDMI on other Royal class ships. I will be on the Discovery for another 10 days. So if anybody figures out a solution, please post. Thank you.
  17. In the past, my friend and I shared a cabin (both Elite). One Mini bar setup was always already in the cabin when we arrived, and I always called to switch to coffee package, and each of us was given a package. Current booking, I booked solo. Before I started my cruise, posts in CC told me if I exchange my mini-bar, I will get 2 packages of 15 coffee. I embarked Discovery Princess yesterday. Same contents of mini-bar set up was in my cabin. I called to exchange to coffee package, and was expecting two 15 coffee package. This morning I went to get my coffee, and I was told I will only get one 15 coffee package. I checked with Guest Service and Int'l cafe manager, and was told by both that one mini bar setup will only get one package if only 1 person in the cabin. Interestingly, when 2 of us, there were only 20 items, and can get two packages. Now by myself, still 20 items, but only 1 package.
  18. Look good. Can't wait to try it next April. Thanks.
  19. Majestic Noodle Bar only serves Ramen noodles or other noodles also? Soup noodles or pan-fried noodles? Made to order per our selection of items with our noodles? TIA
  20. We will be on the 10/29 sailing. The next time you go to Guest Service, if you don't mind, please kindly ask how many total passengers and how many Elite members will be on the 10/29 sailing. TIA!!
  21. After they gave you the refund, did they take away your 4-device plan for the rest of the cruise? In April, I did a b2b on Regal. I bought the 4-device plans for my Transatlantic from Ft. Lauderdale to Barcelona (14 days) and RT Barcelona (14 day. The internet was terrible. For the 1st 10 days, there was no internet at all, got a little bit better on day 11-14. For the 2nd 14 days, 50%+ of the time, there was no internet. Didn't have to complain, they automatically refund everyone who bought the packages and still allowed the usage (although it was almost useless).
