Update, just called sailor services, in only 10 minutes I was able to book 2nd nights at each of 2 restaurants that the app wouldn't let me book.
UPDATE on the update, an hour later I looked at my booking and my 2 original reservations had disappeared !! Called sailor services again and this time was told that since we're on a New Years Eve cruise they wouldn't allow multiple reservations at the same venue,
SOLUTION : since we're sailing with friends we linked our bookings, then we each made 2 reservations for four on different nights. It worked.

It depends on the length of your cruise. On cruises of 5 days or less, you can only book one advance reservation on the app for each restaurant. On a 14 night cruise, you can book 3 reservations at each restaurant. In addition, you can walk up at any of the restaurants and they'll advise you of the likely wait time without a reservation. Most of the time, the wait is really long (not)....usually about 10 minutes.
what about on a 6 night cruise, we're booked on 6 night SL New years cruise, thanx, Mike in CT

??? 170 people have looked at this post, any service club members ? If so, maybe you didn't want to take a half hour away from the pool or bingo, but did you ever notice "service club get-together " on the daily schedule.??? Thanx, Mike in CT

Have any Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis, Exchange club members attended a "Service club at sea" get-together during a Virgin voyage ?? Thanx

Thinking of booking first Virgin cruise. Just had knee replacement, is Scarlett Lady easy to get around with a walker ? might even consider renting a 3wheel scooter for occasional use onboard. Thanx.

thanx for the info. we've never been to Hawaii or cruised the pacific. hopefully we'll have fairly calm seas. did you see any whales? did you see much ship traffic during the crossings ? Mike in CT

We're boarding Star on the 12th also. They might be scanning foreheads for temperatures , bring out health questionnaires and maybe travel history questionnaires. We might even see a separate check in line for people traveling with foreign passports.
We're bringing more sprays and wipes than usual, and packing an additional weeks worth of meds, , but looking forward to a great cruise. Aloha. Mike in CT

Has anyone scanned patters from this season's Star 15 day Hawaii trips that they might be willing to post and share. Boarding the Star on 2/12. Thanks.

starting to pack for next month's cruise, and found a brown Cafe Selects card with 6 punches left to use. Ship and trip date were never filled in. Any chance that the i can get 6 special coffees with it ? the card has no expiration date on it. thanx

You should be aware that the Arizona Memorial has been closed for over a year with no schedule to reopen. They may let you go by on a boat, but the landing dock is closed for reconstruction. The Missouri is open, as is the Arizona museum building. It’s an easy local bus ride there from Aloha Tower, but a long walk from the bus stop.
the Arizona memorial re-opened on september 1, 2019.. we've got tickets for next month.

Haven't had issues getting airline miles posted. When you check in for your flight be sure they have your frequent flyer info posted.
We booked our upcoming Hawaii cruise and ezair using future cruise credits,didn't have to pay any deposits, had AA seats booked 9 months befor flying, paid in full 91 days before and we each got $100 OBC. Can't beat that.

does anyone have a set of PATTERS that they might be willing to scan and post. taking this cruise in february. What was the weather and seas like during the crossings. thanx

Princess has had a standard $10 Mic charge in their venue M&G's for more than 10 years.
It is listed in their policies.
I have set up a lot and helped set up a lot more.
The $10 was never charged on any of them.
thanks for mentioning the mic, didn't know it was possible, i'll request one for our M&G on the Star next month. Did you request it once you were onboard, or in advance ?

flying into LAX next month for a princess Hawaii cruise, i'm trying to find info on "UBER-X" service which has curbside terminal pick-up, more expensive but probably worth it to make the trip to san pedro hotel easier.
-
thanx , i couldn't find the schedule. enjoy your trip, leave me a few bottles of bourbon .

Has anyone seen Tiki Dave & ELUA's 2020 cruising schedule? we're on Star 2/12, hoping that they will be also.

A favorite New Years Eve movie, "THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE" probably will NOT be on MUTS tonite. 😱

Would a $/day increase, $14/cabin make you cancel a one week cruise?? Would you want your family members do those jobs - long hours, long tours away from home, living in cramped quarters with little free time, to be able to send most of what you earn and receive in tips home to support a family that you don't get to see for months at a time ???
They are expected to do those jobs with a smile and cater to so many strangers every week, so that we all enjoy a week or more expecting to be pampered by all the crew, and then get stiffed !! Be happy that tgey sign on to serve us, pay the auto-tips and give them something more to show that you enjoyed your vacation and appreciated their service. Or go camping in a tent at a park and serve yourselves.

We're cruising out of LA in February. Booked flights using EZair in june, AA cancelled both of our non-stop flights in october, we weren't notified that we were re-booked. had to spend hours trying to get flights that worked for us. Looked at air prices two days ago, and discovered that our new return flight was cancelled . flight still appeared on our booking summary unchanged. Went on AA.com and checked our trip - there was a notice that a flight had changed- again no notice from princess or AA. Star Princess is due to dock at 6:15am, AA had rebooked us on a flight departing LAX at 6:00am. Play it safe, check on your flights occasionally.

I can't find on the Princess site whether EZcheck is available at LAX? has anyone been able to use it there? thanx
-
Curious, are all of the Hawaiian ports in the same time zone?? going on the Star from LA in february. thanx, Mike in CT

Besides usually saving money on the airfares, booking with EZair, if your cruise is booked using future cruise deposits, you book flights with assigned seats and don't pay any $$ until you make your final cruise payment.
Pre-cruise docs & luggage tags
in Virgin Voyages
Posted
How far before sail date does VV mail out doc, luggage tags, and wrist bands ? was told today by sailor services that we'd get it all at port check-in. ???
what size are VV luggage tags,? large like Princess, or small like Celebrity ? TIA, Mike in CT
