  1. I uploaded my most recent statement and applied it to my next cruise.  I no longer seethe ability to upload a more recent statement in the future.  Does that mean that they will accept as proof a brokerage statement that is 6 months or a year old (or more)?  Or will the current uploaded statement disappear in 90 days or so and allow us the opportunity to  upload a more recent statement?

  2. We are booked on the Norwegian Epic cruise Departing Rome on November 8th and ending in Haifa on November 20th. With respect to cancellations, my prediction, for what it's worth, is that NCL will not give refunds, and instead will offer a credit of the full payment, applicable to a future cruise for some period of time such as the next 24 months.  This way they preserve their cashflow from the current cruise.

  3. I second Moodyb1's opinion that the packaging which contain the medallions is extremely wasteful.  But to me this brings up the whole issue of the value of the Medallion system. Other than, perhaps, the  ability to locate other members of my party on the ship more easily, I do not see the value of any of the other features.  I believe the money Princess is investing in the Medallion system would have been better spent on refurbishing some of the older ships.  In December I went through the Panama Canal on the Emerald Princess. To say that the ship is "tired" is an understatement. Coincidentally, the ship was in the middle of the conversion to the Medallion, so we had contractors working all over the ship.  So the cabin door opened by "tapping" the cruise card, instead of inserting it into a slot, but none of the other features were implemented.  I am probably going against the conventional wisdom on this board, but my decision on whether to select Princess or a competitor for a particular cruise, will not be swayed toward Princess because of the Medallion system.
