OMG! I am a travel agent so contacted Princess and was told a self administered test is fine for the 3/17/23 28-day Tahiti cruise. I don’t know if I believe the gal I was chatting with! I think I will wait for a few weeks and ask again. Princess makes this so confusing! I told the gal about the contradictory info so maybe she will tell someone to fix it.

I used the cruisehealth tool for our sailing. It clearly states in the first sentence for testing requirements that the test must be medically observed. The second bullet is confusing because it mentions self-administered testing. Personally I am not taking a chance and plan to take a medically observed test. The last thing I want is to be denied boarding because it wasn’t medically supervised.

I am on the same cruise as the OP. Our tests must be “medically observed”. No “do it on your own” testing.

So glad I missed this. Her voice was terrible.

OMG! She sat next to me in the Elton John tribute show. She sang loudly and out of key! It was rude and very disruptive!

I know to check it and it is not there.

None of us received a survey either! 😡

Interesting that the OP has disappeared!

Thanks Barb!

Thanks! Hope you stay safe on your cruise.

Thank you! I think it is smart to test. Fingers crossed you are OK!

Thank you! Just got my Paxlovid. Symptoms are like a sinus infection so mild. Same with my sister. My nephew has no symptoms.

Hi everyone. I am back home from the wonderful cruise! BUT 3 of the 5 of us tested positive for Covid once we got home. I didn’t sleep well on Thursday night and attributed not feeling great yesterday to a lack of sleep. I was so exhausted on Friday night that I went to bed at 8:15. So I decided once I got home I better test myself. Lo and behold; positive. Luckily our symptoms are mild; headaches, bit of coughing and tired. I wanted to warn everyone because we definitely contracted it on the ship.

I am a huge fan of Pipi’s in Puerto Vallarta!

I am on this cruise too with my sister, BIL, niece and nephew. We are in one of the Sky Suites!! We lost both our parents over the last two years and we are celebrating their lives and all they did for us. So I decided to book the Sky Suite. We are also celebrating my niece’s college graduation.

I never book cabins above or under these types of open spaces. My guess is you will hear noise from Crown Grill. I doubt it would be a problem in the morning but it could be noisy in afternoon and evening. Personally I wouldn’t risk it unless you are heavy sleepers.

It is a single 28 day cruise round trip out of Los Angeles (San Pedro).

That’s great news! Yes my nephew will enjoy it. He is very mature and loves new adventures. Geography and history are his passions. He also enjoys learning about other cultures and trying different foods.

Thank you. I think we will skip it! It will cost another $750 for the 5 of us to go. We paid enough for this cruise.

Questions about the 360 Experience. Is it age restricted? My nephew is 16 years old. I am in Sky Suite for the NYE cruise with my sister and her family. I am reading that there may be a $150pp charge? Is that true for the folks in the Sky Suites? Thanks!

Thank you! Looks like deck 2 is off limits for me!

I posted this in cabin selections but didn’t get a response…..…..hoping someone on the HA boards can help. I noticed that the cabins on deck 2 are under the promenade deck. Are these cabins noisy? I am an extremely light sleeper and want to make sure there won’t be too much noise from people walking on promenade.
