So what's wrong going down that trail instead of waiting 90+ minutes in line for the cable car?

One question about Santorini: If you book a Princess tour, do they also tender you down to the cable car / trail? There is no bus access down there. And also not up there (no roads). If a tour ends near the upper station, going the trail down seems not to be a problem. (of course, for older passengers, it is). Going the trail up I would hate. 🤣

Wow. 🥰

What I wanted to say is skipping Kotor or Santorini has nothing to do with the ships tender operations.

No. Just read:

No, they won't. You can be sure most of them don't even know of the schedule change. 😄 Maybe check the roll call from the Sun sailing that stopped in Bar already. Ask them.

You may be right. But didn't they tender in Mykonos? Not sure No tender operations yet you think? That would mean no general alarm evacuations as well? I don't think so.

I don't remember. Looking at the moment right now. Greek islands I think. Not Santorini tho.

Yes, it did several times as far as I know.

I have never seen that Princess updated the map image after an itinerary change.

No worries. I'm sure the shore excursion desk will have tours available for you. Website isn't that fast. Even the Princess app shows tours sometimes as sold out or doesn't even show them at all when on the ship, but at the shorex desk they still have it.

The Princess tour description (under excursion details) sais: "Drive from California Lighthouse to the beach" Travel time: 00:20 and "Drive from beach back to Cruise Ship" Travel time: 00:20 So it must be a west coast beach half way between the lighthouse in the north and the cruise pier. So my guess is Palm Beach (where Hyatt Regency, Marriott and Ritz are located).

Of course. They give you a door opener at the registration on deck 6. You can't get in without.

Well, after all it seems we will never see the Sun Princess in Kotor Bay. Yes, there are ship tours to Kotor from Bar. But it's a 1:30h drive each way to get to/from there by bus. It's 60 road km away. Princess tour description even sais it's 2 hours each way. https://www.princess.com/ports-excursions/bar-montenegro-excursions

A vintage photo from 2013: Lunch options from the IC on the Emerald. The greek salad and the shrimp salad.

Caught somewhere in time. I love this Maiden song. 😄

Yes, that's also my recognition.

Hey, that means you get a stamp!! That's rare these days. 😄

The Lakers barely made it into the Playoffs. Let's see. I must admit that I have never ever been in a MDR for lunch on Princess ships.

Steak Diane for me today, please. 😊 Good question with the screenshots. And the real menu in the evening was sometimes a bit different from what the app said.

How are you doing on the Majestic without Sanctuary so far? I bet you miss it a lot?

Yes. The Island once looked just like the Coral: Until 2015, when Princess added the 131 staterooms. 😞 That is correct. IC was added to the Coral any time before 2011.

You get the best quality if you make screenshots of the menus on the app. Example from the Royal:

The international date line is just ahead of you. Can you already see it? 😁

No, it doesn't. And it never had one. There is only a little tray at the Good Spirits a Sea Bar on Deck 5 where you can grab a small snack to eat. Really not comparable to the ICs on the other ships.
