Still waiting on any sign of a refund on our April 20th cruise....as soon as they put out the notice they were cancelling I used the link to request a refund....I finally called last week & the CSR told me I should have my refund around May 10th...45 days from cancelling...we shall see...

Thanks for sharing....we are booked on Mariner for April 20th....not holding out a lot of hope we will be on board....but can dream...

We are booked on Mariner for April 20th....had been considering cancelling due to one of our cruisers having health issues that could possibly cause harm if she caught the virus....with 38 day's before we sail I will be keeping watch to see if the fpause is extended...and whether they offer refunds or just FCC...

Is that price for a refundable deposit?  If so & you are happy with the price then  say go for it...you can always change your mind before final payment & get a refund on your deposit....if it's non-refundable...then  No...I wouldn't put out that much money on a cruise I wasn't positive I was going to take...

Punches are valid providing your card meets the following conditions as mentioned under Princess Beverages Packages. https://www.princess.com/learn/cruise-gifts-celebrations/gifts-and-services/culinary-delights-wine/

• Coffee cards are valid until the expiration date printed on the card. If NO expiration date is printed on the card it is valid until August 31, 2019.
  

That totally bites....I have 10 punches left on my card & my next Princess Cruise isn't until Sept. 16, 2019

And, to save a few bucks, use LotsofHonor.com , which shares Park n Cruise facilities. You get the same parking lot, same efficient shuttles, but at a discount price.

And because they are now sharing a lot it's a mess! The last time I parked there the cars were parked 4 deep...and so close together that you could barely open your door...let alone wrestle out your luggage...they used to be my go to parking spot, but not anymore...much prefer parking at the Radisson...closer to port....paved lot with clearly marked normal parking spaces...

My last few cruises I've found the windjammer for dinner to be anything "BUT" relaxing...I even tried going at different times in the evening & it was always crowded...guess the word has gotten out that the food is as good or better than the MDR and everyone wants to eat there now...I'm going back to MTD even though it's not my fav

I mainly cruise Royal because of the number of ships & itineraries available to me here in Florida...I have sailed Princess & found them to be very good...and if they had more ships in more ports here I would probably sail them more as well...

Hi. Thank you for this thread. My family of four and my mom all reach Diamond on our Allure cruise next month (we are three days short of Diamond). Will the crystal block be sent to our home? I guess we are considered Emerald throughout our Allure cruise, correct?

 

Thank you.

You should receive your block on the cruise that you reach 140 points...it's one of the few perks that you actually receive on the cruise that it occurs...you will not advance to Diamond until after the end of the cruise....as was suggested in a prior post check with the loyalty ambassador early in the cruise to confirm you are on the list to receive a block....

I usually try to cruise the 1st part of Dec. every year....weather is generally nice...the ship is decorated for the holidays...and the prices are usually pretty good...no con's that I can think of off hand...enjoy!

Are these discounts per stateroom or per person? Just trying to compare what we get in Australia!!

Balcony Discounts..Per stateroom....onboard discounts per person

We will have a phone & tablet pc, but don't think Labadee or Falmouth would have free internet, I'm sure Cozumel would in town somewhere, but that is at the end of the cruise.

 

Thanks for you comments

Falmouth had Free internet at the port area when I was there in April...Labadee...no...

Add me to the Sea Day count....gives me time to pack & still have time to hang out at the pool or where ever...

Park Cafe is a great spot to catch a quick bite to eat...anytime of the day...I think it was my favorite spot on Oasis...always able to find a table either inside or out in the central park area...

Unless there is a problem & boarding is delayed you can usually expect boarding to start around 10:30- 11:00...they go in order of Suites & C&A level...so once they start it goes pretty fast....they don't stick to the "assigned" boarding time

I’ve always wondered this myself lol. So if you leave I would imagine you would have to get back in that long security line with everyone else.

Unless the OP is just getting off for pictures....they would not be leaving the secured area so no need to go back thru security

That link isn't working for me anymore....just takes me to my log in page on the new site...:(

It's still that way this morning. It will take my c and a number to give me pricing but when I go to complete the booking and add names etc it says my number is invalid. Won't take Dan's name and c and a number either. I know that I am entering the correct ones.

Still that way tonite too...I even copied my number right off my profile page & it still say's invalid..sure glad they don't run their ships like they do their web page!

Anyone know????

 

 

Remember reading only have them on 7nts & longer

 

Meet & Mingle Parties are 7 nt or longer....but every cruise I've been on regardless of length has had the top tier party...even the 3 night Bahamas cruises...

The web site is getting beyond annoying!! Yesterday I was pre-gold with no points...and anytime I would try to do a mock booking it would tell me my C&A # was invalid even after copying & pasting it FROM MY PROFILE!!! Today I am back to D+ and my points are right...but it still isn't recognize my C&A#....so much for wanting to price & book another cruise....:mad:

Most of the time, though not always the case for all I am sure, but has been for each time we have arrived...they are already boarding Oasis at 11 am. We check in at counter with no lines, and then walk right on. They are usually even calling all C&A levels by then.

That was my experience in April...got to the port about 11:15 and once off the shuttle never stopped moving...straight to the check in counter & on to the ship....since they've opened the new terminal there it really moves FAST!

Are you sure about the 3.5 hours of free drinks? My understand is that there is no Suite lounge on Majesty therefore no cocktail hour for Suite guests. I specifically asked RCCL about this before I purchased the Deluxe drink package and they said no?

The person you asked at RCCL has most likely never set foot on a ship...and has NO CLUE what is offered onboard...if you think you won't need it you can always cancel your drink package & get your money back...I was on Majesty in Dec. & they have a very nice set up for the evening cocktail hour as Bob said...

If you don't choose pre-paid at the time of booking online, there is no way to do it online later...just give them a call & they will be happy to help you add them...

There is no profile or preferences yet. It's still work in progress. You'll need to call about your preferences.

Thanks....I sail the end of this month so I want to make sure my preferences didn't get messed up with the website "improvement"....:)

Can someone tell me how to log into my Crown & Anchor account now? Since they changed the website I am not able to find where to check my profile & onboard preferences...
