Hi, Fellow Cruisers!! 

Are DVD Player's in the staterooms?  We have an INSIDE.

Are there HDMI hook-ups on the TV?

Thanx in advance! 

Thank you SO much for your help!! 

Have YOU accomplished this?  I'd like to hook-up my laptop.  Thanks in advanced for any help!! 

Thanks SO much for taking the time to post such a marvelous review w/ pics, Lynzchat.  We set sail on Regal tomorrow outta Brooklyn!!

Fake outrage! They are among the extra charge entrees from the Crown Grill available as an alternative in the MDR.  As has been stated the free lobster on formal night is still available. People need to check things out before ranting. The better way to post this would be to post such an inquiry with a title like "Is it True that Princess is Charging for Lobster in the MDR?" rather than screaming "Tacky".

Nope!!  Leaving my heading AS IS. 

Someone currently on the Regal said there was a charge for it in the MDR.

The dining room is only open for lunch on sea days, not port days.  It is the Concerto on deck 6, 12pm to 1:30pm.

Oh WoW,  Thanks SO much!! 

Anybody know? 

I went to the Princess website.  Here are the *new* Traditional Dining times: 

4:45
5:00
7:15

If so, what is the Traditional Dining time, please.  Thanks in advance!

A suggestion-

If you are carrying food from the buffet to your cabin,especially if you are taking an elevator, cover the food plate with another plate to protect the food from other people sneezing and/or coughing near you. 😳

Someone had a GREAT idea!  

Instead of wasting a plate, put one of those shower caps across the plate instead.  For my upcoming trip, I bought a pack of 15 clear shower caps @ the dollar store.

I'll be prepared with an HDMI cable or RJ45 next cruise.

floridalover, How are you going to 'prepare' w/ the RJ45 cable?  How would I hook that connection up? 😲 Any pics?

As a member of the Marconi wireless generation I will never understand HDMI or Cat 5 or RJ45

We just got off RP from the TA in September and some things have changed. TLDR; it's not going to work anymore.

 

They're being fed directly by IPTV/ethernet now so there is no default HDMI input to hijack. Since HDMI/input selection is disabled in the TV menus there's no way to select HDMI input either. Even if there was, the HDMI port is *really* difficult to access given the clearance between the wall and the TV. I've attached a photo, it looks like there's a lot more room than there is. I couldn't even slide my hand back there to touch the ports. Maybe an inch of clearance, if that.

 

That being said, we felt there was no need to plug anything in because there was SO much great content to choose from in the On Demand system and they continued to add to the selections throughout the trip. Lots of new stuff too - when we got back home I stopped by a Redbox to get a movie and we had already watched everything from their new releases screen on the ship. We brought tons of movies/shows for the 5 days of sea crossing and didn't watch one of them.

 

Thanks SO much for the update, aduck.  I'm hard-headed  , so I'm still gonna try it!  I even purchased a small tool from Home Depot to get behind the set...so I gotta use it!! 

PLEASE wish me luck trying to hook up my laptop next week.  I know it's gonna be nerve-wracking!!  

I'll keep you all posted.

YUP!!  There it is!

(You're good AlanF65!) 

Sometimes I don't want to be seen as 'actively online'.  How can we make ourselves 'invisible' again? 

Recently on the Regal for 13 days. Very inconsistent as to how watery the scrambled eggs were and I tend not to have the patience to have them cook me eggs or an omelette. They did have an egg casserole every day and that was usually my choice if I wanted eggs.

VERY upset to hear this news!! There goes the 3 years!!! :loudcry::loudcry::loudcry:

On the Regal Princess do they use real eggs for breakfast on the Lido Deck?

I LOVE EGGS. :hearteyes: I was on Regal in 2015. The WORST scrambled eggs I've ever had in my life!! I sampled them for a few days to make sure it wasn't just a fluke. Nope! It was real. :o

I hope things have changed. It's been 3 years.

Now the scrambled eggs on Carnival's Splendor....DELICIOUS!!

JMO ;p

I only turn it on while I'm out there fishing.

Enjoy!!
