I boarded in Seattle in June and it was a total mess. There was no Elite/Suite lines at all we spoke up and found a Princess re to let us bypass the line entirely but I think we were just lucky
Is this an Australian cruise. That would account for the difference. Or you got an offer in error tied to Australian cruises. The bars are not going to honor premier prices for plus plan holders
We also got the $15 for drinks on the Emerald and the Discovery this year. When I asked a bartender on the Emerald she said all Plus plans get up to $15 on drinks
Don’t trusts wordage on the app. Look at the website description of plus. It specifically says 15 alcohol drinks. The app has had that wordage for months
Having had Covid twice on. ships and having the bad fever for several days I still wonder if the person who infected me knew they were sick and just ignored it. My mother caught it when she was 97 from a person who ignored symptoms
Our last SF cruise the line just to get into the terminal was so long at noon that we went across the street to Fog City and had lunch then boarded later
They had a Vines but no food was available unless you walked over to the IC. I can’t believe they could actually put out a 3 course meal from that kitchen
I have been on over 50 Princess cruises and have never known Speciality restaurants to be fully booked. Unless you want to eat early you should have no problem. We often just walk in at 7:30 or 8:00 no problem. We usually prefer Sabatini’s
We were on theEmerald in March and unless they have brought something back the only casual dining would have been at the Salty Dog Gastropub which was not all that great
