You really think that Elon Musk gives them the Starlink WiFi for nothing ? He didn’t get to bring a billionaire that way

How many teens will likely be on Island Princess 6/24/25?

This will make me sound very old but I do not remember being asked for vacation input when I was a teen. We were just thankful to have a vacation -
Emerald Princess embarkation day lunch options
memoak replied to clm101798's topic in Princess Cruises
The last 3 cruises I have been on Reserve has been in Da Vinci but regular lunch was in.Botticellis -
Also no line outside of Crown Grille for an hour. I actually prefer it now. There was never that much ambiance as many people as they would crowd in there
-
Since you are in a Royal class ship you will have a concierge lounge and can get help with reservations Don’t forget to also get your free embarkation night specialty dinner that does not count towards your 2 dinners Those 3 plus the 360 won’t leave you much time to enjoy the Reserve dining room unless this is a longer cruise
-
It would be $120 per day since the first two must take it. Pretty hard to justify without alcohol unless you are going to drink specialty coffees, sodas or mocktails a lot.
-
Please remember that it is only priority tendering to the port not back to the ship. See way too many people in port trying to cut the tender line waving a black cruise card or medallion

Emerald Princess embarkation day lunch options

There are no boarding times anymore and when they had them they were never really enforced -
Pub lunch is now done in the MDR. No charge

Eat lunch prior to sailing on land and then board around 2:00 and avoid the crowds -
You cannot get a plus or premier package it must be taken for at least the first 2 in a cabin. If you don’t drink I would just get the standalone 4device internet and pay tips

The only difference between elite and suite laundry is that suite laundry has priority and comes back faster. Most times in a suite if we put the laundry out mid to late morning it is back the next afternoon or evening. Elite depends on how many elites are on your cruise

Like the aft Vista suites but love the aft Penthouse suites
-
You know that Elon Musk is charging big time for the WiFi. I drink a minimum of 70 drinks per week and my wife as well Those who don’t want packages can watch me enjoy myself especially the ones who ask if I have extra drinks left over around 1 am
-
If I am paying for Reserve dining and full suite breakfast I am using it. Why would you give up rates entrees , no waits, better service ? What next are you going to put their laundry with yours to get it free and fast ?
-
And I have never needed the humidifier portion.

Not as many kids as other lines but when school is out there will be more than you find at other times -
My reference was to Vines where on both the Crown and Ruby we could share meals
-
Yes Alfredo’s is a casual dining ensue and has been for awhile. I think people got tired with the 1and 2hour waits to be seated and people ordering multiple pies and leaving many uneaten
-
So one couple pays for and gets suites perks and the others do without ? Guess the will never dine together
-
But even with Reserve class on port days there is no dining room lunch.
-
So true. It’s like asking can’t you get along without electricity or cars. I guess people got along without them at some point but who would want to ?
-
It has been on my nightstand at home for over 20 years never had an issue
-
But you can share one meal between multiple people. Plenty of food for 2 or 3 on most ships
