Thanks.  Mine only shows promotional credit when I look at the payment details ($100 each).  This is a casino cruise booked with my friend’s offer for a free balcony.  I may not get it for that reason.  

I received it on all my Casino cruises (Comped) for Princess, I have only been denied by Holland America. 

Just now, mollygirl said:

One more question- Where did it show up?  Did you also get an email confirming it?

I didn’t get an email but if you look under payments and scroll all the way down it would be listed in the last box marked Credits

Just now, mollygirl said:

How long after you submitted your request did the OBC show up? 

It ranged from a few hours to a day.

I would submit again if it's been longer than a day. 

The link is the old benefits.

What is the cost for internet?  The discount is half off, is that for all packages?

I can't even find it to add to my booked cruises.

It seems to have changed to 300 days sometime during the shutdown. I keep getting the 300 days message. I'm tracking prices by looking at air for previous departure dates.

I was doing that as well but the flight I was very interested in booking isn't being offered through EZ Air, I didn't realize they only offered up some flights and not all.

For RT flights timing is 330 days before the return flight and could vary depending on the airline's rules. If you call Princess from the east coast call exactly at 11am. They open 8am Pacific time.

Thank You.

I'm going to call since I I'm in the 330 window but it doesn't seem to be an option to book.  I'll be on hold when they open 🙂

Thank You!

I'm not sure why it's not showing then. 

EZ Air states 330 days before  departure. I must be missing something.

I'll put in a call to Princess and attempt to sort it out.

Hi All!

I received this message when trying to book flights.

Do you have to pay in full before you can book flights? I'm trying to figure out what this message could apply to

FLIGHTS CAN BE BOOKED AFTER YOU COMPLETE YOUR CRUISE BOOKING.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,

Jamie

thanks all...I'm going to wait until the supposed discount on excursions happens for elite members.  I'm hearing the end of July...Appreciate the input.  

Is this a thing? Who knew?! 
 I just booked a bunch but will cancel and rebook if a discount is offered

Since I started this thread I thought I would update it with my experience.

I have 3 casino cruises booked all are  comped cabins and one I upgraded.

I received shareholder OBC  for all 3.

It’s definitely worth the 3 minutes to submit (email) 

My OBC has just shown up on 3 bookings all were casino comped cabins and only 1 was upgraded.

It's always worth submitting every booking. 

I just  received a very reasonable quote from Blackberry Cars.

Pick up in Mayfair to LHR  

It’s worth reaching out for anyone who may be pricing out 2022 trips.

We are looking to book a 2022 cruise via our TA's website.  Based on this post, is it likely that after we book, or FCC will automatically be applied?  If our case, hoping that happens without having to request or book the cruise over the phone.

 

Thanks

From what the Princess rep told me it’s a strong possibility that it could work that way as well but I’m mot 100% certain. 

Woo Hoo! Just ordered mine as well.

Thanks for sharing!

Date of birth is one item on the line. Patient Number (medical record or IIS record number) is a second item on the line to fill in. It is a second item that is blank on our cards also.

Mine is blank as well now that i looked clearly. 

Bumping this up because it happened again and I’m currently on hold with Princess 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

SMH

Verdict the computer will do a sweep and apply the FCC to any open reservation. 

i have a casino booked cruise with an open balance (owed by the casino corp) that the computer will see as unpaid and continue to apply my FCC to every few weeks.

i was told to keep an eye on it and call back when it happens again and it will be removed.

The following identifiers for the proof of full vaccination should include your first and last name, a patient identifier such as date of birth, medical record ID, or government ID, type of vaccine (manufacturer), date of all doses administered, lot number, if available, and healthcare professional or clinic site name.

Our cards have CDC printed in the upper right hand corner. There is no medical record ID or patient number shown on the card, although there is a space for it. Since the vaccine was free to all there was no need for the clinic to have this information. Guess we could write it in. For the 1st dose they wrote in the name of the clinic site which can be kind of read if you know what you are looking for. The 2nd dose they wrote in 3 letters as an abbreviation for the clinic. 

You can just add your DOB for Medical Record

When the Golden first moved down to San Pedro and doing 3-4 days voyages, they couldn't give away the cabins.  The offer was:  Sail and your entire cruise fare will be applied to any cruise 7 days or longer.  You either gave them your money up front or later...didn't matter to me.  I did many...many...some b2bs in a Window Suite.  Paid for 18 days on the Coral (balcony) to LA/Alaska/Vancouver. Didn't hurt that I made Elite along the way.  

 

I'm on a 4 day to San Diego on the Grand.  So glad she will be homeported here this season.  She, too, is empty.

Same promotion was applied to Caribbean sailings as well. I booked a short sailing an applied the fare to a Trans Atlantic

I suspect an altered CDC card may be treated with suspicion.

Mine was already written on by 2 different people with different pen colors it’s a mess…they can’t be too picky. 

Request a late check out, most hotels are flexible even now.

A Basic Question

 

We have two year old iPhones and are good on basic apps and tasks, but given the challenges apparent younger computer whizzes are enduring, we're not prepared for such endless stress.

 

Is one able to try to enter all required info BEFORE final payment?

 

We're looking forward to our May cruise as much as anyone, but not so much that we're not prepared to simply 'run' before final payment.

 

Sure hope someone can offer a definitive answer,

 

Thanks techies,

 

Ruth

It’s based on your operating system, try to download the App from the store on your iPhone and it will let you know if it’s compatible with your operating system

and then of course we have the arrival time issue.....

 

What if I arrive at the terminal before my assigned time?
If you come to the terminal before your arrival time, you will be asked to wait away from the terminal until you are permitted to enter during your specified arrival time.

 

So I have to check out of my hotel at 11, won't have a car, will have my luggage, and if I don't end up with an early arrival time....where would I be 'hanging out'?

Ask for a late checkout 

You can also order them through Target.Com and receive 5% off if you use  your red card. Not a huge savings but I’m all for not overpaying or putting out more money than necessary  😁

I am not an Allstate member, but we do have AARP.

That is about a 10% discount.

Seems the Princess offer comes and goes, and it can be hard to find it available?

You don’t have to be an Allstate member you can set up an account snd earn points daily for logging in.

You receive points for setting up an account as well, even without being a member
