  1. https://sport24live.com/home check the @ sea for schedules
  2. I’m 47 so that doesn’t actually apply
  3. You can exchange for other beverages though…Soda, Water, Club Soda etc..
  4. This past week Princess had a disembarking category for those switching to the Emerald. I can’t say if it’s always the case but it was offered last week.
  5. Travel Hacking is huge with large followings and many younger people chasing Elite status with airlines and hotels. The benefits from these programs are a big time/expense saver which keeps people chasing it. Some of the benefits on Princess are worthwhile but not worth chasing it.
  6. If you arrive the day before you could stay near the airport and use the Princess transfer the next day. I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn that’s attached to the Staybridge Suites on Bath Road. (Approx 5 mins from airport) The rooms were good size, clean and the hotel has a restaurant. I just stood in the Taxi line to get a short ride to the hotel. The next day,I took an uber back to the airport and followed the directions Princess supplied, It was very easy and stress free. If you want to go into London you can take The Elizabeth line into town from the airport approx $15 per person and take the Victoria Coach Transfer that Princess Offers to Southampton
  7. I’m not the OP but I do like the idea that HAL has, Comp specialty dining (2 per cruise)
  8. Hotel loyalty levels are always growing and changing, Princess could do the same.
  9. I did use the Platinum/Elite lounge/cocktail hour this past cruise. If you don’t have a pkg they still have discounted drink specials. They are about 1/4 off the price. $9.44 with the grat. I ordered 2 drinks on a 14 day cruise 😄 I agree a new level wld be nice.
  10. I was on this cruise and the one prior. The Dec 16 cruise was extremely different than the week before. More Cabins with 3’s and 4’s Horrible weather keeping more people inside. Each week was its own experience and seemed like two very different cruises.
  11. I have had mine corrected, spent an hour on the phone for it to revert back 3 weeks later. It’s a losing battle for me.
  12. Normally the Princess transfer into London from Southampton is $64 person, (Dropped at Victoria Coach Station) When booked on its own. A hired car to the airport from London is between £60-£90 (pre booked) The Elizabeth Line is direct and approx £13 a person from Paddington Station Those prices should help decide if the pkg is a good value for you.
  13. Strange, they stopped with the OBC and normally the discount is automatic
  14. Ask your room steward if you don’t see the card, I have a new card left daily.
  15. They are in the Pastry section in the Marketplace Cafe. The IC does have free smoothies during breakfast- Strawberry, Green Juice and Banana, they are small but you could order 2. *these are in at the pastry counter
  16. Dropped off a magazine in the Library area on the Sky this morning and there are about 100 book's. Not awful for a ship w/o a library
  17. The Sky has a few shelves in the Internet Cafe area. It’s donation only but right now there are at least 30 books. There is also a scheduled book exchange in the patter
  18. Breakfast ordered on the hanging door card is still $0 charge.
  19. I just did this las week. My app always lists me as blue but as soon as I step on the ship it changes to black. I purchased discounted wifi through the App with the P/E discount applied once I stepped on the ship. I didn’t need to talk to anyone or wait in line, I just purchased in App.
  20. No, the Sky was fully empty by 9:15A. On a B2B but we aren’t leaving anytime soon, I’m good…use to FL weather
  21. Stuck in port till @ least 6pm tonight so the Dec 16 cruise on the Sky is about to get very interesting.
  22. Anyone traveling tmrw keep an eye on this pressure system and your flights. For those driving to or from the ship, drive safe and give yourself extra time as this moves across the state
  23. If you buy on board you can use OBC
