They are both after 2/20; so I would expect the wording to be the same on both, yet they are not. 75/85, that is even more confusing.

The difference in wording shows up if I look at the "Onboard Services" tab. When I look at the Travel Summery there is still a slight difference in wording. Travel Summery First Cruise: Plus drinks with service charge Second cruise: Plus Beverage Package I am just scratching my head as to why the same package would have different wording.

We have 2 cruises booked for next year and both have the Plus Package included (booked before the change). This is the old package, not the new one. When looking at my cruises I noticed that the beverage package was worded a little differently. First cruise: Plus Beverage Package Including Service Charges Second cruise: Plus Beverage Package - 50 Anyone else notice this? And does it mean that they are different. I have had the "Plus" package before, so know what was included (before the change and increase in price).

So many times I read on forums that on a closed loop such as a R/T out of Ft. Lauderdale one can use a government issued B/C. And many times it can be used, BUT, not always......sometimes on those itinerates a passport book is required. Just this December we did a R/T out of Ft Lauderdale on a Caribbean itinerary and a passport was required. It was stated very clearly in our documentation. Please read your official documentation; don't just depend on some strangers opinion.

I did some checking for that date and ship.....premium balcony, aft facing. On the 14 day they were all guarantee, however on the 7 day there were some cabins available on Baja deck. I have noticed that on the longer cruises (ones that can be a B2B) Princess only holds so many available on the 14 day cruise.......the rest are for the 7 day cruise. A person can do a B2B and still get the same cabin (if they are lucky).

Also talk to your steward, they will take your books and give them to other crewmembers that like to read.

Sometimes they do a special drink. This drink was "Pumpkin spice", it looked better that it tasted, not bad.....just OK.

Was just off the Ruby (plus package only).........and I wasn't charged extra for it. Maybe the server or bartender was just being nice to me and didn't charge me the difference.

I had the "Plus" package, and was not charged anything extra when I ordered the "expresso" martini. While I could be wrong, I think the "expresso" martini is in the $12 and under range.

I had the "plus" package to I only order things that were $12 or less........had plenty to choose from.

Then there is the 007 martini and the expresso martini.

Even though "Key Line" martini is no longer on the menu, I was able to order it. Below is a image that I think is of the "Baked Alaska" martini.....I know we ordered it at the same time we ordered a "Dirty Banana", if I remember correctly the martini was good.

Finally, Princess updated my flights in my personlizer........only took them 11 and a half weeks. Now my flights on the Princess site match the airline site. YEA

I have been through this several times on recent cruises and Princess has always sent me the amount that they have shown on the "referred to corporate finance" line of your folio. If you haven't received your $ in 6 to 8 weeks, then start your inquiries.........

The "referred to corporate finance" amount is the amount (in form of a check) that is going to be mailed back to you........hopefully it won't take more that 8 weeks to get to you. We just got off of our cruise and have over $300 coming to us......just in time for Christmas!

About 3 weeks ago I noticed changes to my flight numbers and flight times when I checked them on the airline web site. After making note of the changes, I went to the Princess site to see if they updated their information......and as of today they still haven't. In the past (at least for me) Princess has updated any changes to my flights in a timely manner; not so this time. Tis a good reminder to always check the airline web site.

We just did the San Francisco to Ft Lauderdale via the Panama Canal this last spring and while the Princess web site indicated that we would be tested some time during the cruise, that didn't happened. However, when we got to the port for Panama City, the Panama authorities wanted everyone to have a covid test. The cruise line got that number down to 80 people (this is what we were told). Anyway, because of this most people got to their excursions 2 hours late. So, from what we experienced, I am going to guess that it might be something that the Panama authorities want.

I cancelled a cruise and told Princess that I wanted the FCC'S from the cancelled cruise applied to a different cruise. The FCC's showed up in my Princess personlizer (I think that evening) quickly. However it took several phone calls by my TA to get things straightened out and FCC'S applied to the other cruise. Time wise......6 days. Personally, I think many of the Princess agents are new with not much experience.......so they are not of much help with something a little bit complicated.

I have been in D732 on the Emerald Princess and had no problems with noise from the lounge. However, I did read a post (somewhere on this forum) from someone who was on the Emerald deck in the same location and they complained about the noise. If you can, move up one deck to Dolphin deck and you should be far enough away to no be bothered by the noise from the lounge.

They are good!

Yes, you can use the phone in your cabin to set up a "wakeup" call. Unless you are in cabin C742 on the Caribbean Princess and that option didn't work. I would press "wakeup" call and would get a message stating that that menu didn't exist. After going to "Passenger Services" 3 times to see if they would send someone to fix the phone (they never did) I was given a "work around". Sooooooo if you find yourself in that situation here is the "work around". Dial 130 and then when prompted dial your time in that you want to be woke up.

You might have to resend your military information again. Last year there were some posts from veterans that they had to do this........I know we had to. I don't know if it was something with their system or if it was something they wanted you to do every 10 years. Thank you for your service!

Thanks........it took about 3 minutes but it did populate. At least now I can check out excursions.

I seem to be having problems using the Princess web site. And it is for all of my bookings. First it seems to be slow.......I could live with that if the area I wanted to look at eventfully showed up. Second, when I click on "excursions" all that comes up is a blank page. I have given up looking at the other sections. I have tried 2 different browsers. And yes, I have cleared my cache (several times). Any Ideas other than waiting and hopping that it corrects itself.

Usually different entertainment each night (performers). It is not like a back to back where things are repeated. When in port there are less options of things to do, so yes there are more things scheduled on "sea days".
