Have been with Princess since 2001 and have never seen a tray in any buffet area.
I have always ordered room service on the first day and kept the tray for the remainder of the cruise. In fact, my wife loves tea in the room so I always order a pot with that first order and keep the pot so that I can get her hot water and tea throughout the cruise.

Make sure you check out your casino accounts, they will not transfer over after first cruise, unless this has changed.

They are staying in North Ft. Lauderdale on the strip (Highway A1A) just north of Port Everglade. It will take much longer to get to the hotel if flying into Miami then to get to the Port.
If at all possible, try to find a flight into Ft. Lauderdale airport and you will be 20 minutes from the hotel and then the next day 20 minutes from Port Everglades.

They will not hold Formal Dinners on the last night before the end of a cruise because they know that you are suppose to have your luggage packed and in the hall before dinner.

It could be, and this is only a guess, that when the steward brought the distilled water to the room for her to use with the machine, she told him she did not need it and he could take it back. He then would have reported it to his supervisor when he returned the distilled water.

I will buy when Carnival allows my wife to cruise again. She is on oxygen and travels with an oxygen concentrator which Carnival has now banned from any of their ships.
We have traveled to Florida to SeaWorld, Walt Disney World and Universal Studios this year with no problems, yet we cannot cruise.

My wife has cruised with an oxygen concentrator since 2018. But alas, we are now unable to cruise with Princess due to the fact they have decided not to allow individuals who use oxygen to cruise on their ships.
-
Check under the bed, some ships have plugs under there that we have used for my wife's oxygen concentrator.

If you have chips and cash them out, they will give you US dollars.
If as you say you will not need to use US dollars again, go to the quest services desk and use these dollars to pay down your on-board account.

I am like you and both of my knees have been replaced.
Anywhere I go I just tell them, before I walk through, that I have artificial knees and they have me walk through and then they take me aside and use the wand on me. No documentation is needed and if like me they can tell just by looking at the scars on your knees.
And this is everywhere, Cruise terminals; Amusement parks; Airports; Court Houses; Federal buildings, etc.

You will be dinning in the Estrella Dining Room on the port side of the ship. When you go to that dinning room, the regular patrons will enter through the left side of the entrance and your Club Class entrance is on the right side of the entrance. There will be a hostess there to direct you.

I believe a premium balcony is mostly just location, and possibly a slightly larger balcony.
If you are looking for a couch in a balcony room you need to look for a Deluxe Balcony.

With us, it's easy. We walk into the cabin and I ask my wife what side she wants and I get the other. No problem.

The first time there, we went on the Dunn's River Falls Tour and it was great. We would recommend it to everyone.
The second time there we took a taxi into the center of the city. They have a wonderful straw market with baskets and paints and such, an a very nice shopping area. They are very aggressive but if you just keep walking they will leave you alone. We ate lunch at one of the restaurants on the walk back to the ship and again they will try to stop you as you walk through town but if you just keep walking, they will leave you alone.

The CDC does not close the ports, but I believe they do control what ships may sail in US waters.

When the Annual Report is available (usually toward end of February or beginning of March), check the Table of Contents and there will be a section which will address the Shareholder Benefit, if it has been re-approved.

Call princess and tell the person that answers the phone that you want to have your military benefit added to your cruise. They will then put you on hold and call the military benefit office who will add it. I have to do this every time I book or re-book a cruise.

My wife has never had a problem using her scoter on a cruise ship in balcony cabins.
The biggest issue is not being able to traverse the hallways during the day while the stewards have their carts lining the hallways cleaning the rooms.

My problem is that I have tried for years to get them to list my military service on my profile page but can never get anyone to do it. Every time I book a cruise I have to call and ask to have it added and they put me on hold and call someone else and it gets added I do not know what the problem is with it not be entered on my profile page.
-
I got the wrist bands from Amazon and they worked great. My wife liked them too.
-
I know where it is supposed to be listed. My problem is for years I have been asking various offices including Jan Swartz’s, and nobody has been able to get it associated with my Captain Circle number and to show up in my personalizer. The office that handles the Military OBC has it on their file and I don’t have to resubmit the paperwork, I only need to ask the Customer Service Rep to contact them in order to get it added.

I have never been able to have my military OBC associated with my account. Each time I book a cruise I have to call and have them check with the right department and have the OBC added. This also happens when I re-book a cruise.

No one ever said that a 4 person room had to be for a family. I have seen 4 adults in a room and they end up (in their own way) sharing the expenses.

Anything I need to know on bringing a wheelchair?

My wife is partially disabled and we travel with a Drive Scooter (4 wheel) all the time. Have never had an ADA room on a cruise ship but have never had a problem with the scooter.
Our scooter is 19 1/2 inches in width and passes through any cabin door easily if you are careful. We have always had a balcony cabin and have never had a problem with the scooter being in the cabin with us.
You will have to fill out the Mobility Questionnaire and send it to accessoffice@princesscruises.com
who will then send you an email confirming your submission.
There may be an issue when you are boarding any tenders to get to a port if they are needed.
A folding wheel chair should not be a problem.
