Wehwalt Posted January 15, 2014 Author #101 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Something to watch out for, indeed! Never entered my mind! Nothing yet, I'll wait until tomorrow after I get back on board from Grand Turk to strongly object. I could always contest that part of the Amex charge. I'd like to see what Princess's response, if any, would be to Amex's inquiry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiffany's mom Posted January 17, 2014 #104 Share Posted January 17, 2014 We were on a X cruise in October. I was reading on the baloncy and keep hearing someone saying "hello". I finally got up and looked around and a couple below me was shouting hello. They said their baloncy was locked and they need help. I ask their cabin number and call the desk. Never hello again, so I quess they got back into the cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wehwalt Posted January 17, 2014 Author #107 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I got a very nice call from the Passenger Services Director, and it seems the internet charges have been refunded. And they are running the Ultimate Ship's Tour in about an hour. That's all I asked or hoped for, and I'm happy. Also taking great care to put some cloth inside the balcony door to block it! Thanks again to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruis247g Posted January 17, 2014 #110 Share Posted January 17, 2014 So glad that your internet minutes were restored and that you will be able to do the UST! I appreciate your attitude and the effort put forth by all the CC'rs. ....just another reason that I enjoy the CC community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SassyLeslie Posted January 18, 2014 #112 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Thank goodness for social media! Loved reading this thread and Wehwalt, you will never forget this cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wehwalt Posted January 18, 2014 Author #113 Share Posted January 18, 2014 They did make it seem more urgent than it actually was though Agreed. I was never in any danger or discomfort. Sooner or later I was going to get in, it was just a question of how. I did have a good time eyeing my balcony from the bridge wing on the UST. No one said anything. Likely the Commodore knew but was too much of a gentleman to mention it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retiring cajun Posted January 19, 2014 #114 Share Posted January 19, 2014 What kind of door is on this ship? Our patio doors on the royal were heavy and hard to lock. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wehwalt Posted January 19, 2014 Author #115 Share Posted January 19, 2014 What kind of door is on this ship? Our patio doors on the royal were heavy and hard to lock. I haven't been on the Royal but they seemed the standard sliding glass door, turn the handle to secure. They seem similar in all the Princess ships I've been on (six to date).

dbeckett Posted January 19, 2014 #116 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Happened to me once too on a repositioning through the Panama. As the weather was warm and lots of people were on their balconies it was easy to get someone's attention. Course it just happened that was a time the Stewart wasn't around (coffee break or getting supplies) so the front desk had to be called. He was most apologetic but it was a lesson learned for me - when the steward it is in the room and I'm on the balcony I always try the door before he leaves so I can get him before he goes out of the room. It is probably one of those thing enshrined when first starting at Princess - make sure the balcony door is closed and as you know it takes a while to break a habit.
