Room key name

You should really read the cruise reviews by SailorJack then... He has an "unusual" style. :)

Now that is the understatement of the year. Sure love his reviews :)

Well I have been mistaken then! When I first cruised on Princess, I thought it was my "Wonderful Blue card to Paradise", but then I quickly found I was in error!

• The Blue Card is Excitement! (Remember when you had one?)
  

• Then Gold Card is for Thrills & Wonderment! (Wow, you second cruise!)
  

• The Purple Card is almost non-existent! (Didn't know there was one til I was one!)
  

• The Platinum is there but its just a step to get to Black! (We made it to Platinum, but no big deal!)
  

• Now we come to the Black Card. Must be something special because they get waved around!

But, if the good Lord is willing and the creek don't rise maybe one day we will have one (probably never), but we really don't care as we just love to cruise!

 

Seriously, the only thing that I have found my card good for it rack up charges on my account! :eek: We have always been so glad to cruise that we didn't give a Hoot as to what is was called or what color it was!

Guess we could just call it Bob Johnson's Hot Chocolate :)

This is getting pretty funny (although not as funny as the barbeque/fishing on balcony thread). But official name is actually Cruise Card (see cashless cruising on this FAQ page):

This is Princess, it should be called Merrill.

 

Or a Stubing

 

 

I still cruise for Warm Chocolate Melting Cake (with 2 sugar free ice creams), lobster, and Creme brulee!

That would be way too messy trying to get into the door lock. :D I guess one reason to care might be knowing the official name of the thing when a staff member asks for it. If the name is "Sea Pass," and someone doesn't know that, he might be confused when a waiter asks to see it.

 

I would imagine if you lose your cruise card, you can just refer to it as that or cabin card, and the Passenger Services desk will know what you're referring to.

:)Thanks to all who replied - was a long day and I really appreciated several good laughs. Smooth seas to all!

Funny posts. Nice to see so many laughs instead of insults and such. I remember cruising when we had actual "keys". When I dropped that down the elevator shaft, the guest relations desk was not so happy.
