kate59 Posted November 15, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Just curious for those who recently cruised on the Majestic - did they have theme nights, if so what were the themes? We cruise in 9 days yet haven't been given any idea in our email updates. Thanks🤡 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailaway John Posted November 15, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Having recently been on the Majestic, we had no theme nights that I can remember and we were looking out for them. Some special nights on top deck but actually there style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate59 Posted November 15, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Thanks John. I expected with the new ship they might have done more with the theme nights but looks like they are becoming a thing of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSWP Posted November 16, 2018 #4 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Geez, what happened to the 'Western Nights' and 'Island Nights' on Princess ? We had them on Princess in Europe this year, Sapphire/Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted November 16, 2018 #5 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Mostly it is the production singers and dancers doing something in the atrium rather than passenger participation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadog & Sea Hag Posted November 16, 2018 #6 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Theme nights seem to be now resigned to P&O. IMHO a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kate59 Posted November 16, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Just another question for Sailaway John, can we still get holes punched in the cruise card on Majestic or do they provide the clear plastic folder to go on the lanyard.

Seadog & Sea Hag Posted November 16, 2018 #9 Share Posted November 16, 2018 They are RFID cards and they probably won’t punch a hole in them. You can if you know where to punch it without hitting the antenna in the card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest services were happy to do it for me last month (even though the check-in person had said it wasn't done any longer). Enjoy your cruise!

Rare MicCanberra Posted November 18, 2018 #11 Share Posted November 18, 2018 I bring my own holes and attach them as needed, the best thing s that they weigh nothing and take up no room. 😛 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy at passenger services said they don't punch them anymore as they wont work. Though we did see other passengers with punched cards that must have been working. Anyway the passenger services guy gave us a clear plastic sleeves to put our cards in. This worked quiet well when I realised that I did not have to take it out of the plastic to open the door. You just have to touch the card to the flat door unlock. The door always opened first try no need to have to reswipe your card like the old system. Just remember on the Majestic to take an extra card (any old credit card sized card will do) to use in the power slot. We left an old coffee card there and would pull it up slightly when we left the room to turn off all the lights. Worked really well. Enjoy your cruise. The Majestic is a wonderful ship especially Harmony, Alferdo's and Le'Mer. Karryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted November 20, 2018 #18 Share Posted November 20, 2018 (edited) Next Princess cruise I am taking my portable lightweight hole puncher. Will set up stand @ Crooners and charge the punters $5 to punch the hole in their cruise cards. Might be generous and give Elites 10% discount. Yall reckon I will do any business?🤣 Edited November 20, 2018 by NSWP 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted November 20, 2018 #19 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Don't think it would work as no one carries cash on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they are a different type of cruise card now and I do not think you would want to punch them. May damage the code. They are just a tap and enter card.

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted November 21, 2018 #21 Share Posted November 21, 2018 There were huge queues of people wanting their cruise cards punched on Majestic on Sunday and they were punching them. I had to go to Guest Services about missing dining reservations and I was horrified at the length of the queue but it moved very quickly since most people were there to get their cards punched.

LOL, I can imagine Uncle les having his own line, offering the punches for $5 but the holes for free. 😛 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate59 Posted December 8, 2018 Author #24 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Just off the Majestic so thought I should update this thread. Not actual theme nights but some got dressed in cowboy gear for the country dance in the Piazza on deck 5. Otherwise it was only the 2 formal nights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
