Medallion delivered!

[sprint180]

So my medallion was delivered today.  That's not too amazing except a few weeks ago I signed up but they said they couldn't deliver to my location.  Well OK, then a week ago I was putting my daughters info in and they can deliver to her house ( 8 miles from my house in the country)  Woo Hooo, so I had them all sent to her house.  I got the email that they were delivered so I hurried to her house after work and nothing.  Checked with neighbors, searched the yard.  Nothing.  I go home and what is in my mailbox.  My name, my daughters address.  Strange they chose to deliver to an address that it was not addressed to and they couldn't deliver to.  Either way I'll take it.   What a fun package!!!

Thx for the picture. So our names will be on them and they will be in the color of our status!

Interesting pic. Quite recently people on CB said the actual Medallions were all the same and only the insert in the holder had the actual loyalty status color. I like the way yours look much better.

That's really good news. They look great - I love the packaging.

fyi - the inserts for all four are blue

[Denmal]

Interesting....does the color actually match the status...so Elite would be black ??

[Ombud]

Apparently so .... according to the pic: 1 elite, 2 gold, & 1 new to Princess. Waiting for OP to return/ confirm. I'd like a ruby or blue one instead of black 

[sprint180]

That is a blue one not black but I would assume the Elite would be black if that is the color for it.

not sure if you can see but there is a clear plastic sleeve for the card

[sprint180]

I like to use one of these instead of the neck lanyard and it does work with their case  mine just has the plastic snap though

I had assumed you would be issued them upon check in. Didn’t realize they’d be shipped to you in advance of the cruise. Wonder why?

 How soon before your cruise did it arrive?

[FLCruise7]

Just off the CB a couple of weeks ago -- all of the lanyards and holders were alike and the medallions match your status, so yes - Elite gets a black one.  They'll also issue a regular cruise card that goes in the sleeve.  The only time I used that was in a shop to get my discount.  The OM opened the door up until day 6 or so.  Then it stopped.  I did find that if I touched the OM to the screen by the door it would work.  So, I didn't have to get it replaced.  It still worked everywhere else.  We got ours at check-in.  We're back on the CB in March and I've received the notification to sign in so I can request home delivery if I'd like.

others in our roll call have already gotten them.  When I ordered they said they would be shipped around the 20th of January for our Feb 3rd departure.  It left Singapore on Monday and got to Nebraska today.

Did you have an option as to how you would get it? By that I wonder what they do if say you are cruising from a port overseas and plan to arrive far in advance if your embarkation?  Just thinking out loud a bit as we leave for two voyages next month with the second being almost a month after we leave home.  (Not an issue this time as our ships are equipped yet, just looking down the road)

From reports on CC it has gone both ways.

Yes - you can opt to have them mailed to you or tell them you'll pick them up at the port.

Thanks for posting this. Have a great time!!!

We're Platinum and our Medallions are blue. The insert in the holder is blue, too. So how will they tell us from the "blue-card" people?! (She said snarkily...)
