Just about the new Take five. Thanks. Princess recently sent out an email - presumably to all Captain's Circle members at least - about Take Five. They plan to feature jazz there and have that theme. The mailing mentioned featuring various jazz greats and styles during a cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules59 Posted August 6, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I know they where going to make a lot of changes to the Sky Princess and was wondering if all had been finalized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship sails in a little over two months!! It is almost finished its build!! I am not sure what you mean - other than "changes" or differences from it's predecessors. Those changes can be seen in the deck plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAS!!1414 Posted August 6, 2019 #15 Share Posted August 6, 2019 For the latest Sky Princess info, go to Google drydock schedule - click on Princess - then on Sky. Pictures are from August 3 and 5 -- Sea trials are scheduled for Aug 24. This a good site for all Princess drydock info. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're lowly Platinums and did get the Email, sent by Princess on July 28. I notice that the Email title actually carried our Princess booking reference for our upcoming trip on the Sky, so perhaps the Email advertising the new Jazz Bar (looks great BTW) was only sent to passengers who have bookings on her? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We (well just me now) are still Platinum and do not have a booking on SKY and I received the email. Interestingly, I received an email announcement the other day for the 2021 schedule and advising the "pre-public" sale dates for Elites. My wife is Elite, but I have one more cruise to get there. We have email promos turned off for her account as we don't need double of everything. Who knows what goes on? Maybe I got it since hers is turned off.

cruisingrob21 Posted August 8, 2019 #25 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Princess targets email/snail mail mailings based on passenger itinerary history, upcoming bookings (or lack of), casino history, and resident locations. IE if you have taken a last minute sailing to Alaska from Seattle, you will probably get more advertisements in subsequent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
