In the past links weren't used for shore excursions. You just made sure you all show up at the same time and received the same tour group identifying sticker. Since excursions are still being reserved through the Personalizer I hope that will continue to be the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF-1 Posted July 14, 2021 #1052 Share Posted July 14, 2021 DuncanBlizzard; you mentioned that you travel for work. Do you use a laptop when you travel? Do you own a laptop; if so, you can download the Medallion Class app to that. One main reason cruise lines don't want you to bring your own food onboard is because it has not been inspected. Let's say you bring a bunch of fruit onboard and it turns out there were fruit flies in it; this could cause a big problem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuncanBlizzard Posted July 14, 2021 #1055 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Yes, I can get in on my laptop. Most sections, though, point you to the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most sections, though, point you to the app. You can also download the app on a tablet - but it only works in portrait mode. As I have a keyboard connected to my tablet it in landscape mode 99.99% of the time. Not being able to use the app in landscape mode (where you could have it side-by-side with another app - say the source of some of the data to be entered in the app) seems pretty dumb. On the other hand - the Medallion App team probably have other priorities right now 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exception is embarkation day when a mid-ship DR is open and usually only repeat cruisers are aware of it. I mistyped. Sorry. DR is closed for lunch only on port days.

JF - retired RRT Posted July 14, 2021 #1062 Share Posted July 14, 2021 23 hours ago, DuncanBlizzard said:I have some significant dietary restrictions I have some significant dietary restrictions @DuncanBlizzard A couple of years ago we had a tablemate who have a really significant restriction. He'd had throat cancer and the surgery/radiation did a major job on his esophagus. He couldn't swallow "chunks". He sat in the MDR w/his DW and ate what he could, then returned to his cabin and was provided with blenderized food that he could swallow (think baby food consistency). Now that's a restriction... and Princess took care of it for him. They'll bend over backward for you. If you can't break through the log jam pre-cruise, just follow up with the appropriate dining staff once you're on the ship. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HleeCruiser Posted July 14, 2021 #1063 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Finally able to make dinner res. after updating the app. However there was no option to book Traditional Late dining in the Amalfi dining room with a table of 8. The only option available was a table for 2 in the Santorini Dining room. We did however have several time slots available. Sure hope by Dec 30 there will be Traditional Late dining available with other guests. That is one of the things we love about cruising. Anyone else have a different experience when booking their res for dinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chromebooks run ChromeOS not Android. But the later Chromebooks can run Android apps. I guess since Google owns them both they thought it was a good idea.

Our December reservations carried over from our original booking and are still there. 🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
