You’ll have the same debacle…Discovery is at B50 on 3/27, 4/3, 4/10; 4/17. Princess still hasn’t notified passengers on the inaugural cruise with the details…maybe they’re too busy with their VIP & TA plans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Yoda Posted March 22, 2022 #28 Share Posted March 22, 2022 1 hour ago, CarelessAndConfused said: Yes, I anticipated that I would be sailing out of the B50 or that area. But as I alluded to, I expect Princess to at least have improved their process for embarkation/debarkation the second go round. And just as important if not more so, I expect a fair amount of inaugural cruisers to chime in on the real life procedures so that I know better what to expect. Having proper expectations is at least half the battle in just about everything we do in life. Hopefully! The Royal inaugural, even out of 92, was a sh*t show.

Having proper expectations is at least half the battle in just about everything we do in life. I think that might be an unrealistic expectation with Princess. They are going to board at an inadequate pier for passengers and then knowing how Princess passengers always ignore the boarding groups, times and instructions they are given leads me to believe it will be a perfect storm for unforgettable chaos. I hope I am incorrect but I do not see any other way to avoid it unless Princess holds really firmly to their assigned boarding groups and times they have assigned through the Medallion App. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone from our roll call 4/17 posted an email from the Access Dept about boarding. Not sure how to link it, sorry. It's on the last page.

We were on this sailing, and boarding was fine. It was held up just a slight bit due to customs clearing the ship, as the previous voyage was a 60 day around the Cape.

Astro Flyer Posted March 23, 2022 #39 Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) Learned on our 3/27 roll call that some have received emailed notifications about the embarkation procedure at 50. We haven’t received ours yet but have a new notification at the bottom of our Travel Summary. No information about the disembarkation or in-transit procedures.
