Glad you are making the most of the cruise after an awful embarkation. Yes perfectly - (it is a UK one and I use the European socket - it works exactly the same as at home) I have forgotten embarkation already and am trying to persuade DH that we need another cruise this year!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Eglesbrech Posted April 4, 2022 #79 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Bistro Sur La Mer amuse bouche - lovely tasty little mouthfuls (loved the goats cheese made to look like olives). starters - escargot in little crunchy balls, very pleasant / terrine pate lovely mains - after a false start (the scallops were like rubber bands and even the waitress mentioned it and offered a replacement) we both had a really excellent fillet mignonette in a lovely onion sauce. dessert - the floating island was amazing and very light / the chestnut dessert heavier but very tasty. Great service, good food, nice view from the window. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judithzuz Posted April 4, 2022 #82 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Hoping to hear from someone on board. Does Princess offer Medallion swag at a discount on board or at the end of a cruise? Just wondering if I can upgrade from my all too long Sports lanyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not on the Sky Princess but have been on two other Princess cruises since the beginning of the year. I can't see them discounting any swag at the end of a cruise since within hours those embarking on the next cruise will be customers willing to pay full price. I also experienced lack of inventory on my January cruise when I was looking for the silver bracelet (they only had it in one instead of 3 different sizes) that the staff said wasn't unusual.

Thanks for the quick response. I changed my mind as to what I wanted and the bracelet, which is what I would like, won't reach me in time before my next cruise. But yeah, I'll just check to see what they have on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the bracelet on the first evening of my second cruise. Every time I passed the kiosk the first afternoon there were multiple lines of people having issues with the medallion itself so I waited til after dinner. Waiting a few hours paid off. The entire transaction might have taken 2 minutes. I really like the bracelet and the only jewelry I ever wear is a watch and earrings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was Princess and the camel sat down, then you both had to sit down together ( and at the end get up together) and if one person was much heavier than the other they weighed the lighter side down with sandbags.

Rare db51 Posted April 4, 2022 Author #94 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Also on the subject of hot puddings, we not only had bread pudding for lunch, there was hot cobbler for dinner. Thank you Princess. My next wish is for the Sky Princess love boat horn to sound as we leave Funchal. It didn’t play as we left Gran Canaria nor Lanzarote and we are all ( in our party) addicted to the sound. Are there rules for when it does and doesn’t sound? Rough seas tonight for the first time.

aroussel2021 Posted April 5, 2022 #96 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Hi - we are booked on the next cruise - April 9th. I see posts above saying that you have been able to book speciality restaurants for this next cruise. How did you do this? I'm all set up on the Medallion app - 5 green ticks, main dining room booked. But it keeps saying I have to check back later for dining options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can retry in the next day or two. Or, just call the dine line in your cabin on the first day to book. We did that on day 1, on our recent 6 cruises.

I hope it works for you! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
