If you are in a suite...turn it over to your steward upon embarkation or at the latest, 9 AM on the second day. You will get it back by the evening (same day service). And if not in a suite, you can pay extra for same day service (in by 9 AM). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elites in Minis will receive free pressing, but not same day. If you want the same day service, it will come with an added cost. Don't know how long turn around is for Elite services.

This was a free balcony with a cheap upgrade. The full suite upgrade was just too much for a 7 day cruise Edited April 16, 2022 by memoak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seeyouinthesun Posted April 18, 2022 #31 Share Posted April 18, 2022 I can understand changing what the suite perks are, but when you publish a statement on your website stating what they are, and then don’t deliver on that promise, that’s what’s disappointing. For me, clearly stating what to expect and then delivering on that promise it not too much to expect. For my next suite stay, I’ll know what to expect. As someone said, it’s still worth it for the price. I just wish the management took more care in settings expectations correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have only sailed as Elite one time so far. My wife sent out a dress for "cleaning" and it came back looking exactly the same as when she sent it out. She worked on it and got "most" of the stain out herself but the "cleaning" accomplished nothing at all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely lack in this area. To feel special I book a suite with Celebrity. THAT’S a special experience. I booked my first cruise with Celebrity for Mar 2023. I did book a suite. I will look forward to the comparison between the two lines and the suite differences Edited April 21, 2022 by AF-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rheathslc Posted April 23, 2022 #44 Share Posted April 23, 2022 The Full-Suite benefit PDF has undergone significant changes since I last looked at it only a few weeks ago (month or so at most) Some of the things I noticed that changed or are missing: No pillow menu mini-bar set up is limited to voyages of 6 days or more (I'm annoyed by this as we have two 5 day B2Bs booked in September and I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get the set up for those) I THINK the complimentary specialty dining on embarkation evening WAS on voyages 4 days or longer and now it's 6 days but I might be mistaken on this one no complimentary Platinum Studio sitting "Upgraded bathroom amenities" no longer specifically mentions eye mask and bath salts. There may be others. I saved the previous version on my work computer and will check it on Monday. New version is attached PrincessSuite_eFlyer.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cr8tiv1 Posted April 23, 2022 #45 Share Posted April 23, 2022 It would be very helpful if Princess would standardize suite benefits across the fleet. Do they not realize that passengers "discuss" and compare? As for the Suite Priority Tendering, I was told it was only available as long as tickets are required. After that, it is a free for all (I was told to go to the "end of the line" by security. Bathroom amenities seem to vary by ship. I only got ice once a day. But, my sheets were changed daily. I thought that was a waste of manpower so let my steward know that every third or fourth day would be fine. I did request turn down service in the evening but did not get any chocolates. Room Service was very accommodating to my mini-bar change out. After all, I did have 4 sets over 25 days. They even exchanged the exchanged items when I realized I had too much of something. Most of it was given away to my room steward or CC waiters since I had the beverage package. Regardless of the cutbacks, the staff makes up for any Princess short comings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
