But, if you lose it on the ship, why doesn't Guest Services just look up where it is???? Exactly, not only that, but your shipmate (if you have one) can go to any of the kiosks with theirs and locate it. Pretty dumb criminal to use something in the commission of a crime that can be tracked directly to you in real time. Plus you can't escape unless you want to jump overboard.

I have had no problems having other people's charges on my account on our last 4 cruises. The only thing I noticed was an extra $2 plus tip for a drink or 2 that I purchased. The drinks did not exceed the $12 (at the time). They took it right off. After we return to our cabin in the evening, its when I check our folios and find a convenient time to stop at guest services (when there is no line) and get it fixed.

Bartenders are asking for and keying in cabin numbers. The medallion system is a tablet that shows the faces and names of all the people in proximity to the bar. Most of the bartenders don't bother trying to scroll thru all the small pictures to find you during busy times. The old keycards had a "folio number". They used to record that. Now they use cabin number. I have to say that most of the bartenders use the medallion with the possible exception of the ones by the pools.

As long as it is accurate, I don't have a need for screen shots or a printed record. I do understand if you want to save the record a screen shot would be a very convenient way to do that. OR you can go to kiosk and print it out. It's usually right next to guest services. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was traveling solo and was switching out my wristband .. you know, as silly as I feel confessing to this, I left it in my cabin. They simply made me a new one. I knew where my original one was .. guess it just was easier than someone walking up to my room with me to let me in. I hated to call my room steward for my mistake as it was between the hours of 1:30 - 5:00 PM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I saw them around ship I would recognize them Clothing is of the least concern. When I told security and PSD about the problem they didn't think it necessary to even report it. Still to this day they don't require a pin number at any of the kiosks which could elevate any potential problem. Many people leave computers and a few valuables out in the open as they don't all fit in the safe. When is the last time you checked into a hotel & were issued a magnetic door care with your cabin number printed on it? Some day something will get stolen & Princess will be held responsible for not doing something to prevent it from occurring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really surprised how quickly a post/debit is added to your account. The only exception is laundry and crew appreciation. That is updated every night (usually after midnight). Wouldn’t it be loverly” if Princess would credit our shoreline accounts as quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that normally the drinks don't show on your folio. I'm guessing they would show if you went over your 15. I believe some folks have seen that when all the drinks got charged to their folio rather than being split between two accounts as they expected.
