I just ordered mine through a Princess representative and they couldn’t take my PO Box address they wanted my physical address. I’m concerned because if it’s shipped through the US POSTAL service I usually get my mail at the PO BOX. Ours arrived through the US postal service last week.

I’ll keep looking. I know it’s there somewhere. Edited January 27 by DHP1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m Canadian, our cruises last year we had to pick up (Fort Lauderdale and Vancouver), I didn’t think it took that much longer. Now they will mail them to us Canadians, but we are booked on a Mediterranean cruise next year leaving from Civitavvecia, and the option is not there. Perhaps because it’s over a year away, I don’t know. The itinerary should not matter. We routinely get ours shipped to our home for Southampton departures. The ship to address just has to be either US or Canada. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted January 27 #30 Share Posted January 27 Plus package here, green lane and the only option is ship to port. Don’t know what’s up with up that, but not surprised. At all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeag Posted January 27 #31 Share Posted January 27 I have a plus package, you have to have all of your information entered including your picture (ocean ready), to get it shipped to your home 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLS716 Posted January 28 #32 Share Posted January 28 Looks like they're using a partner service (4PX Express) to USPS for final delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m concerned because if it’s shipped through the US POSTAL service I usually get my mail at the PO BOX. I have seen the package and it was placed in a small mailbox at our condo in FL. I have seen similar size P.O. boxes. I really don't see why it would be an issue since USPS is the carrier and not a courier service. But PCL policy may not support that. 8 hours ago, Bru92 said: Ours arrived through the US postal service last week. 8 hours ago, DHP1 said: I read somewhere on Princess website that they can’t ship to a PO Box address.

Yes, I think I have read the same, although with the new packaging and coming via USPS, it seems an outdated policy. I think the first set of Medallions I had shipped to our pre-cruise hotel in FLL (2019 at least) came via FedEx. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked again yesterday (based on what I read here) and it just states that the medallion order was already placed. So far, I can see nothing that contradicts what we saw weeks ago that states it would be shipped to the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW, I used a worldwide tracking consolidator called Parcelsapp.com to track my shipment starting two days after I received the Ocean Notifications Email from Princess on Jan 10. I was able to follow it every step of the way from China to Singapore then through Canadian Customs to a company in Mississauga called Citilogistics, who shipped it here to Montreal via Canada Post. The tracking number on the original notification automatically opened up a USPS website when I clicked it but never showed anything at all, no details found etc. The box arrived in a blue Princess Seawitch bubble envelope with no other external shipping labels at all save a Canada Post label. "Electronic information submitted by shipper" 12 Jan, delivered here on 22 Jan. Longest delays were when it bounced around Toronto for 8 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spedteach Posted January 28 #43 Share Posted January 28 Does anyone know what happens if you order a special one, like the art showing on it and you lose it, do they give that one on board or just the standard circle color? Also does it print your dates on it, or just name . How does that work if you do a Back to Back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that work if you do a Back to Back If you lose your medallion, yes they will replace it onboard with a new one and your name and cruise date is printed on it. I’m pretty sure it will just be your standard color but it never hurts to ask while you are getting your new one. It’s my understanding that the face of it is just a heavy sticker anyway. You keep the same medallion on a B2B. Sometimes, it loses power and you will need to get a new one but it’s rare for that to happen on a two week cruise .. maybe more like after a month.
