Glad you are onboard, looking forward to more of your adventures.

so when you say that, your suite is barely big enough for two people are all three of you staying in one suite then?

No; “technically” Chuck is in my room (for the free Plus package) but he’s “actually” staying in the room with the Jolene.

Is Jolene also in a suite so you all can take advantage of suite dining venues?  You should ask your steward to convert your bed to a double/queen.

No; she’s got her own cabin…but she’ll suite dine with us 😄 (it was fine last time with a gal I met on the ship)

Really? I certainly hope not.

Yea; the gal I met on the last cruise dined both in Sabatini’s for breakfast and also reserve collection for dinner; with us. No problem at all. (I don’t think adding ONE person on a party or two or three, is any problem..it’s when ONE couple is in a suite and they bring on 4 other people.

just like the Platinum happy hour, or suite lounge happy hours..they don’t care if you bring a friend

So; we had to set our clocks forward an hour tonight, to match Norway. 
It’s 2230 right now then.

Were going to bed.

I guess I didn’t say, but dinner was at Crown grille, which was super elaborate compared to the crown grille on the Royal class boats! (IMHO)

We all got the filet for our main course. Quite tasty

Royal class suites are bigger but we have never had a problem with these.

Yeah..but this room cost $12,000 (if I’d of had to pay for it; I looked it up)

no disrespect…but you’d have to be out of your GOARD to pay that for this room!

On a funny side note; went to the men’s toilet in front of the theater..GOOD LORD! That’s literally the LARGEST toilet I’ve ever seen on a cruise ship! It had like five urinals and three stalls! It was bigger than staterooms! (Almost the size of my suite TBH!)

This ship is small, but the places are LARGE..with the Piazza being (sadly) smaller than the Royal class (which I knew going in)…we’ll see what the next 14 days brings on my feelings of this ship.

Goodnight to all the dirty hobo’s of the world

Yes, it is a problem. There are enough people trying to get something they didn't pay. I have seen people turned away for this very thing. You can certainly dine with her in the regular dining room. It is different than the PES lounge where quests are sometimes allowed.

Like I said, we had no problem with it.

It may have been fine last time because your room was technically booked for two, but it's not something we have ever been allowed to do.

 

Just be careful talking about it as Princess does read these board and I would hate for any crew member to get in trouble.

As I remember, dude dropped a boatload of funds in the casino, so they let him bring in a friend. He's not the typical guest trying to get something for nothing.

There are a lot of dudes who have dropped much over many years and they are not allowed to have special treatment that they haven't paid for. Nobody twisted his arm to blow a wad of money but the folks who operate the casino (not Princess) gave him a free cruise because they might have a fish on the line. In any case, he should abide by the same requirements as everyone else.

That's not how casinos work. They want their customers to be happy and satisfied with their voyage, and to sail again. VIP treatment.
