Princess News & General Princess Chatter / Move over offers
« on: February 08, 2024, 08:32:30 PM »
Reading 'elsewhere' about someone who received a 'move over' offer of cash, to change from their assigned cabin (a mini suite in this instance), to a another cabin. Has anyone else ever heard of or experienced something like this?

Not really sure what impact this will have. Maybe they consider activities on the 'island' as taxable.

True enough. Medallion loss on the ship is a real risk and potential liability. But it's likely here to stay.⁵

Definitely will be looking at newer ships for future sailings. Getting long in the tooth, so to speak with the Grand class. Nice, but time for a change I think.
An enhanced and expanded offering at the buffet will be one thing to look forward to.

Will hope and inquire as to if this is happening on this go around. Makes perfect sense for Princess and the re-passengers.

We don't have our vehicle at the port, but your planned restock idea is genius. Will remember this one! 👍

Sun Princess Chatter / Re: Princess Cruises Cancels Sun Princess' Inaugural Voyage
« on: January 27, 2024, 07:30:14 PM »
Both Mike and I experienced this first hand with the Ruby inaugural in 2008, but they advanced the sailing to one week earlier. Still was a good cruise, but yeah.. all of the thrill of being on an inaugural was dampened.

Princess News & General Princess Chatter / Re: Princess Cruises adds 65% to the price of its individual WiFi package
« on: January 27, 2024, 07:26:30 PM »"The price for a single-device WiFi now stands at $24.99 per day, a steep rise of around 65% from the previous price of $14.99 per person per day.
For a four-device package, the price increase is not that significant but still sits at around 12.5% at $44.99 per package, up from $39.99. This change is set to affect pre-cruise purchases made after January 22, 2024. From January 31, the onboard price of internet packages will also increase."

We have witnessed this first hand. Bought a 4 device package for R408, and again for R409 on the Ruby. Two different prices. I told my DW about your travel router idea, and I'm considering this for the future.

Recognition of the traffic flow problem at pier 21 is important. It makes the airport departure at FLL look good. Welcome news of the attention.

It's already rather expensive. Now at over $400 for a two week cruise, (with the 50 percent platinum/elite discount).

Simply put, this demonstrates what a casino-roll the bid for upgrade process is. The ongoing DIN of shuffling deck chairs would get annoying quickly. Definitely a case for cabin selection.
