Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm fairly new to Princess. This is my second Princess cruise, so I don't 100% know, but I know that we did our check-in in January.

I don't know really what's going on. Um, some people say that if you have the medallions shipped to the house, they're not going to have a medallion ready for you to pick up in port.

I have not experienced that it's difficult to make dining reservations. It's not been my experience.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Make dining reservations as early as possible, especially if you're particular about timing or location.
✓Plan for house and pet care with a schedule if you're going to be gone for an extended period.
