Health and Safety
During a pause in services in 2020, Princess Cruises refined the MedallionClass Experience to ensure the health and safety of guests and crew fleetwide. Pre-cruise, guests will be able to fill in health questionnaires, submit travel documents and arrange forms of payment seamlessly thanks to OceanReady. This service expedits check-in and creates an entirely touchless process.
Thanks to the touch-free technology, TrulyTouchless embarkation and disembarkation is a streamlined process, while onboard, guests can contact guest services via mobile chat, and order drinks and food to their location on the ship at any time. Safety information videos can also be watched anytime, anywhere, from in the comfort of your cabin to by the pool, and muster station check-in is a quick and contactless process done at your convenience on embarkation day. These efficient services mean minimal contact with staff and crowds, ensuring a Princess cruise is Covid-19 secure.
Dine My Way
Make meal times even more flexible during your Princess Cruises' voyage thanks to Dine My Way. From making reservations in the dining rooms and restaurants to choosing your preferred seating, indicating dietary requirements and adding family members and friends who will be eating with you, you'll be able to customise each meal time to make it perfect for you. What's more, if you don't feel like going out, Princess' OceanNow on demand menu is even bigger. and can now be ordered through the MedallionClass app, meaning that tasty dishes can be delivered to wherever you are on the ship.
Entertainment and reservations
