How to print your personal cruise calendar in the "new" cruise planner?


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone! I am trying to print my calendar for my upcoming cruise. In the "old" cruise planner, I could print my week on one page. This would list arrival/departure times for each port as well as start time for excursions and other items on my calendar. I would appreciate any tips on how to do this in the "new" cruise planner. I like to take this with me on the trip to help plan my show bookings and dinner reservations. Thanks!

Have yet to find a way to do this in the "new" planner. We have to put everything in the app now as soon as we get onboard. We have a list of possibilities when we get onboard but do the entry once we get there. Wish the app had audible reminders of our picks to let us know of upcoming events. Hear that Royal app developers!!!!

Just today I received an email from American Airlines asking me to D/L their phone app for their health questionnaire to "Help protect the environment" instead of printing one out?   Maybe RCCL is adopting that philosophy as well?

American Airlines has a health questionnaire? The vast majority of my air travel is on American and I have never been asked to complete any health questionnaire.

I can’t help you with the printing of that calendar, but if I can recommend an app to easily track your vacation plans and reservations - TripIt (there is a free version snd paid version, but we’ve dropped down to the free version because we are not traveling many times a year).
 

I will attach a sample of the one that I have done, this was for a cruise last November (I different colorful icons designate specific types of events, but that is just me being “extra” 😇😂). You can add in PDFs or JPEG‘s, anything you may need for a particular activity/event. Note - I try to set up most of the schedule prior to the cruise using reports from other cruises and the concierge on show times and previous cruise compasses).

Hi, I gave up trying to print my planner schedule, but I did create a written "cheat sheet" on a notepad which turned out to be a lifesaver for helping to plan out the shows I had to book once I got onboard. Yes, it's old school, but it was very efficient. I divided my little sheet vertically into the 6 days of my cruise, then put in the days schedule that I already knew such as dining times, excursions planned. Once I got onboard, I whipped out my little cheat sheet and got help for booking shows during times that were convenient, and I kept that thing with me all the time so we could keep referring to it without having to waste time looking at my app on the phone constantly. Worked so well, I'm always going to do this in the future! Worked well when I got home also when I tried to recall what and when I did what because the planner got erased after I got home. Good luck and have a great cruise!

Thank you so much @AlohaLivin for reminding me of TripIt....I've had this app for over 10 years and last used it in 2016. I resurrected it last night and am having a ball!! What is the biggest difference between the Free version and Pro, in your opinion?

Glad to be of help 🙂 We tried pro, but the free version is a plenty for us. The pro version gives you notices on flights, but so do the airline apps so why pay? As you can see from my example, I hope, I add various emoticons/icons to the titles of events to separate out categories of activities/items. I use⚡♨️❗☯️🌀✳️✴️♦️… etc. There may be 20 of them that will work and sadly I have no idea what distinguishes the ones at work and the ones that don’t. But I find it helpful to use one icon for all excursions, another for important notes, another for meals, etc.

Oh so that's why my 🍸won't work!!! Your idea is a good one....I'll try it.

I haven’t been able to determine why only certain ones are allowed. But if it’s disallowed it will wipe out the title you’ve used immediately. So if you’re going to try new ones make sure to  copy of the text before you chance it! I just went back and checked all the ones I’ve use of trips the last 5 years and these are additional ones to those above that are allowed:

I was able to use a sailboat emoji ⛵for my 'At Sea' days but that was it.
