USFFrank Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 If you request a copy of the Cruise Compass with your room steward, it will be provided for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately when I’ve been in a Suite they have provided a paper Compass but if I’m not in a Suite I’ve had to ask for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obdave Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 Just a casino ocean view. I shall take care of our steward. Maybe it was the $20 I slipped her on embarking to keep the admiral well pleased with towel animals asquared17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattycruise Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 When I inquired last year at Guest Services about getting a cruise compass I was told it’s automatically given to guests of a “certain age” ( not disclosed). I believe my reply was something about getting one for a cranky middle aged woman, they promptly gave me one. Maybe you are “of that age”?

Obdave Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 Lol. Of that age but I hope not cranky Pattycruise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattycruise Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 5 hours ago, Obdave said: Lol. Of that age but I hope not cranky I was just cranky because they first lied and said they don’t print them at all and they stuck to the lie. I knew it was a lie because I’d been sailing, a lot. When pressed they said it goes to people of a certain age without them asking. That’s when I asked about cranky middle aged people-said with love.

The Fox Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 We just got off of Voyager and received the Cruise Compass also. I asked the room steward and he said anyone over 70 will receive them. Teasingly I said so you think we can't figure out how to use the app? Shari, PPPJJ-GCVAB and Pattycruise 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obdave Posted February 2 Author Report Share Posted February 2 Dang, we’re still of working age but living in the mountains may have aged us physically asquared17 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditchdoc Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Typical for us to ask for the Cruise Compass and a couple of extra towels every day. We are generally pleased with the response. Last cruise was a B2B for two weeks and by the end of the cruise I think we had 7 towel animals lined up. Our cabin attendant received a nice tip.

We are of age and still have to ask for the Cruise Compass. Maybe we still look too young to qualify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAYNO Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Seems to be case by case, ship by ship... On our last cruise on Navigator, Jr. Suite, we asked our cabin person for a paper copy, and we received one every day throughout the cruise. On Symphony, a cruise or two earlier, also a Jr. Suite, paper copies were not available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Va4fam Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 Just returned from 11 days on Anthem. Met our cabin attendant the first night and when he asked if we needed anything, we requested the daily compass. Problem solved! Other items we requested: extra blanket (it was cold leaving and returning to NYC), wine glasses. We encouraged our attendant to take a "day off" from servicing our cabin and provided a nice tip at the end of the voyage.

Mrs. Thomas Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 @Ditchdoc Those are too cute! I'm going to have to remember to take a picture like that on our next cruise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising_Figure_Skater Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 It'll be interesting to see if I get them on Oasis in May. I'm 34 but have requested large print versions through the Special Needs team as I'm visually impaired and although the app is good for some stuff, on previous cruises on other lines I've always found the paper versions easier to use, as overuse of screens can make some of my sight issues worse (I have to take regular breaks when using my computer at home and work, for example).

Last2Know Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 Can confirm that I have received a paper version of the Cruise Compass delivered to my stateroom every evening while on Vision. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geezer Of The Seas Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Vision & Enchantment are old ships, correct? Cruise Compass might be 'printed' on stone tablets? Not today's technology and all................. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
