Each and every time..we talked with people who were extremely helpful...fun...ready to pack up and come with us..professional, never rushed and seldom on HOLD! We felt like family !

See how easy it is to get carried away with being silly! There are a lot of things I might want to bring on a cruise that are not permitted, but never have I wanted to travel with a rice cooker or a hibachi grill.

Welcome aboard.
Umm most items that have a heat element (even if internal like a rice cooker) are not allowed. There may be a place to plug it in but if packed will usually turn up on the scan and be confiscated. Sorry.

Not this one. Our next cruise is a Carnival Journeys cruise in February and as of right now, the one after that is January 2020. Have a wonderful adventure. Please be sure to let us know when you return, what you thought about it.

Thank you for responding. We do wish we could take pets. Could you imagine animals all over? Right!? Nevermind!

I'll add my welcome! We have found the customer service at Princess to be outstanding. The best way to learn is by asking questions... after 37 cruises, I still have questions. The best advice I ever got was, relax and enjoy your cruise and don't try to do everything as you'll be exhausted at the end of the cruise.
Welcome to Cruiseline.com MaryJune. Please feel free to ask any question you have, chances are if you do not know it others will also benefit from the information. Most of us here on Cruiseline.com are very nice people and happy to be of help. We will answer your question even if we answered it a few months ago.
As others have stated, cruising can be an addiction.
You should have a great time on Princess, I was just on a Princess cruise and was impressed with the service, ship and food. Please post a review when you return from your cruise.

Welcome to our corner of the internet, MaryJune - Glad to have you here!
I have found that Princess is at the top of their game when it comes to Customer Service -- the same attitude you experienced on the phone will be found throughout the ships.
I do not think there is such a thing as a dumb question (other than "Where can I plug in my rice cooker on board?", but that is another thread altogether!), so feel free to ask away. Someone will have an answer for you.
