Princess Medallion

Princess Cruises offers a unique and advanced cruising experience through their MedallionClass, which leverages wearable technology to enhance the overall guest experience on board. This small, wearable device, known as the Medallion, offers numerous benefits and functionalities aimed at making your cruise more personalized and effortless.

Key Features of the MedallionClass

  1. Expedited Boarding: The Medallion enables a streamlined boarding process, allowing guests to start their vacation sooner.
  2. Keyless Stateroom Entry: Your stateroom door unlocks automatically as you approach, providing seamless access.
  3. On-Demand Services: Through the OceanNow feature, guests can order food, drinks, and other amenities from anywhere on the ship and have them delivered directly.
  4. Touchless Payments: MedallionPay facilitates easy and secure transactions for purchases on board and at select stores in port.
  5. Onboard Navigation: The OceanCompass feature helps guests find their way around the ship and locate friends and family.
  6. Enhanced Safety Training: Guests can complete muster safety training through their stateroom TV or personal devices, avoiding crowded muster stations.

Princess Plus and Princess Premier Packages

Princess Cruises offers two premium add-on packages that enhance the MedallionClass experience: Princess Plus and Princess Premier. There are many other benefits to the plan, but here are the ones specifically related to the Medallion.

Princess Plus Package ($60 per person per day):

  • Free Medallion Device Shipping: For U.S. guests, the Medallion device can be shipped to their home at no extra cost. This saves time when you arrive at the port!

Princess Premier Package ($80 per person per day):

  • Free Medallion Device Shipping: For U.S. guests, the Medallion device can be shipped to their home at no extra cost.

Comparison to Traditional Cruise Line Cards

Compared to the traditional cruise cards used by other cruise lines, the Medallion offers a more technologically advanced and integrated experience. Traditional cards typically serve as room keys and onboard charge cards but lack the advanced features of the Medallion, such as automatic door unlocking, precise location tracking for service delivery, and integrated digital experiences.

Advantages of Medallion over Traditional Cards:

  • Contactless Interaction: Reduces the need for physical contact, enhancing convenience and hygiene.
  • Enhanced Personalization: The Medallion can be used to customize experiences, such as dining reservations and onboard activities.
  • Real-Time Location Tracking: Facilitates the delivery of services and helps guests navigate the ship more efficiently.

Princess Cruises' MedallionClass represents a significant leap forward in cruise technology, offering a more seamless, personalized, and connected experience compared to traditional cruise line cards.

Accessories

Princess Cruises offers a variety of Medallion accessories that allow guests to personalize their cruising experience. These accessories are designed to fit different styles and preferences, ensuring that each guest can carry their Medallion in a way that suits them best.

For those with a sporty style, there are sports bands available in various colors. If you prefer something more elegant, there are jewelry-inspired bracelets and necklaces. Additionally, sustainable options include wrist straps made from reclaimed ocean plastic, highlighting Princess Cruises' commitment to the environment.

Other popular accessories include retractable lanyards, which offer convenience and ease of use, and clips that can be attached to clothing, hats, or bags for those who prefer a more discreet way of carrying their Medallion. For families, especially those traveling with children, fun character bracelets are available, featuring designs like Hello Kitty and various animals, making it both practical and enjoyable for kids.

Medallion accessories range in price, with clips starting at $7 and premium bracelets available for up to $45 when purchased before the cruise. Guests can shop for these accessories through their OceanProfile in the Princess Cruises App or find them on board in the OceanFront store. Shipping for these items is a flat rate of $10, but is free for guests with the Princess Plus or Princess Premier packages
