No more all print package on the Wonder

If they go the same way as their counterpart on RCCL (both are owned by the same company), they will only print pictures on demand. There won't even be any physical prints to look at, it's all digital.

I like the way they do it on RCCL. There is so much waste in printing out all those photos day after day for thousands of guests. The only prints RCCL has out are "lost" photos where the facial recognition didn't work. They have lots of kiosks where you can view your photos and you can also order prints there.

It was the standard look for your picture on the wall of prints on the Radiance two simmers ago and the Brilliance last summer.

It wasn't that way last year on Independence or Freedom.

Maybe it's either ship by ship it varies or they're gradually changing them over.

On our last Panama Canal cruise we have well over 500 pictures. Most 8x10 pictures.

I had hundreds of photos from Alaska, but of those, I only wanted prints of a handful of them. And certainly not 8 x 10. That's just huge. I can't fathom what I would do with 500 8x10 photos. I literally wouldn't know where to put them. It's not like you can display that many photos, unless you want to wallpaper an entire room with them!

Oh, that would be my dream. I'm a border hater!

In looking back...I have some that have borders and some that don't. So it looks like the option is there.

I agree I can't imagine why I would print 500 photos. I have thousands of photos on my computer but only pick so many to print. Although I do agree the quality is better when you talking 4x6 I usually get an offer for 100 free prints every month or so from shutterfly but i usually male the books. So easy to enjoy.

Hopefully you can get a few printed for you.

I bought 5 or 6 individual digital pictures on the Wonder, ten days ago... (I usually never buy pictures but it was a special family trip so I bought my favorites).

I had a pin code and they directed me to a page where I could download the pictures (I think we had 24 hours to do it) so I downloaded them on my phone.

I ordered the 8X10 prints through Costco when I came back home. It cost me about 1,39$ per print. Not bad.

I haven't cruised since 2014, but you absolutely cannot compare the high-quality, gorgeous prints we purchased on board with prints from Shutterfly, Costco or Walmart! Yes, they're pricey but so worth it. I hope we can choose a few to print on board (if the quality is still the same ). I take way too many pix myself, I'd just like a few favorites professionally printed out with that Disney magic touch.

I don't know. I've had mine done at Costco when I came back home and they look pretty amazing.
