Will the Cruising Ducks be banned next? Are they a "Safety Issue" as well? Just ridiculous.

The Crown docks at a different pier than the others that were cancelled there in Skagway I believe. We should be ok there.

We sail on the Crown Princess on Aug. 6 and we were officially notified of the itinerary change on July 23. Only 2 weeks before our sailing. What Princess has done concerning the Crown Princess is bordering on Fraud. They knew well before the start of the Alaska season that there were very serious engine issues on the Crown and has done little or nothing to repair them. Yet Princess continues to sail this broken ship, canceling ports and excursions, ruining people's vacations, and is still booking passengers for it while NOT informing them of the engine problems. Princess cares more about money than it does its passengers or guests. Shame on you Princess Cruises!! 28 Like

The way has been paved to discontinue the pre cruise testing. Oh happy day!

We pick them up at the Terminal. Took only about two minutes on our last cruise in January. Easy peasy. It's one less thing to have to remember to pack.

I'm just hoping that the pre cruise testing will be ending soon. Since passengers and crew are required to be fully vaccinated and Covid is on the decline and waning now, pre cruise testing is a moot point. We have an Alaska cruise scheduled in August and sailed this past January on the Regal. The added stress and anxiety prior to our January cruise due to pre cruise testing was not enjoyable. But we did have a blast on the cruise!

I see that yall are making about 17 knots. That's not too bad, considering. When the Crown Princess departed Long Beach/Los Angeles she started out at about 10-11 knots and slowly crept up to about 15 knots after a few days. We are enjoying your "Live from" posts. We are sailing on the Crown in August. Keep them posts coming...

Same here. We are on the 8/6 sailing.

On our January cruise on the Regal Princess leaving from Ft. Lauderdale, the whole process was very smooth, easy, and fast. Upon entering the cruise terminal and after security, they directed us to the Green line. And then from there, there were 2 or 3 stations we passed through for identification and Covid and such. And then they directed us to the counter area were our Medallions were waiting for us. The whole process took maybe 15 minutes at the very most. The employees will assist you the entire way. It was very well organized, you will do fine. Enjoy your cruise!
