What can my 18 year old do on board Princess in Alaska?
reedprincess replied to darnheather's topic in Princess Cruises
Production shows are singers and dancers performing a 35-40 minute show. Broadway -esque. MUTS is Movies Under the Stars Yes, there's a paper daily event listing aka Patter, in your cabin every night for the next day. You can see loads of sample ones online.. There's trivia, bingo, demonstrations, enrichment speakers, game shows, tastings, shows, movies, spa, casino, port lecrurs, and so forth. Something going on all day Plus, of course, watching the world go by. Enjoy. -
Single best St Lucia recommendation for 50 year olds
reedprincess replied to Spencer71's topic in St. Lucia
The waters around the Pitons are the Caribbean sea. They're deep - volcanic eruptions and all - but it's definitely the Caribbean around the Caribbean Down south, around VF, still considered the Caribbean - the general consensus for where they switch over is Moule a Chique, Vieux Fort.. Any taxi driver should be able to take you to Anse I'Vorgne. There aren't any facilities, keep that in mind - no bathrooms, food, chairs, etc. And whether they'll drive you down or have you walk - make sure to ask.. it's a 30 minutes walk down, easily an hour back up... It's a steep road/path down.. Also, by car, it's a solid 35-45 minutes south of Soufriere Beach Park, for instance.. at least 30 more minutes by car than Jalousie, for instance. Personally, by car, Soufriere Beach Park, when coming from the North, all the way.. Super easy access right off the highway, chairs and palapas, clean bathrooms, showers, restaurant, snack bars, bar, souvenirs, picnic tables, crystal clear absolutely calm waters and stunning views across the bay. Fab snorkeling along the cliffs and around the pier . See the review posted by Voyager recently... https://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/topic/2984111-snorkeling-sites-for-limited-mobility-person/#comment-67176607 Or Malgretoute maybe, with Paradise Beach Hotel. You can make a reservation for chairs and umbrellas, have lunch, snorkel, some Watersports of sorts and smack at the base of Petit Piton... Anse I'Vorgne by car is a challenge... By boat, super easy, especially as they'd have the boat for facilities, food, drinks, etc. -

What @AtlantaCruiser72said! She can do/fo any and every thing/where except buy booze. And what @MJU said. There's 18-20 meetups aboard, usually the first couple days. They find each other, lol. -
Maybe. Depends on size, etc. Will you be using aboard? That's usually a no. If solely for port - maybe. Look into the smaller ones that clip on a chair and can fit right into your luggage..

What specific Sun marketed suite perks are missing? (And by that, I don't mean from the suite perk page, given it's generic and covers all their ships, which all have some solid deviations from each other - Concierge Lounge, Signature Lounge, no lounge, Thermal Suite, no Enclave, and so forth). What was specific to the Sun that's missing in any description/listings at this point - beyond the Sanctuary Sun deck? I admit - I don't have a dog in this as I haven't booked a suite on Sun or Star, although I do book them in older ships (or have been generously upgraded in recent years).

Sun Princess Signature suite questions answered!
reedprincess replied to Sox Fan Cruiser's topic in Princess Cruises
Current bookings, ie any bookings prior to today, do NOT get the Premier Cruise Package included (nor subject to price hike). So, if you want it for the 3rd passenger, you'd still have purchase it separate. In the FAQs: https://www.princess.com/en-us/ships-and-experience/onboard-experience/sanctuary-collection?cid=mkt_vanityurl_vanityurl_sanctuary_sanctuarycollection_mixed_na_na_na -
Yup.

Changes Coming to Plus/Premier Packages?
reedprincess replied to nymshowdown's topic in Princess Cruises

The Sanctuary on Sun is 16 and up, including the Signature Sun deck area of it . And yes, it sucks for those who have minors in their suites as that's a perk they can't use.. while a 6 year old may or may not care, a 15 year old probably would care.

They haven't changed the price. It's 60/80.
