Sorry, the cruise port is at the bottom of Las Ramblas which is a main road. We have always had to grab a cab to get there. Years ago if you walked to bottom of las Ramblas the ship was right there. Now Princess built a docking area approx. 2 miles from las Ramblas at the dock.

Interesting because our friends on cruise we finished last Sat. Had the drink package and decided to never order same drink twice.

Another thing is that after approx. 12 days onboard the battery seems to be dying. You have to walk up to the cabin door and put medallion up to screen to unlock. Learnt the hard way.

But do they really need to know when or if we go to the bathroom? lol. It is literally Big Brother at its best. Found it annoying that if I went to a bar two days in a row the greeting was, oh would you like another martini,

We were on it 3 times in the past. Just ok. This past Sat. Got off it after 15 days in Panama Canal. The buffet area since its refurbishment looks wonderful. Certain areas were ignored and therefore very noticeable on the ship.

Have to add that we all boarded the early flight but after an hour an announcement was made about something wrong with plane. We were told the whole plane had to exit. We got sent to the other end of Dallas airport and another plane was sent in. Finally landed in sac. Only to learn two of our 3 bags went to San Diego? Last night after midnight the luggage was delivered. Will think long and hard about American Airlines. Their customer service sucks. They don’t control the weather so I don’t hold them responsible for the delays.

Congrats. It is 6:40 am Monday and we are at the gate in Dallas awaiting an 8:14 flight. Can’t wait to get home.

Two things to know. Get to theatre early as seats get taken every show. If you enjoy trivia, that too you need to get to early. Many days people had no where to sit.

I looked up the plat. Insurance coverage we purchased from princess. Looks like we might get monies we spent because of delay of flight. I will send in info to see what happens tomorrow.

So sorry. We were starving when we got to Dallas so ate dinner in airport. Lady next to us recommended the Hilton homewood suites which is only ten mins from airport and provides free shuttle service. Today shuttle will take us to pharmacy to purchase basics. Wearing same clothes for 3 days is disagreeable. We finally got that 8 am flight tomorrow. The homewood suites is reasonable and included breakfast.

We did ezair to return home. I believe ezair would cover getting you to ship as well as home. we got a very delayed flight from ft. L yesterday and American Airlines cancelled our connecting flight home. All this due to poor weather in Dallas. There were no flights available Sunday, we we are scheduled for Monday. Two nights in a hotel in Dallas. Our luggage is in sac. does ez air help? thanks.

On emerald princess on non smoking side to towards front end of casino on left hand wall there are six machines with leprauchan. I played 80 cents and won 1189. Cashed out. 1000.. Yesterday cwhile flying out of ft. L to Dallas the plane got delayed. We left 6 hours later and they cancelled conn3cting flight. We are stuck in Dallas with no suitcases, no clothes no toothbrush etc and no flights today - Sunday with seats available so we have to spend 2 nites here.

Cabin size on caribe not bigger than normal but our balcony was covered and bigger than other decks.

We didn’t eat at planks from our friends did and they loved it. From what I gather there are a lot of meat choices. We ate at sabbatinis and in the past loved it, but not this time. Don’t enjoy latest menu. Could not get a single reservation entire trip at crown grill except for last night of cruise, so we did not eat there. I really miss my 5 pm wine at vines with tapas. I enjoyed that more than the plat. Elite lounge. My husband and I were not enjoying the wines onboard as in the past.
