We did the ABC 8 day cruise on Princess last Thanksgiving. We loved it. Snorkel in Bonaire; it’s the most beautiful and colorful fish I’ve ever seen snorkeling.
-
Speaking of the last night lines, my daughter had a problem with her luggage and we were stuck in that line from hell.
We decided it could have been entertaining if we hadn’t been stressed. We didn’t hear anyone removing DSC but a lot of people with questions and some arguing.

Welcome to Cruise Critic! I’ve found a lot of great advice over the years and have saved money because of it.
Let us know when you book. I think we like to travel vicariously!

We just cruised Alaska on the Coral and had that new bed. It was comfortable!!
I’ve had the uncovered mini-suite balcony and it almost unusable on our Panama Canal cruise. And it made the room hot.
-
It is very touristy but in Skagway, we did the Days of ‘98 show about Soapy Smith. It was kitschy and fun. Hot, though as it was during our whole cruise.

We also booked in April of this year for our July cruise. Our TA was shocked as I usually plan early.
Also, at least in July, every port had lots of tours that you could book right then.

Have a great cruise! Your daughter is a good age for her first cruise. Mine loved the kids’/teen clubs until she aged out.
-
Great review! I am curious about a really big ship but I’m not sure we would like it.
We’re doing the Regal Princess next year, so that will be a change.
-
Thank you for your review! It was very balanced.
-
My husband and I just got off the Coral on August 1. Several times we asked each other where everyone was. The ship never seemed crowded.

I do Zumba on Princess too, it's a big draw for me that I can Zumba on sea days on Princess. I'm trying to get DH to go with me on the Zumba Cruise, though I might just go alone if he won't go. It's the first time it coincides with my college's spring break.
My Alaska cruise on the Coral was a disappointment re: Zumba and me. I missed one due to a spa appointment then it was offered at an inconvenient time. I ended up not making it to a class.
-
Congratulations! That is great.
-
Thank you for the review! Glad you enjoyed yourselves.

Even though it is very sad when the cruise comes to an end, and although it may have been a fabulous cruise, we are still ALWAYS missing our pets and cannot wait to go home to them. I know, a little weird, but that is how we feel.
We miss our pets, also. After our recent Alaska cruise, I had to immediately get on another plane to go to my daughter’s wedding shower. I really miss my cats and dogs.
-
On our recent Caribbean cruise, the ship ran out of change. We weren’t able to get one dollar bills.
We’re taking a lot to Alaska.
-
Thank you. I hated to ask multiple places but I will.
-
I also asked on my Roll Call but was hoping more people would see it here.
We leave Thursday and have not received any sort of detailed itinerary yet. I plan on calling my TA tomorrow but everything seems vague.
Thanks!

Thank you for this comparison!

I’m booked and already excited! We’re doing the 11 day Regal Princess itinerary out of Copenhagen on August 6th.
I missed the 13 day Serenade one in my search but my son-in-law has limited vacation days and he’s going to be using them all as it is.
We had this itinerary booked in 2007 and had to cancel due to family illness.
-
The first thing I would consider is that you should not require everyone to do everything together. Yes, select some things for everyone to do, but also allow certain times for smaller subgroups or individuals to do their own thing.
People will more enjoy this variety, and take some responsibility off the organizer.
I wanted to emphasize this! We went to Hawaii for my in-laws 50th anniversary and there were eight of us. My father-in-law thought we should all move as a pod, lol.
But splitting up is the way to go at least some of the time. The nice thing about a cruise is that you all eat together and then you can compare notes.
-
Just another vote to try to do the tour. I enjoyed it and would do it again on a different class ship. We were on the Coral.
I also bought a heavy cookbook during the cruise.
-
What a great review. I loved your pictures.
This is now my next dream cruise. My number one is the Baltic we’re doing next year.

Zumba Cruise 2019 dates just released.
March 24-29, Navigator OTS
Miami, Freeport, Sea Day, Labadee, Sea Day, Miami
I think we all would love to hear from someone who has been on the Zumba cruise!
I’d love to hear from someone who did one!
My daughter and I did Zumba on the Crown Princess every day we could. Princess doesn’t charge extra.
I’m trying to get my daughter to do the Zumba cruise.

Thank you! I’m curious to see the size of mine.

We were on the Crown Princess. The ship was a nice size, there was free Zumba every sea day, the International Cafe was great too.
It was our second time on the Crown.
