Princess originally had an 8 day Alaskan cruise departing on May 2nd. But in February 2022, they changed it to an 11 day departing on April 29th. I was booked on the original one and rebooked for the current.

Sailing on Sapphire Princess the end of April. Not into doing the buffet for lunch on embarkation day. Suggestions?

I agree. I'm on the same cruise. That cruise was originally supposed to begin on May 2nd and only be 7 days. Then they switched it to what it is now. At least with it being right out of dry dock, they should have the cabins ready early.

I won't be sailing until April 29, 2023. Leaving from Vancouver sailing to Alaska. I will be flying in from New York the day before. I also will be staying overnight at the airport prior to the flight because of the early flight time and my distance from home to airport., Really don't want to get up at 2AM to get 6AM flight. I am really hoping that the tests required (PCR or Antigen) will no longer be needed by then because of the time frame I have. I am fully vaccinated and 2 boosters. Another thing I see is that Sapphire Princess is scheduled for dry dock. Ending on May 1, 2023. The original cruise we booked began on May 2, but got cancelled and they created the April 29th itinerary instead. Never sailed on a ship that close before/after a dry dock. Any comments?? Thank you!

I am currently booked to sail on Sapphire Princess. It was originally an 8 day cruise leaving on May 2nd, 2023 but Princess changed it to an 11 day leaving on the 29th of April. I see that it's supposed to be in drydock until May 1st. Should I contact my Princess agent about this? Please advise. Thank you.
