My wife and I enjoyed the balcony so much on our Panama Canal cruise. We were up early , ordered coffee, mimosas , and breakfast and sat on our balcony for hours. The breeze, the sun rising as we were going under the bridges was spectacular. We turned the tv volume up and listened to the narrations throughout the morning. Definitely worth the price and not in a crowd of people. Later in the day had an plenty of center facing views of the various Canal locks on our Panama Canal excursion. Whatever you decide enjoy it was one of our favorite cruises!

I never understand why people want to hurry up and sail on a new ship??? Of course there is going to be issues! Then come all of the bad reviews but dont let that deter you. You were smart to wait to til the ship as already been in service 3-6 months to work out the kinks. I am sure by the time you sail in July everything will be in proper order so dont stress you will have a wonderful cruise!

So just went yo the new app today and it doesnt show we booked the plus package? On my booking confirmation it shows we purchased the plus but the app is not showing it. Any advice?

Agree Everyone has their own likes & dislikes but location is a must for us. We have them put the do not upgrade stamp on our booking summary as soon as we book. We love being midship and steps away from everything. Our friends dont mind walking from one end of the ship to the other to have a balcony upgrade but that is just not for us. Hope you get a good one!

New app old app a total joke. Spent 2 hours on the phone with Alibaba and the forty thieves also known asPrincess customer service reps. All of my shore excursions and dining reservations disappeared so tried getting help. LOL Just a noisy overseas call center. 4 different reps all worse than the one before. This happened on a previous cruise as well. So ridiculous!

What a nice compliment; thank you. Wife loves taking pics but those photographers are too serious and are like straight ahead, head back, arm here…. yada yada yada. We just start doing fun poses and tell them to snap and hope we find a good one. 88 days til our next sailing so wishing you and everyone else wonderful journeys!

I really dont consider bringing and wearing my or my wife’s formal attire as drama but as I stated at the beginning of my post “be you”just do me the favor and let me be me. 🙏

Do you; and if you is casual go casual if you us a tux do a tux. I do me and me is: If my wife can go through all of the trouble of doing her hair, make up, nails , and wearing uncomfortable but sexy heels then me putting on a suit or tux is a breeze. 😄

Glad you had a good experience on the Caribbean Princess wish I could say the same. And thanks looking forward to trying 2 different cruise lines this May in Celebrity and MSC. Probably also trying the Enchanted Princess next year since it is a newer ship and fellow experienced cruisers have strongly recommended the newer ships over the older ones like Caribbean.

Nope why would I want to do that? I enjoy cruising just not my latest on Princess. That is why in May & November we have booked 2 cruises with different cruise lines than Princess.

Just to be clear my review was fair and honest as I never stated I’m not coming back. I simply stated due to my disappointment I am now willing to try 2 other cruiselines before returning to Princess. Had I not had a bad cruise I would have continued with my Princess loyalty. I agree with you wholeheartedly as to trying other lines so heres hoping for some good cruises Be well

Have not but one friend loved MSC and another said it was like Carnival and hated it. Have to see for myself I guess. Have a great week

Thank you for the yacht club recommendation as we will be trying MSC after our Celebrity cruise. Happy cruising!

Chose MSC because they transfer your loyalty tier to theirs so Elite on Princess gets the tops benefits on MSC. Again wouldn’t even be trying this but Princess failed us so trying some different lines: Celebrity & MSC.

Appreciate your thoughts and insights as experienced cruisers offer the best advice. Thank you 🙏
