    Everything has been amazing! On Embarkation day we arrived at the port at 9:50am . At 10:40 the Michaels Club Concierge (Vannessa) walked all Suite guest to Michaels Club. Nice touch! At 11:30 we were in Luminae for lunch. Vannessa is amazing! Our Butler Lorenzo is also amazing! We definitely lucked out with the two of them!!! Great cruise!

    For anyone who has been on Silhouette recently can you confirm if there is still a waiter in Luminae named Davut from Turkey?  He was so wonderful on our last cruise and said he was  moving to Silhouette on his next assignment.

    We are on the Silhouette now and he is in Luminae.

    If anyone sailing on the Silhouette in the upcoming weeks could check out the pool bar and see if the bartender Melbourne is still there.  We have a gift for him.  We are sailing March 15th.  Thank you in advance.  Really appreciate it.  

    Oh.....and anyone have MDR menu. We are sailing the 9 night southern Caribbean.  

     

    Thanks 

    We will be on the Silhouette March 3rd. I'll ask for you and will let you know.

    Thanks! We have been doing Aqua Class for so long and loved that. We are so excited for Luminae and Michaels Club. We came so close to upgrading to the Celebrity or Royal Suite but ended up booking another cruise instead. The PH Suite...wow! That’s so awesome! Have fun!

    The Port Schedule shows the Silhouette departing from Terminal 29 on March 3.  FWIW, we are currently on the Silhouette and it departed from Terminal 29 and by many accounts it was a very easy, well organized embarkation.  Several people reported getting onboard in record time.

     

    Enjoy your cruise 

    Thanks! 17 more days, can’t wait!

    Thanks for responding! You must really be excited with back to back coming up. That’s so awesome! After all these cruises and being our 35th Anniversary we’re finally trying something different with a sky suite, first time. It’s so much fun anticipating, packing and showing up at the terminal and being one of the first to arrive at 9:30am on embarkation day. Lol. Enjoy your back to back! Bill

    We're going on the Silhouette out of Port Everglades soon and since the Edge will be at the new terminal 25 on the same day, I'm guessing we will be at Terminal 18. We booked a suite and we were wondering if Terminal 18 has a separate sitting area for Suite guest and if Suites get priority Embarkation?  Thanks!

    booking shows

    Hi Everyone,

    We just booked Spectra's Cabaret, The Gift and We Will Rock You for our Anthem cruise in September. They are the only shows showing online to book in advance. Do they have a comedian or Magician on 9 night cruises? If so can that be booked in advance ?

    Thanks!

    Did you have an issue with your TV. Some people gat a $150 ROBC. We haven't received our yet.

     

    We did lose the service on our TV all day Thursday and up till 3pm Friday. We heard others saying they lost TV from late Wednesday until Saturday. We received 100 per person OBR and should be receiving our check 4-6 weeks after the cruise. We were in a regular balcony stateroom (not a deluxe balcony stateroom). I'm guessing those in a mini suite or regular suite probably got more since they paid more for their staterooms or suites. That's the only thing that went wrong on the cruise and it didn't affect our great time and wonderful cruise!:cool:

    Thanks for the review. We will be on the Nov 26th cruise.

     

    Did you make reservations for dinner each day or just walk up?

     

    We walked up the first three days. The last seven we locked in table 83 for two. Dinner for anytime dining started at 5pm which worked for us, so we arrived at 5-5:15 everyday.

    We just returned from the Regal Princess sailing from Brooklyn to Ft Lauderdale with stops in Antigua, St Kitts and Bonaire. It was our 31st cruise but only our 6th with Princess which put us in Platinum status. Being Platinum did have a few perks that made a big difference. Embarkation was very easy as we waited in the Elite, Suite and Platinum lounge for the first time and were among the first to board the ship. We were on the ship by 11:30 and sitting at Alfredo's at 11:40. We had the sip and sail package so that really made it nice.

     

    A great thing about Princess compared to Celebrity was our room was ready as soon as we boarded the ship. The ship was absolutely beautiful ! Our stateroom was A502 category BB right near the mid stairs and elevators. Great location. The balcony stateroom was smaller then the Emerald and Ruby (our last two Princess cruises) but it was perfectly fine for the two of us.

     

    We had anytime dining in the Symphony Dining room. The first 3 nights the service was ok. At breakfast the Head Waiter was asking us how the food and service was. We said it was fine. He said to come to his side of the Symphony Dining room and ask for him when we came for dinner. He put us at a nice table for two at table 83. WOW! The service was as good as we've ever had on any cruise. We ate at that table the remaining seven nights. The food was outstanding in the Symphony Dining room!!!

     

    The MUTS pool and the Retreat pool were really nice and the bar service at both pools were top notch. Even though there was a lot of the seat saving there were still seats available the next deck up around the pool. The pizza by the pool (Prego Pizzeria) was as I remembered from our past Princess cruises. Awesome!!! Princess has the best pizza at sea!

     

    We went to Vines everyday before dinner and the service was amazing! The nice thing about Vines on this ship was you could get just about any drink you wanted, not just wine. Speaking of Wine, the selection blew Celebrity out of the water. Way better!!! The fitness center was a lot smaller than most ships we've been on but we went from 2 to 3pm everyday and it wasn't as crowded.

    One thing that Princess needs to improve is the Future cruise sales office. This poor guy was in a one desk room and totally swamped. We put our form in for a future booking and because he was so backed up told us we would get the confirmation via e-mail when we got home. Which we did. Celebrity has a large room with many future cruise consultants.

     

    All in all it was an amazing cruise! Well done Princess. Can't wait to go again. :cool:
