BVE LIVE From the Royal Princess

[CanadianBurger]

Hello everyone!

Prior to our sailing on the Regal tomorrow, we're doing a Bon Voyage Experience on the Royal today.

 

So far, Princess seems more on the ball today than when I did the BVE on the Coral two weeks ago. There's a separate waiting area for BVE guests, and there's three of us so far.

 

We arrived at parking about 10:20. Tip: turn left immediately before entering the garage and go straight up to level 4. It was empty.

 

Here's a pic of the Royal's new livery from the parking garage:

New sign... includes Club Class

Enjoy your BVE. You will now see the difference between the Royal & Regal, including the much talked-about mid staircase.[emoji4]

Princess is on the ball today. The BVE packets were ready at check-in!

Escorted on board at 11:45, before anyone else. First stop, Crooners, with our bartender from the Regal last year, Cha-Cha!

MDR Lunch.

What a great idea. BVE before a cruise and two ships! Thanks for the menu and the pictures. I don't see one of the ravioli, but if I were there, that's what I would be eating.

Sorry! Someone did have the ravioli at my table, but they started eating it before I could get a pic!
