Yes IMO they are pass their "use by date" but Princess will keep at least one of them until the new port is built in Brisbane, Australia as they are the only ships they own (not countineg Pacific Princess) that can fit under the Gateway Bridge to reach the present port.

The only positive I see from that would be the indoor pool. On inclement weather days I really miss it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if you're aware of it (or if it would even matter to you) but in the buffet on the Pacific at dinner time one section of the seating has tablecloths and waiter service with menus.

Same here!! We love cruising on "the beautiful little white lady", which is what one Captain a few years ago referred to her as. We'll book a cruise on her just because it's on her!! We're doing 2 this year, for exactly that reason. They may cost a little more, than a similar cruise on one of the larger Princess ships, but the TLC attitude of the crew members on her make it worth every cent.
