Esilef Posted January 18, 2020 #34 ย Share Posted January 18, 2020 Did they stay for the entire show?ย ย Im sure no one was forcing them to. ย wonder if they got offended on the pool deck? ย Some people and media just go looking for a reason to complain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Big_M Posted January 18, 2020 #35 ย Share Posted January 18, 2020 As far as I know this originated on RCL. So am a bit surprised it was on Princess. Unless say the CD had switched lines and brought it across with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost a nautical tradition. ย Even Disney, the most conservative of cruise lines when it comes to "adult entertainment", does the Quest on their ships! Certainly not as risque as the other lines (the worst I've seen is men needing a woman's bra), but it's still 18+ Edited January 18, 2020 by ivanp91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

possum52 Posted January 19, 2020 #39 ย Share Posted January 19, 2020 I almost choked on my cup of tea when I read 'Golden Princess Strip Show' as the heading on this thread!ย We cruised twice on the Golden in 2018.ย Surely not the passengers on the Golden behaving that way. Then I watched the video and read the report from the link given by lyndarra, it all made sense, a couple of people whose expectations of cruising were not what the reality was. As others have said events similar to the Quest are givenย R rating and advised as Adults Only. Why stay if you are offended? I checked the Patters from our last Golden cruise in November 2018 to NZ, the only showย which could possibly be classed in the same category was Adult Jokes at 11.45 pm. The rating given was PG 18. Perhaps Princess is trying to attract younger passengers hence the Quest show being on now. I wonder what other attendees at the show had to say about it.ย ย As for missing ports, wow, we most likely have missed ports, I know we have, it is part of cruising. Weather, emergencies due to illness, accidents and mechanical problems all play a part in why ships miss ports. Evidently this couple didn't do enough research on what to expect on a cruise. I hope they have had their 15 mins of fame now! ย Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted January 19, 2020 #42 ย Share Posted January 19, 2020 If I am buying water on the ship, it needs to be Evian. As a side note, when you spell it backwards it shows the type of person buying this water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
