This was my sixth Princess cruise and my second to the Panama Canal. The first, with my husband, was also on the Coral Princess and we had a terrific time. This "girlfriend" trip I was excited to experience the newly refurbished Coral Princess as well as tour the Canal a second time.
The Good
Given that I am at the Platinum level both boarding and disembarkation were flawless. Our luggage arrived at our cabins (interior) without a hitch. Our cabin steward was terrific and took care of our needs and concerns throughout our two week stay on board.
The cabin was no different from any other interior cabin I've stayed in on a Princess ship. The beds and pillows were new, though, which was very nice.
