..... The Grand Princess sure needs some TLC. We sailed from LA to Vancouver on a 3 night Coastal Cruise that was a wonderful quick get-away.
The Shuttle from the Airport to the Port was reasonable at $15.00pp. I worried that because we did not pre-book a shuttle, that we may have a problem. Waited for only about 20 minutes with no problems.
Our balcony cabin (A502) was nicely situated in the middle of the Ship by the panoramic elevators. I was disappointed that they were basically regular elevators - nothing special at all like on other Ships. The most disappointing thing though, was that there are no stairs at these elevators. Since the pool and Buffet are only one deck up - we normally would have just walked up. Felt silly taking the elevator for one floor. The cabin was spacious enough if you are not wanting a lot of room. Nice size balcony.
