We just got off the CB today (4/15/07). It was myself (38), my 10-year old daughter, and my friend, Noel, who is 46. This is my second Princess cruise, both on the CB, and my 6th cruise overall. My daughter has been on 3 cruises, and my friend has also been on 3 cruises.

My first cruise was in 1984 on the MV Atlantic. Other than the 2 CB cruises, the rest were on Royal Caribbean (Majesty, Grandeur, and Rhapsody).

My overall impression of this cruise was really the same as it was in 2005. The ship is great!! Absolutely gorgeous. We had a great, great time; however, the food and the service do not compare at all to Royal Caribbean. It seems, at times, that certain staff members appeared to be inconvenienced when you wanted to order a drink, or ask a question. Royal Caribbean far surpasses Princess in terms of customer service, and that was basically my impression the last time I sailed on the CB. Read more
