Cruise review
Having read another review of the same cruise, it appears as though things didn't go quite as well with us. This is fourth Princess cruise, having previously cruised the Baltic, Eastern Mediterranean and Alaska.
We made our own arrangements including taxi to the port arriving at the time required by Princess and found very long queues, things clearly were not going to plan. It was early afternoon and must have taken well over an hour to board. Our passports were taken from us without explanation, something which has not happened before, it was later explained on the ship as the departure was delayed by 75 mins because some passports had not been collected and the Singapore authorities would not let us leave until all the passports were collected. Many messages went out regarding the ships crew attempts to collect these documents, but they were only ever in English, I thought of the many people who did not understand English!
