Crown Princess November 21-28, 2009
Captain: Marco Fortezze Cruise Director: Ron Goodman Maitre d'hôtel: Jean-Francois Ferat Executive Chef: Giuseppe Pollara
Our journey started early on Saturday morning from Charlotte to Fort Lauderdale. We arrived on time in FLL around 10:00. We grabbed a taxi and headed to the ship. We got there around 10:30, filled out the health form, got our group number and waited. The embarkation process started around noon and since we were in group 2 we were on board shortly after.
Our cabin was a nice size; not too small or cramped. There was plenty of room to walk around the bed and it was designed so that the desk and refrigerator were beside the bed rather than at the foot of the bed.
The beds were put together to make a queen size. We had a desk, refrigerator and one chair. The balcony had two chairs and a small round table. The shower was extremely small. Towels were quite rough. It would have been nice if Princess had designed the room so that the bed would be facing the balcony and you could see the ocean or island if docked while lying in bed.
