This was our first cruise on the Majestic after other cruises on various Princess ships.
We loved that you could hardly feel any movement as the ship was so large. Our room was further to the front.
Jamie’s band were absolutely amazing and had the passengers rocking. We spent most of our nights on the dance floor, which was on level 5 near the Vibes Bar. The team there were always busy but ...
Not the princess I sailed on 6 years ago. Had a reserve suite and the only Benefit was the dining room where the food and staff were fantastic. As for the rest forget about it. No such thing as priority boarding. Same line for everyone. Forget the sanctuary. Went right to it and was told it sold out in minutes. Also had Premier package. Priority reservations for specialty restaurants is not a ...
Oh boy, this is my first Prince's cruise, I have been a steady Carnival cruiser for 20 years, but this trip we changed to Princess. So after 2 at sea days getting from Sydney to New Zealand, the dreaded announcement came on from our captain that the call to the Bay of Islands (1st port-of-call) was getting cancelled due to weather, namely winds about 25kts. That the Majestic couldn't hold her ...
We picked this cruise originally as it was to be the 3rd cruise on Sun Princess as it turned out it was the inaugural cruise which was more expensive at the time of booking but we felt by the 3rd cruise all would be working what a mistake!!!
Princess should have let us know before we travelled that the theatre and park 19 would be unavailable to us instead just giving 60$ each when we on board ...
Looked forward to sailing on what was promoted as a fantastic ship. However. venues too closed in a nowhere for a quiet drink before dinner as everything took place in the piazza. On Plus package and ket getting charges fro drinks I never had. No shows, No Park 19, No Dome events. this list could go on. Even paid a supplement for speciality and was charged service charge on top of that.
Do not ...
Imagine this scenario: Princess Cruiseline sends out an email to booked passengers for the 2/28 Inaugural (by default after 2/8 and 2/18 were canceled) cruise. The email discloses that, despite their best efforts, the ship just isn't quite ready yet. Never the less, they have decided to sail as planned vs canceling outright. This fantasy email gave passengers the option of rescheduling to a ...
1) No production shows. The arena isn’t ready and actors need to rehearse. Everyone was given a $60 credit.
2) Santorini port visit was cancelled. Something about the cable car in town was undergoing maintenance. Crete was substituted.
3) I’d suggest making dinner reservations each night in horizons level 6 or 7. Then if you want to go to a speciality restaurant jsut cancel the horizons ...
Staff is great and they out of their way to please customers.
Food is below average and repeats every day.
Ship layout is amazing and provides feeling of a smaller ship. Nothing is ever crowded.
Reserve balconies are good for one person. However the room a spacious.
Spa wasn't fully ready.
Onboarding was smooth even for a large ship.
Cost management is very obvious. Big shows ...
I was advised that being on the inaugural cruise is like being the guinea pig. Therefore, I purposely chose the third sailing of the new Sun Princess cruise. However, due to the cancellation of the first two sailings, we ended up on the inaugural cruise. I was excited, thinking that everything on the cruise would be brand new, and I hoped the advice I got wasn't true. As it turns out, my friend ...
We chose this cruise for three reasons. The first was a lifelong desire to see the Panama Canal. The second was how much we enjoyed our Alaska Cruise Tour with Princess before COVID. The third was - COVID was no longer a concern to us!
First of all, don't get me wrong - we LOVED the cruise. The staff and crew were amazing, cheerful and helpful (especially our cabin attendant Czar). The food was ...
