I was ready for another cruise post-pandemic. Couldn't get anyone to go with me, so I went solo, biting the bullet and paying the single supplement. I booked the cruise through [an agency]. I guess that there was something of a discount but I found out that a couple of other solo passengers didn't pay as much as I did, so maybe next time I will try another agency or book directly with Princess. I ...
This was cruise number 4 of 2022 for me as I continue to use up credits from past COVID related cancellations. I did this same itinerary back in February 2022. Back then, the ship sailed at about 25% capacity and I really enjoyed it. This most recent cruise on the same ship and itinerary was a completely different animal. It sailed at almost full passenger capacity with a reduced ...
This ship is filled to capacity & it’s clear they are under staffed. Tables are not cleared & reset in the buffet & outdoor eateries. Princess still serves a condensed, liquid coffee that is mixed with hot water, so basically it’s instant coffee. Fresh brewed is only available for purchase In Coffee & Cones or International Cafe. Every other cruise line (Celebrity, Holland America, Royal ...
We choose this cruise because our dad wanted to see Alaska, Juno and Glacier Bay. We sailed on this same ship in 2016 on a Mexican Rivera cruise. The ship is dated and needs updates. The itinerary is wonderful and perfect. The staff is what made this cruise a truly wonderful experience. Prior to the cruise, I had great difficulty using the website, the chat option and the customer service ...
We had such a great time. Princess knows how to make your vacation easy and memorable. Our cabin was clean and nice. We had a deck that we enjoyed through Glacier Bay and each morning with coffee. Our interactions on the boat with employee's were first rate. Each and every employee seemed to love their job and care about everyone on board. The cruise director staff was always ...
Choose cruise for itinerary. Met expectations. Iceland worth the trip. Baltic was interesting to us. Enjoyed area. Would have liked to have seen more Norwegian fjords . Ship stopped in port every day. Without missing port due to weather we would not have cruised any fjords.
Ship did not meet expectations. Far behind on maintenance- automatic doors not working through entire cruise around the ...
Went with a friend who uses a cane and the elevators were timely and efficient.
Had perfect weather in Juneau, Ketchikan, Icy Straight Point.
Prince Rupert was a bit rainy but the shops were excellent!
The dining room had excellent fresh bread at every meal and all dishes were good to excellent with a broad variety.
Excellent coffee in International Cafe with many selections,
...
I have been on several cruise lines over the years, and historically always had a great time on princess. Unfortunately it had been a few years since we had been on a Princess cruise, so this cruise was a bit of a shock
On the plus side, almost all of the staff was great, except one woman at the front desk who was so rude, her behavior alone caused me to swear off Princess
So, after a long ...
Our Alaska Cruise aboard the Grand Princess was Excellent. I was concerned about some of the negative reviews I read before the cruise about the Grand Princess. However, after spending a week on the ship I must say those people must just like to be negative about everything. Our experience was great. The ship is older but has been refurnished and it was up to Princess standards. This was our ...
Our British Isles cruise on Emerald Princess that started 26 June did not begin well. We had done all necessary actions to ensure a promised swift passage through the Embarkation Hall. However so had the vast majority of those boarding and then the tightly packed long queue was told there was a software problem.
The dining room waiters and our cabin steward were excellent. Sadly the fare in ...
