Our cruise to the Panama Canal on the Island Princess. From Ft. Lauderdale to LA, CA
This was our 26th cruise and 10th on the Princess line. I am in my 70's a retired College Professor.
We booked 15 months in advanced and were told the ship had very few staterooms available both by our travel agent and by Princess main office. I talked a total of 14 people to go along with the understanding Princess would upgrade us but they never did. I choose and inside cabin because I feel we are only in our rooms to shower, change and sleep. The ship has MANY places to sit and view the outside better than the best suite. During the 15 months I called Princess many times to check on this or that so I was always in contact with them and up on what was going on. I choose to have Princess arrange my flight to Ft Lauderdale from LA, CA.
Cabin small., Shower small but OK if your not over weight.. Location super. Everything on the ship is forward ( dinner, shows etc). A small amount of vibration from the scews.
