My parents were traveling with me. Also, my sister and her husband. My Mom cannot fly so driving to Ft. Lauderdale was our best alternative.
Loading and unloading were very efficient. Port Everglades is always going to be packed with ships and passengers but overall I was very pleased. The lines removed along.
Food in the Horizon Court was quite good. The MDR was consistent with past cruises. I did not visit the specialty dining options. I was disappointed to see not only has Princess increased the per person charge for the Crown Grill but now adds additional charges related to amount of food ordered $10. Nickel and dime you to death.
Cabin Stewart, Rosemarie, was outstanding. I can't brag on her enough. Our room was clean and well attended all thru the cruise. She was prompt and was in/out before we even knew it. Nice change for our last few cruises.
