We wanted to try Princess again. We last cruised with them in 2001. Great cruise, but those formal nights have to go if we are going to cruise Princess again. We cruise 3 to 5 weeks a year, usually on NCL. Princess tries hard, but at least on this cruise, they only delivered some of what we expected. Our Cabin Steward was very good and the Assistant Cruise director from New Zealand, Kaylee, was the best I have experienced at sea. She should be a Cruise Director somewhere very soon. Everything she did was first rate. Dining was OK in the Italian Restaurant, very good in the Steakhouse and in the Club Class dining section. The Buffet was better than expected. Embarkation, especially for a suite was average at best. Long line and very disorganized. Not a good first experience. No priority at all for suites guests other than right before check-in and that looked like about the same as for those without priority.
