To celebrate our 45th anniversary we decided return back to the same itinerary as our First Cruise with Princess Cruises at that time on the new " Love Boat " Pacific Princess. So for this Occasion we picked the" Ruby Princess ".14 days

A Lovely relaxed cruise we chose Aloha Deck 12 in a Premium Balcony State room this time on the Starboard side first stop on itenary was new Caledonia then next Fiji however a tropical cyclone passed over the Fiji islands so the Ruby Dirverted to the island of Mare and the island of Savasuva was deleted from itinerary Sad as main reason we wanted to return to Fiji moving on the remaining itinerary was good stoped at Vanatau found knowing it best value for Duty free Perfumes and our favourite liquor.

Princess staff were as always exceptionaly friendly and professional in their service at all restaurants bars and cafe's this trip the entertainment was very good several musicians and groups were on board and comedy shows Irish band "Emerald Tide" played in several bars several times a night thought the Cruise were very popular as it was school holidays there we lots of family's on board enjoying their vacation food in restaurants was again of a high standard we selected anytime dining and sometimes you had to que to get in without a booking the food in Horizon Court generally ok a bit repetitive and tables often were scarce if having meals at regular times special restaurants with cover charge were very good." We came home new " Booking our 4the cruise now with Princess to Aslaka and advanced to Ruby status we recommend Princess Cruises Media rated 3rd best cruise company world wide we do currently agree, two other cruise lines we cruised with do not compare.
