Ship Itinerary, Food, entertainment and activities has left ti me second thoughts about cruising in the future. First Cruise since Covid, only good thing was it had a challenged new crew which did their best to make it pleasant. Food was a repeat of the last day and same in all the restaurant's, you had no choice of menu change. Buffet so small with a very low standard of selection and tase. Never done a cruise like this before. I expected more from Princess. I think they are more interested in the drink package side and medallion use than anything else. they had a five-person team selling bracelets etc for the medallion, which I think should be included at no cost rather than the useless lanyard. I think they forget not everyone on these cruises are in their 20's and if Line dancing is their idea of entertainment they should rethink. It is ok but overwhelming. Showtime was very week on content and got to the point on 10-day cruise after 5 never even wanted to go to theater that is not like us. Just a lack luster effort that left us so disappointed. We hope other lines and cruises are doing a better comeback.

Don't seem to blame them for missing a port due to weather, out of there control. But after a disappointing run that put icing on the cake.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin was fine and so was the attendant, had a tough time opening door on balcony. Didn't need to work out arms in the gym.
