This is my 13th cruise overall, 10th on Princess. From embarkation to debarkation, there were no issues to speak of. Many people complain about anything and everything... it's vacation, enjoy it. For the amount of money being paid, you really cannot beat the product. Took this one again because it was out of NYC and just a car ride from home.. no dealing with the miserable airlines and all their crap. Park the car, walk to the ship. No baggage limits and other air travel nonsense. We were on board before noon and had our bags within an hour or so. Well done!
The ships is in great shape. This was my 4th time on this vessel and first time since the dry-dock and upgrades.... piazza, crown grill, sanctuary, etc. Very nice changes. Piazza is very nice. The Wine bar with Sushi was excellent! Really great place to get some snacks and hang out casually. We really did not bother with much of the entertainment this time... the African-American comedian, (sorry, cannot remember his name), was excellent... hilarious. Aside form him, not much else to really say much about. The production shows are pretty much "seen them, done them" same old stuff.
The passengers on this trip were kind of laid back and a bit less "party-oriented". So kind of boring unfortunately. But I must also say, the kids were well behaved and there was little rudeness or bad manners.
