We have been on at least 6 Princess Cruises so decided to take the 14 day Hawaii cruise with them. Most of the cruise was typical Princess, adequate but nothing spectacular. We did notice that the entertainment on this cruise was pretty mediocre at best. Several things that happened resulted in our decision to never cruise with Princess again.

Anytime dining has become a joke. Without reservations, which defeats the whole purpose of "anytime" dining, you will stand and wait to be seated on most nights. We observed several squabbles over seating with the head waiter and many unhappy diners.

We noticed that at least half of the patrons using the food court failed to use the hand sanitation that was clearly available at the entrance. When we asked the young lady manning the station why she did not ask people to use the hand sanitizer she replied that "management has told them not to hassle people about it, that it was up to them." So, because someone decides to be a slob, everyone else is put at risk because of them. Some of the behaviors observed in the food court serving line made us understand why outbreaks of intestinal viruses are common.
