Embarkation was a nightmare, 2500 people all lined up for 3 hours at the same time, a disaster.
No internet for 13 days, and many days no TV.
Had to line up on day 2 for a Covid test, despite already having to provide a negative covid test two days before boarding??
95% of passengers never wore masks, which was highlighted by dozens of passengers having covid after day 2 tests who were ...
This is a long and detailed "Log" style review. It's pretty positive until near the end, when everything went downhill to an unacceptable level. If you just want the summary just scroll all the way down.
Emerald Princess 4-16-22
We left home and met our traveling friends at their home at 8:30. We managed to get all the suitcases into their vehicle and we are off to Port Everglades. We ...
It's difficult to be brief when you plan a year ahead, and the Princess is unprepared to honor their guests.
1. Deception: Is this the first time a world class ocean liner business has crossed the Atlantic Ocean? NO Internet for 13 days. Struggled to get Wi-Fi at three of the 5 ports-of-call; briefly at 2 of the ports.
2. Limited Entertainment: One main room entertainer: John Bressler ...
i have nothing but negative words to say about the norwegian cruise line. we had problems since walking on the ship. we came with 7 people sharing three rooms. getting on we were each given key cards to get into our rooms. which one after another didn’t work. we had to contact guest services several times to have them fixed yet they could not figure it out for us. one of the members we came with ...
the best advice I could give you is to cancel if you have a reservation on the VOYAGER OF THE SEAS.
There are a lot of problems on this ship
during our cruise they didn't heat pools !!! (economy !) and closed 4 hots tubs on 6, they said they had to fix it.. they opened it the last day and HOT TUBS didn't work (no bubbles)
They didn't want to spend a lot of money during this cruise so ...
Our cruise was originally booked for 2020 Leaving from Miami to San Miguel, Lisbon and 3 stops in Spain and then flying home to Boston. Because of the pandemic this did not take place. We were told in November 2021 that we had to choose a cruise by December 2021 or loose trip and money. We decided to go out of New York harbor into Caribbean with stop in Dominica Republic, St Thomas, St Maarten ...
This was handily the worst cruise experience of my life. I've cruised since being a child, largely with family and this was no different. Now at 24 I went to Ft. Lauderdale filled with excitement to board my first Cunard - The Queen Mary 2 no less.
Surprise from the onset, not the good kind. Due to increasing cases of COVID-19 on the ship we were being tested at the port. Before we boarded. ...
We chose Norwegian Star because of the price was right. But the saying goes you get what you pay for. Let me start by saying that if you expect help from personnel if you contract Covid on the ship, you are badly fooling yourself. Let me tell you, as for a health care professional for 40 years, sanitation is the least of there worries. I went on board on April 13, 2022 in Venus, Croatia, ...
I have been on three cruises from January to April 2022, all Royal Caribbean. Navigator of the Seas is a huge disappointment. The food was consistently overcooked to the point most of it was the same color brown or beige. The food had no flavor in all of the complimentary restaurants, it was shockingly bad especially compared to other Royal Caribbean ships. Room service was timely and breakfast ...
Our background: We usually sail Celebrity but decided to try Princess for the first time since we could embark SF and did not need to fly.
Summary: we won't be back on Princess.
The Good:
Sabatini – Beautiful view of Golden Gate Bridge aft deck 16 as we enjoyed our meal at a window table as the ship sailed out of SF bay. Great waiter and non-crowded venue, as compared to the cluster-f* ...
