After 20 cruises I found the New England/Canada cruise to be so delightful I’m ready to go again. I’d rate in my top two. Great itinerary, cabin, dining options, entertainment, staff and excursions. The decor was beautiful with Italian emphasis. It exuded class. The ship indoor and out was meticulous.
I highly recommend this ship and cruise to anyone considering a cruise to New England and ...
October 11-13 Pre-Cruise
Background: We had a group of 12 adults, from 59-88 years old. Four of our group had never cruised before; the balance had cruised, some frequently. Activity levels varied. All of us live in the Southeast US.
Six of us spent a night at the Hampton Inn Airport Atlanta pre-cruise which worked out great. We kept our cars there free for a week and for a small ...
We spent a week in NYC prior to boarding (and it was hard to leave)!! Our cabin was a great surprise as it was stated an 'obstructed view' but there was NO obstruction! The cabin was room and the steward was more than helpful. The ship (Crown Princess)is a beautiful ships with many public areas, restaurants and bars. Entertainment was coordinated so that you could see two outstanding shows in one ...

Crown Princess by Dick Stein Canada/New England October 13, 2007
This was our 21st Princess Cruise, our third Canada/New England Cruise. I have elite status with Princess and booked a AC Mini-Suite last February but got a last week best upgrade ever to Penthouse Suite R411. We drove 8 hours on Friday to Edison, NJ and stayed at the Holiday Inn Express off I287. The next ...
This was our first cruise and we decided to go on the Canada/New England out of the Brooklyn Terminal in New York. The average age on this cruise was probably early to mid 50's. We are in our mid 30's and the age difference did not bother us. We flew to NY early in the AM on our departure date, despite doing circles over Penn, everything went as expected.
We had the dreaded cabin B751 with the ...
7 Day (Sat.- Sat.) New England/Canada Cruise on September 29, 2007
Embarkation This was very smooth and fast. We arrived at the pier at 1:45pm; took Rockaway car service 718 659-1111 from a JFK area hotel. X-ray machine was 1st, then check in counter (2:05pm). Entered ship on port side deck 7. Went straight to our cabin (2:10pm) to drop off carry on and look out at the Statue of Liberty from our ...
First off we booked this cruise when we received an email from Princess with greatly reduced rates. We booked an outside cabin for $499 plus taxes. Great price. Although there were a few minor glitches, overall this could be one of the best cruises we have taken. (This was our fifth Princess cruise, we have also sailed Royal Caribbean three times and once on Celebrity). It was not the ports that ...
