Princess Alaska Cruise Reviews

I will skip the usual complaints about our entire itinerary being changed from inside passage with our time in ports dramatically reduced after the cruise was paid in full. To begin with, we flew in the day before and never received a time to be at the port. Were never given an option to select a time even though we were green lane in the Medallion app. We paid for airport to port transfer and ...

Can I just start by questioning why Princess has the MedallionNet app and medallions? We have used these for a few years with Princess (March 2020, November 2021, February 2022, and now July 2022) and have had the same experience each time. From the pre boarding information never being retained. To the medallions and the internet rarely working on board the boats. If this were in its infancy ...

I have been on several cruise lines over the years, and historically always had a great time on princess. Unfortunately it had been a few years since we had been on a Princess cruise, so this cruise was a bit of a shock On the plus side, almost all of the staff was great, except one woman at the front desk who was so rude, her behavior alone caused me to swear off Princess So, after a long ...

This is my first and last sailing for princess cruises. First and foremost, this ship is not following any COVID protocol. Many passengers were chatting about various members of family getting COVID on board and most were not self-reporting. Case in point, there is COVID spreading on every sailing and you'll have a good chance of getting it on board. I'll start with the good: The cabins and ...

We have cruised multiple times in the past as well one prior time with our daughter with another cruise line. (Have also gone on Princess cruises in the past prior to COVID). Despite this being the most expensive one we've gone on yet, it was also the most disappointing unfortunately. Boarding the ship was hours long (much worse than other cruises we have been on), there was a total lack of ...

I have been on a Princess Alaska cruise years ago and very much enjoyed it. Other than the fantastic scenery, this cruise was much more of a disappointment. We booked a Club Class Mini-Suite. Dolphin Deck mid ship. I have been on 5 Princess cruises and 7 overall. Even before the cruise, I was concerned. The itinerary changed twice up to just a few weeks before. It stated that due to engine ...

This was our fourth cruise with Princess and our third cruisetour to Alaska. We booked this late June/early July 2022 cruise in October, 2021 in concert with our friends who had never been on a cruise or seen Alaska. We booked and paid for our shore excursions as early as we could and thought we were all set for a great adventure. However, we soon began getting emails from Princess ...

We have enjoyed sailing on Princess in the past, however, this cruise was the worst ever. The cruise port was a disaster from the moment we got off the bus from the airport. The people at the entrance to the cruise port said go stand in line. We asked where the line was and were told over there. Over there turned out to be a circuitous line with over a thousand people in it. There were NO ...

This is our 5th cruise with Princess. We’ve always had great experiences until this one. I’m not sure we’ll sail with Princess again. We took this cruise with some family members. That’s the only thing that saved it. As with almost all of the previous reviews we had ports canceled and late arrivals. The buffet closed earlier and offered less. The food was often cold. The crew members and ...

Our cruise was to honor my father who passed in 2020. My mom and the rest of my family wanted to trace the foot steps they took (mom and dad) when they visited Alaska many times. Unfortunately this was impossible because of the limping ship. Prior to setting sail many issues arose like canceled excursions, port cancelations and more. It only got worse once we boarded and departed on our first ...
