Princess Transatlantic Cruise Reviews

If you want to want to wait an hour for a drink, two hours for dinner.. extras added to your bill you didnt have and have to keep asking for it to be removed and disinterested staff… this is the cruise for you. The ship is nothing special and the lack of forward bar leads to packed atrium bars. No prom deck means the jogging track is packed with slow walkers.. the gym was good with good ...

This was a bucket list cruise to celebrate both turning 70 this year. We have sailed on Sky Princess twice before and booked New England and Canada cruise as we loved everything about the previous cruises and thought it a great fit for our special cruise. We had no idea that, after packages were booked and paid for, Princess would re-invent what they were actually offering in said packages. We ...

Cruise selected as destinations allowed us to meet up with friends and family. We are long term Cunard cruisers , having also travelled with several other lines including a previous Princess which was good. Boarding a nightmare at SOU, “stateroom” good ( mini suite with bath). Public room seating is for approx. 1500 passengers ,not 3500. Theatre seats 900 therefore two shows only ...

I booked this cruise because it went to Iceland. Little did I know that it was an "old" ship that had a myriad of problems and a staff that was clearly not putting the guest first. I've never been under house arrest, but I expect this was pretty close - wearing the tracking device, having no say in anything and having to just shut up and put up. From noise that kept me up at night (got my ...

Total chaos in dining room every nite. Reservation app didn’t work- reservations changed on us with no notice- total mess! Food mediocre at best. Room service hit & miss on whether you would actually get orders. No safe in room for valuables, broken down bed had to be replaced. New carpet shedded horribly all over clothes ea day. No vacuuming allowed to keep it under control due to hundreds ...

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 ...

Ship was understaffed. Food was the worst quality on a cruise that I’ve ever had, tough steaks, overcooked fish, sauces that were gelatinous and unpalatable. Breakfast buffet servers routinely ignored passengers causing lines. Total fiasco at Southampton on May 1 causing numerous passengers to miss flights. It was as if they had never operated a cruise during Covid. Passengers staying onboard were ...

Our experience with Princess Cruises was very disappointing. The Baltic cruise was modified to exclude Russia, which was OK. Then it was effectively cancelled and replaced with a repositioning back to England. The distances between ports, and the low value of the stops, made it seem likely that the choice of ports was to make up for an inability to refuel in Russia. The slower a boat sails, ...

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 ...
