Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. One other thing to consider is price point, while princess and celebrity are more class based it gives the opportunity for the lower classes to at least get the opportunity to see Japan.
  2. I will be doing this same cruise in 2025.....please report back 🙂
  3. Thank you everybody for the guidance So I booked with Celebrity as that went to Mt Fuji and an overnight in Osaka. Booked in aqua class for the first time so hopefully the food will be better in blu……Japan here I come. This will be my sons college graduation gift.
  4. These are my only two choices for June 2025. Cruised both in the past and am thinking Celebrity but has anyone experienced this in the near past. Post CoVid with all the changes? Appreciate all thoughts.
  5. Thank you for all the commentary and history lessons. I was just asking because it is my American tradition and we will be on the discovery over the holiday. This is my first princess cruise so I dont know what to expect.
  6. Traveling over the St Patrick’s Day holiday….does princess do special menus? I remember traveling on a cruise over thanksgiving one year and got the traditional turkey dinner on the menu….
  7. The more I see the menus the more I am tempted to just eat in the buffet. This is going to be my first cruise on Princess. I was on a Carnival ship prior to the pandemic and swore I would never book a Carnival cruise again, my bad for not realizing Princess was owned by Carnival before I booked but I liked the itinerary. My expectations are not high, but if I see the grossness that I saw on Carnival I will speak up loudly.
  8. And on my first cruise also early 90s I remember it was a five course dinner with frog legs and other very exotic foods and the waiters with the baked Alaska parading thru the dining room.
  9. This is my fear too….since you booked EZ air are they going to fly you to the first port stop?
  10. We are cruising on princess and arriving to port on Saturday booked a hotel near LAX for Saturday night with a shuttle for our Sunday flight home Want to go to universal studios on Saturday is it doable and what would be the best way. Would want to drop off our luggage at the hotel but it will probably be to early to check in
  11. If I have booked Princess Plus for me and my 19 year old, and he is getting the non-alcohol package (which I am fine with as he wants to drink milkshakes etc.) Can I upgrade only me to the premier and leave him as the Plus or since we are sharing a cabin do both of us have to be premier in which case it isn't worth the up-charge and I will stay at plus.
  12. I just realized we will be on board during St. Patrick’s Day, does princess do anything special? Should I pack my green accessories? Past cruisers please inform as this is my first princess cruise.
  13. When do you know if your bid is accepted? We are 23 days out and still shows pending even though others on our sailing have gotten their upgrades already…hoping we are not denied but I still see available cabins
  14. We rented an electric car (pretty much a glorified golf cart) but that being said -there are charging stations in St George and Hamilton and ther is enough range to get to either place park and charge while you sight-see. It charged about 10-15% per hour but only use 25% to get from dockyard to st. George. It is a good option for 2, but driving on the left is tricky and the driver must be vigilant/cognizant of that especially on turns. We also saw a couple getting on the ship when we did with the wife on crutches and arm in a sling, saying that they wished they never rented a scooter.
  15. Just sailed on the Summit….over 40 signed up never had it they said due to CoVid weren’t having it….we just made our own meet up at sail away.
