The Mrs. J.

I've been trying to book, but the deposit keeps saying $72 despite it being one of the sale dates.

Just got home from a short 3 day cruise on the Golden. I wasn't impressed with the service at all. On our last night, we had a great waitstaff. However, the first two nights were not good. They were completely uninterested in us as guests and our orders and simple sodas were constantly messed up. As for our steward, it was hit and miss, just like the waitstaff. We saw our steward only once at the beginning, things that were requested were never brought, and cleaning was missed twice. I can only imagine the turnaround time for these short cruises, but I'm sad to say I was let down. However, our Caribe balcony was wonderful (but, of course it wasn't very clean). My parents who also took this cruise with us, will be elite on their next cruise, they didn't seem happy with the dinning room staff either.

Hi there- I am 44 and hubby is 50. We have cruised twice on carnival and twice on NCL. I am looking at princess line to try something new. I got the impression that princess caters to an older demographic. Would we be okay on a 7-10 cruise? This is not meant as an insult to the older generation. We socialize with all ages while on cruises. Actually an older demographic may mean less children. Which we wouldn't mind either . Happy cruising :)

I think you are correct in saying that it may mean there are less children aboard. I am 31 and DH is 32 and we are excited about relaxing on our Princess cruise.
