I’m sure you will look immaculate in some people’s eyes in whatever you choose to wear. I don’t get concerned about what people choose to wear. i just have a great laugh instead!

Does every sailing have a mass wedding vow renewal in the lobby?
Esprit replied to kj_connections's topic in Princess Cruises
It was just us on our Royal Princess Med’ cruise. Princess did a fantastic job. -
I m happy to be in the diminishing minority. i dress smartly to complement my wife’s attire as she loves dressing up. Having worked in Menswear as a kid it’s easy for me to dress smartly regardless of formality and the suggested dress code. Cruising is a great way to see many wardrobe disasters 😂
-
We are U.K. passport holders too. i recommend you visit Martin Lewis’s website. He has all the correct answers. personally I’d renew via the fast track process. Costs a little more but then you have peace of mind and can go on all your other trips without interference.

Some people look a dork even dressed up! Squeezing into jackets long past their use by dates! Personally we always dress up regardless of the suggested dress code and don’t give a monkeys what other choose to wear.

We prefer to dine with others. Mostly tables of eight and we rotate around so we get to know all our table companions. Whenever we book a specialty venue we simply let them and the wait staff know in advance. Only once did we have unpleasant company in over 20 years of cruising

Is there an Omalleys on the Royal Princess?
Esprit replied to Shaver John's topic in Princess Cruises
We tried O’Malleys on the Sun. Didn’t like it it. The band we saw were a miserable bunch so walked out after 15 minutes. Hopefully no O’Malleys on Sky Princess next year when we cruise on it🤞 -
We never got one, but didn’t miss it either.
-
We went to both on the Sun in August. Teppanyaki was really good. We had fun with our dining companions who we hadn’t met before. The cook was very entertaining too. Sabatini’s however was not so good. The ambiance/decor isn’t as good on the Sun compared with the Grand class ships. Sabatini’s on Royal/Regal is better than Sun Princess too. Food is still good but I won’t bother again.
-
Sun Princess had them upon request.
-
We had torrential rain when we visited Bar (Kotor replacement!) The crew simply removed the seat covers and there was ample seating underneath the structural overhang. btw P&O had this deck area on its ship Arvia, when it was delivered in December 2022!

I agree, the lifts work well, but press for the floor you want too many times and you can get redirected to another!

Sorry, I can’t remember anything 😂

They had Grolsch in the Cascade bar when I was aboard in August.

It was empty as the Deck party was still in full swing. I just wanted to see what the Dome looked like before everyone moved into it. This was a Mediterranean cruise with lots of Spanish people aboard who like to party late. IMG_8216.mov

I thought the atmosphere in the Piazza was much better than what you get on Celebrity Solstice class atriums. IMG_8302.mov

Well we enjoyed the night club vibe up in the Dome. It was rocking every night from 11.45 pm until 2 am. Not that we stayed that late! IMG_8218.mov

We were on the Sun for two weeks in August. We thought the MDR (deck 6) was very warm despite the open/high ceiling at the back. Elsewhere my wife never needed a wrap to cover her shoulders. Other Princess ships we have been on in the Mediterranean have been much colder!

Island Princess - Condition AFTER September, 2024 Refurb?
Esprit replied to Smokeyham's topic in Princess Cruises
My SIL disembarked when it left the Palermo dry dock. The ship left late due to propulsion problems apparently! Strangely it is back at Palermo today but presumably as part of it's scheduled itinerary.
