You guys are wonderful. Thank you so much for the info. 

Hi All,

anyone has some info about Regal Princess disembarkation timeline or schedule or an info sheet, please share. 

We currently booked a flight at 2:35pm departure from FLL. However, we’re consider changing the flights. (Traveling with a young child.). 

Many thanks. 

Not possible. We have no one, absolutely zero family member, at home to watch him, unfortunately. I wouldn’t say he ruins our vacation but definitely made it hard to enjoy the cruise. The good things came out of cruising when he’s so young are: I don’t have to cook and the buffet is perfect for a snacker like him; and he gets to see a lot of different things and people. 

We’re now definitely looking into Disney Cruises. 

Have you been on Eclipse? We’re booking one to Alaska before he turns 3. What’s your experience with Eclipse if you have been on one? 

Thanks again, everyone. This is disappointing. I wish I did some research before booking. We’re on Celebrity Edge at the moment. They’re not kid friendly either. When these places don’t offer enough services for the kids, it’s not so much of vacation for the parents either. Sucks. 

Thanks so much, everyone. Do you know if they offer babysitting/private nanny service ? 

Hi All,

We’ve been on 10+ cruises but this is our first Princess cruise (Regal). We will be bringing our 2/yr old next month. If you have any experience or knowledge about Regal Princess especially about kids programs, please share. Here are our questions. Many thanks. 

Q1. Do they offer babysitting service? If so, how much?

Q2. Do they have any kids program for age of 2 or 2.5?

Q3. Is their kids area or play room full of toys? Big? Any Outdoor? 

Q4. Do they have any pools for potty trained kids?

Q5. Any other advance bookings we could do before boarding?

Q6. Do we need to pre-book highchair for the dinning rooms before boarding?

that's great to know. thanks, everyone.

Hi All,

We have booked a cruise with NCL from Sydney. We're bringing a baby but NCL does not provide any service (too young to enrol any program) or baby food.

How do we tip? We never sail with NCL before? Do they automatically take the tips from our account? Can we opt out the tipping structure and tip directly to the room attendant who actually provides service to a baby? I can't think of anything else that NCL provides to a baby but we're paying for a full ticket for a baby.

Thanks.

Thank you SO MUCH

Hi. We know very little about Australia. We plan to cruise in mid-December. Three families, one with a small baby.

1. How's weather and the water in mid-december? Is it good time to cruise?

2. Burnie vs. Hobart, which stop is better?

3. How is Norwegian Cruise? We have been taking tons of Celebrity and RCI. We don't know what to expect on NCL. How would you compare NCL and Costa, from 1-10?

Thanks so much.

that's great. thank you for the info. what type of shops that you were talking about?

Port of Call --- Warnemunde, Can I find a pharmacy or shop near the port? Our baby's formula is from Germany. I plan to get some baby formula and baby food when our ship stop at Warnemunde. Is there any pharmacy or shops WITHIN walking distance to the port? Thank you!

Hello All,

We're traveling with a baby from AMS to cruise port directly. Transfer is arranged by the ship. We need to pick up formula, diapers, baby food and some other items for our 14-day cruise on the way. I wasn't able to locate any info on the AMS airport website. If you know any shops inside of the airport, please share. Also, do you know it's possible to mail something in advance and collect it somewhere inside the airport?

Thank you very much.

What formula do you need? Maybe I can check around for you

You're super sweet. Thank you! The one we use is "HiPP HA 2" (Brand: HiPP, Type: Hypoallergenic, Stage 2).

Hi All, Thank you so very much for the suggestion. I contacted the stores that you mentioned at the airport and cruise terminal. Unfortunately, they don't sell the formula we need. I will keep looking. If you know any big chain "super market"/ pharmacy on our way from the airport to cruise terminal, please let us know.

Also, do you happen to know if any facility/office receives mail on our behalf? Our formula is from Europe and I can order them online...

Thank you!

Hi All, We will be traveling with a baby going straight from the airport to cruise terminal. It would be ideal if we don't have to pack all the formula and diaper in our luggage. Does anyone know if there's a shop at the Amsterdam Schiphol airport or cruise terminal sell baby formula and diapers?

If there's any advice on cruising with a baby, please share.

Thank you SO MUCH!
