Thank you all for your replies and valuable experiences. I'm going to digest everybody's advice and do additional research. I may have some follow up questions and I greatly appreciate your thoughts and time.

Hello, I'm looking to book a cruise in 2025 (New to cruising) on the Royal Princess and have some questions below. Can you please give me your thoughts? I've read that the Royal Princess doesn't have good viewing areas. When going through Glacier Bay where on the ship is the best viewing area? And If I decide to get a room with a balcony, which decks, aft, mid, or forward would be best to view Glacier Bay? If I were to book early for the cruise on the Princess website and they have offers after I book, for example on board credit or anything else, would Princess be willing to adjust my reservation to include future offers since I'm booked early? Is WIFI worth it or is the signal spotty on the ship? When should I reserve excursions. Should I do third party or through Princess? Any good websites for excursions for third party excursions?
