Why would booking an inexpensive cabin, on any line, make you feel inferior? That's an odd concept to me.. interesting. So, you won't be sailing Princess anymore, given their "ship within a ship" concept? Particularly on Sphere class ships? I mean, Princess has had spaces you can't enter unless you book that specific cabin type for decades, including specialty breakfast, Suite Lounge, Reserve dining, and now Sanctuary Collection with access to Sanctuary and pool on Sphere class only for certain cabins , reserved theater seating for Sky Suites, and those who book the Premier Cruise Package - I guess that rules out Princess for you in the future.... And Royal, of course, with the Suite class spaces and inclusions, or exclusions of not in those cabins.. oh wait, they e been doing that for decades + also, and somehow you've found it okay there.. but yeah, those in YC are all pretentious..😆 MSc includes all the same things for everyone: shows, dining, music, pools, entertainment, and so forth..the newer ships with Yacht Club add some private spaces, which Princess, Royal, Celebrity, Cunard, NCL, heck even Carnival, etc have also...go figure.. Must be getting difficult to find a line that doesn't add extra perks for those who spend more... Haven't ever once felt like second class citizen when sailing MSc in a "lower" class cheapest cabin nor felt as if those in YC were "pretentious" any more than those Elites who make a big deal of it on Princess, or those who practice their reverse pretentiousness pointing out how unpretentious they are, by staying as cheap as possible... I mean, if you can pick out someone else's cruise line or cabin type by their behavior, I guess the pretentions are pretty strong... More power to you and thanks for your brag on how very cheaply you've seen the world. Absolutely nothing pretentious about that, lol.. You don't know unless you try, but you've already decided - that's cool too.. more space for the rest of us, in both the cheap and expensive seats! Happy sails...

Of course. If sailing solo in a cabin, you can buy yourself either package. Why would you think any differently?.

Yes As noted, the Reserve and Signature dining rooms have been combined, and are now the Sanctuary dining room, aft deck 8. Assuming you booked your Reserve Cabana Deck Mini prior to April 23, 2024 - then you're grandfathered in with your Reserve dining and it's in the Sanctuary dining room.

Waxh individual person with the Plus Plan is one device at a time. If three people in the cabin have Plus, that's three logins, ie one each or however they want to share it, per one device per login at a time.. Can't imagine why you'd think it was one oer cabin, even with 1 people in a cabin having Plus, which includes one device WiFi Internet per package..

She's out! She had some sailaway fanfare - she was held in the channel as a 10-15 minutes dronw show was performed overhead - pretty cool, from the pics and videos I've seen so far . Here's a few...pics by Bill Raffel on FB..

Yup, exactly what it means. You can share it with anyone you want..it's just one device at a time...

PS: and FWIW, all internet on Princess is unlimited,whether it's as part of a bundled Cruise Package or purchased as a standalone option.. Princess doesn't have metered by the minute internet and hasn't since before the pandemic...

Yes. It's unlimited.. Princess hasn't had metered aka by the minute internet since pre - covid.

People may/would pay for an individual beverage package on Princess because Princess does not require all passengers/all adults to have a beverage package or none can, unlike most lines - MSc included... So, for those who have mixed people who don't drink, one could buy the beverage package.of choice, make their personal decision on paying crew appreciation at suggested amounts or not, and share 1 WiFi package (or no Wi-Fi package, or buy their discounted package due to loyalty status). and come out ahead of buying two Plus or two Premier packages..

As you've never cruised - were you under the impression that if you didn't buy a package like this,.you'd have nowhere to eat? Or be relegated to a buffet only?. The main dining room is quite good, ser es multi -course meals with multiple different options nightly.. There's also included a full buffet with multiple options that changes daily, themed nights with special inclusions, and open 16 hours a day. Included also is the International Cafe with smaller lighter bites 24 hours. Along with the Lido deck options of the grill, with grilled to order chicken, burgers, and such, Plus a pizza outlet with fresh pizza - 11-10. The specialty restaurants are a smallish step up from the main dining room, but not enough to waste $90 pp a day on if you don't drink, aren't bothered with Wi-Fi, etc- all the other parts of the package.... You can pay the cover charge individually, it'll be $53 pp to dine at either Crown or Sabatini's.... You'd have a LOT of $$$ going that route, particularly if the other components are worthless to you..

Caribbean Princess isn't changing any venues or names or locations of venues..

MIA and FLL never actually closed. .they had delays and cancellations and also flights that went as scheduled.....

Yes, 3 and 4 night cruises on any lines are essentially booze cruises..doesn't matter what line you're on. The 4 nighters in Princess back in 2022 in the Caribbean were wild - you almost wouldn't recognize the line at all - dance club and atrium dancing til 4 in the morning, bars packed, pool packed, etc. Loads of fun, if you were looking to blow off steam! We're on our MSc again next week from Miami (we were aboard 4 weeks ago also) cu, seriously, for $700, we have a balcony, full drink package, WiFi and gratuities all covered. What not to love? Visit their absolutely stunning private island - which is actually an island, not just an area of it like Princess Cays. Stunning beaches, Crystal water, beach party, great food, docked - so no tender lines, loads of shade, etc. gonna be loads of fun again. And on another at the end of November, this time a 7 night out of Martinique - the e got great Caribbean itineraries out of there.... Also a huge fan of the diversity aboard - so much more diverse in demographics than virtually any other line, especially the mainstream ones.. the wide wide variety of cultures, languages, ethnicities is a huge plus in my book... We w always had great service, whether rin Bella or Yacht Club.... And the ships are stunning, staff has always been helpful and friendly, and overall, good to great food .the pizza - hands down, beats everyone! The breakfast pizza is fab! Overall - they're a dead tie with Princess for us. itinerary and pricing make the decision....and its really jard to beat MSc, even their Yacht Club is fantastically priced for what you get.... Enjoy your sailings!

On CB, you have two specialty: Crown and Sabatini's..Crown is a steakhouse, Sabatini's, an Italian options. They do hold slots for onboard reservations.. You also have unlimited casual dining..and CB is only one of two restaurants in the fleet with Planks and Steamers, aka BBQ and Seafood... They're both pretty darn good - and only dinner.... You can make reservations only aboard... There's also Vines, with a very good charcuterie option... Delish with that afternoon wine... They do hold specialty spots for onboard reservations - not everything is fully booked in advance.. It's unfortunate you didn't research what specialty dining was aboard, it does sound like you were surprised to find there's only two options..... Hopefully, the other aspects of the package also help with your enjoyment with the unlimited drinks, unlimited photos, Princess Prizes, unlimited premium desserts and exercise classes, unlimited casual dining, reserved seating for production shows (super handy on short packed cruises!!), and so forth .. I hope you enjoy..

The ship will be decorated - pumpkins carved and displayed in the atrium area, cobwebs, fake spiders, etc all around. Most forward facing staff will be in some level of costume from all out to a little face paint or a mask, including dining, bartenders, all the cruise staff, etc. There is trick or treating for the kids around the shops, costume parade, costume contest, deck party weather permitting and atrium party. Special spooky sounding cocktails.. And guests go for it too - don't hesitate to dress up. The vast majority of guests will make some level of effort and many go all out. I've seen cereal killers, group costumes, maitre'd and champagne waterfall, dinosaurs, trolls, gladiators, chefs, Waldo, mice, cats, bats, vampires, princesses, princes, courtiers, Cleopatra, Egyptians, priests, June, Skywalker,band many more. Lots of people decorate their doors also... It's loads of fun.. enjoy!

Considering Plus (nor Premier) covers either, is expect it to be added..

As of 11:20am EDT, Port Everglades is open for both land and water side operations.. And Sun is on the schedule for Oct 11 . Terminal 2.

Princess Standard is pricing without the Plus or Premier Cruise Package fare at booking.

They're covered by the decks further above, not the one immediately above... Unlike Dolphin deck cabin on Grand Class ships, which are fully and completely uncovered by any deck at all Coral and Island aren't tiered/wedding cake style. They bump in and out but the alternating decks are covered by the one 2 above ..

Have sailed solo several times since upgrade bidding has begun, and have been offered the chance to bid on every one of them. Inside to OV, bid $10, for it, total cost, $20. Bargain, to say the least. Another, inside to OV, minimum was higher, $100 and I didn't bother bidding. If you're good with an inside, go for it. Lots of lovely outdoor space to enjoy free if charge. And if there's an offer to bid (almost certainly, unless you book through that big box store agency), you can decide then...

Too early for any 10/11 updates. Unless the port is completely and totally destroyed, there shouldn't be any affect on Oct 14.

That's how it works With medallion in hand, you go to the Green Lane No medallion in hand, blue lane.

Coral (and Island) are not tiered aka wedding cake style like Grand Class ships aka Ruby. Your balcony should be fully covered.

No, it doesn't mean that at all. You're all set. The app gets extra glitchy within a day or two of sailing. You're all set, no problem, head to port and enjoy.
