@wallyj thank you for the response. The pics do not matter, I was really interested in the information you provided about the menus. Thank you for letting me know that they are still offering the traditional princess favorites. I am hopeful they will be on the menu on the crown in November, as I always like the option of a Caesar salad, or the French onion soup every night. Wishing you a wonderful time sailing for the remainder of your cruise. Thanks, Ron

@wallyj could you post a few of the evening MDR menus. Just curious what they look like now. I have heard they do not have the old princess favorites and I have heard they still do have them. We are sailing on the crown R/T Hawaii in November and am hoping they still have the old menus on the Hawaiian cruises Thanks Ron

Ruby Princess

I have sailed several times from pier 27 in San Francisco, but never from pier 35. Since there are two ships in port the day we are embarking, we are scheduled to load at pier 35. Would like to know how luggage drop off and passenger drop off work at this pier. Looking at google maps it does not look like there is a drop off area, we will probably arrive by Uber and not sure how the drop off works. It looks like there may be some space out front but not sure if those will be reserved for buses. Thanks in advance for any info, wish we were embarking from 27 it is nice and has always been quick boarding

Looking for some advice if anybody has recently sailed from San Franciso and rented a scooter. We will be sailing in October on the Ruby. Looking at either Scootaround or Specialneedsatsea. If you have rented from either of these companies lately, I would love to hear your thoughts about them. Looking at past reviews, they are mainly on Florida cruises, and some were good and others bad. Would love to hear from anyone that has sailed out of San Francisco this year and rented a scooter,. if so which company, did you use: how was the experience, was it delivered to your cabin, any problems with it. This will be the first time we ever rented a scooter. We will be in a mini-suite, how hard was it to get into and out of the cabin. We will probably rent the standard or transportable model. Sorry for all the questions. Appreciate any feedback and help Thanks Ron

T&Atravel, just curious what you thought of the food overall? I’ve read a lot of reviews that the Horizon Court has greatly went downhill, just was curious of your thoughts having been recently on the ship. Hoping you had a great cruise

My apologies if this has already been asked, I did a search and could not find anything. Looking at staying in cabin E720 on the ruby princess for an upcoming cruise. This is one of the few covered mini suites. Just curious with it being the first one on the Aft end from the front, with what looks like a wall/partition on that side of the balcony. I am wondering with this sticking out as the first balcony versus having cabins next-door like I am used to being in the center of a row of balconies, if this will create a lot of wind noise in the cabin or a lot of wind on the balcony? Would be interested in hearing from anyone that has stayed in this cabin on the ruby are equivalent ships, what they thought about this cabin. If you have stayed in this cabin, When the view blocked lifeboats are other things when looking towards the front of the ship when at the balcony rail. Thank you everyone for your responses. Thanks Ron
