I feel the same. I have much affection for the Golden (sold) and the Grand, even the Crown. To us, this is Princess. I too wish that she had better maintained. We loved the Grand when sailing a long itinerary Alaska cruise in September 2022 out of Vancouver. We were about 5-6 hours late leaving port due to an engine issue. We left the dock (barely) and then backed right back in. Thankfully, it was fixed but the itinerary was changed and we missed a port; Icy Strait I think. The Captain was a sweetheart and EVERY PERSON (not cabin), received $125.00 in OBC.
