We are on the same cruise (if its the Caribbean Princess )
On the arrive can app under Port of Entry it says ....this is the first port of arrival in Canada.
So for us that would be Saint John New Brunswick I believe.
Yes I believe you are correct with not being able to put in the embarkation date until 72 hrs before.

- Here is a link below from another CC member with the price for the wine package. In your
- cruise account under onboard reservations, you can find the alcoholic
- beverage package & price , which can be pre purchased before or purchased on boarding day .

I had already benefited from a $1380 CA price drop before final payment on our Feb. cruise but on Christmas eve day I noticed another large price drop , $1300 CA.
As it was after final payment date I didn't hold out much hope in Princess honouring that. I though what the heck
can't hurt to try so gave my TA a call and she put in a request, saying nothing would be answered until Dec. 27 after
the holiday. TA mentioned it was a long shot . She checked with them on the 27th and yes they honoured the price drop , same cabin no problems ! She said sometimes its just who you end up with on the other end, I guess we got lucky on that one.
I was told it could take up to 2 weeks for refund to show up on credit card.....it was in my account by the end of the day.
A very nice late Christmas present .

We have a cruise out of San Pedro in February and chose to fly into Long Beach airport.
Just liked the smaller size and ease of navigating. We are also staying at a hotel in Long Beach so made sense for us .
We are flying Southwest from Spokane and we were able to find suitable times and prices for our journey both ways.

We have had a good experience with anytime dining. Never made a reservation as that kinda went against anytime dining for us. Didn't usually have to wait very long and if we did we were given a pager and went and got a drink somewhere till we were beeped. We were open to a shared table so we met new people every night which we really enjoy. For us it worked, might not be for everyone.

Hi , we stayed in cabin e736 on Coral princess sister ship of Island, for a Panama Canal cruise. It looks like the deck plans for 8 are the same on each ship. We loved this cabin. The view is great as the railing curves a bit to the back giving you extra view behind also. It was also covered. Had no problem with movement , but we are not prone to sea sickness or light sleepers. Would definitely book again. At little extra walking but was great to wear off all the food and bevies !
If I can figure out how to put a pic up I will.

We were just on in March.....I thought the hair dryer was fine .
But mine at home is not a salon brand ...just a normal smaller one
so thats what I'm used to and hair is not to thick.
It didn't matter much anyways because as soon as I stepped
outside with the humidity ..any work done on the hair was for nothing
as it took on a life of its own!
We were on a cruise through the panama canal, so you will have
better luck going to Alaska :p

We just got off the Coral....
My favourite spot would have to be the time
we spent lounging on the promenade deck just
staring out into the ocean. It was never busy and just
so peaceful !

Have just returned from a cruise partial panama and stayed
in E736 aft on Coral.
We loved this cabin !! Its just your normal balcony cabin but really
enjoyed the deck and the extra view you get from the curved balcony .
It really was a great viewing area for going through the canal, plus
we had easy access to the back deck. We spent many hours just
sitting out and just enjoying the view..i've always enjoyed the sounds from
the wake at the back.
Did not find the little vibration we felt or noise to be bothersome
at all. Never kept us awake at night,and if there was extra movement
at the back it lulled us into sleep. We had quite a few
really wavy days...where the decks and pools were closed so yes
there was movement but there was all over.
Did not hear any noise of the door slamming on way out to
back deck as it wasn't used much by others .
We liked being at the very aft as we were forced to walk a lot...but
after a few days found our way around. We were port side so always
looked for the carpet with the red border to get our bearings.
Starboard has the blue border.
Easy acces to the Atrium.....just keep walking down the hallway past the
first set of elevators..keep walking to the second make a left through card
room (right through library if on starboard side)..here you will find access
to dining rooms and some bar areas, & internet cafe ect.
Would pick this cabin again in a minute if going on coral again !

We have a reservation for cabin C727 on CORAL, its the last one, at the back of the ship and I am wondering if this is a good idea.....any input
I was wondering the same myself....we are booked
into E736 , last cabin port side on Emerald deck. We don't sail
till Feb. 27 so if you sail after that I can give you an update.
Looking forward to the extra view we get being on the corner

Did you happen to put your name in the princess contest that was featured online? This happened to a lot of people , including myself ..where we had the same issues as you. I just called princess and they had it reset and a new password emailed. If that is not the case for you ...then others Im sure will help you.

Great review....looking forward to the pictures...we will be sailing on the Coral in February.
Just one question......do you know if they are offering a wine package on board? I read in older posts they did at one point and you had to sign up for it in the buffet area on day one, but not sure if it is still available.

Will be disembarking Coral Princess Feb. 27 in Fort Lauderdale on a Monday. Looks like she is the only one in port...we are looking at a flight to Freeport Bahamas at 12:30 pm from FLL. Never been to FLL airport or the cruise port but it sounds like ample time. Being an international flight, will this time be a comfortable option ? Wont have much luggage so if needed we can do our own carry off. I suppose the other thing we have going for us is we are flying bahamas air....and they are known for delays . Anyone done a flight to Freeport Bahamas from FLL? Thanks for any info

This I found helpful....google..."Covered balcony guide/Island princess West coast to FLL "

Under port of entry , in the empty box tap scroll down arrow. Then in the search area type in Saint John and there should be a few saint johns show up . One of them being Saint John Marine Terminal (New Brunswick). This is the one I put in as the port of entry .....hope its correct haha.
