@sid_9169The fish tacos look amazing! I've been wanting to try Diego's for years, but we always get lazy and just head to Ernesto's...can't beat the location.

Yep. Unfortunately skin sags and fashion changes.

@Nicole&Pete I'm on the same cruise as you and I'm not seeing it in Journeyview. Naturally, since by chande I cobbled together an outfit 😞 Oh well, it wasn't formal, just a long white skirt and shirt and gold sandals.

@Hogladyrider I'm with you. VV seems gimmicky to me, and I've yet to read a review or seen pics that change my mind. Good thing we don't all like/dislike the same thing 🙂

I have a very hard time walking slow, drives me crazy to walk behind poky puppies. I get it, you walk slow but can your group move to the side so I can get by?

Great trip report, all of you looked like you were having a wonderful time.

Looking forward to this. Hallelujah for end of school year from one educator to another.

I use my Cheers package to buy a couple of sugar free energy drinks to keep in the frig. I'm normally up at 4 so those hold me over until Java Blue opens.

Got a great deal on an S5 but would like to know exactly what I’m buying. The pictures I’ve seen are from Island and look very dated. I know it’s an old ship but…

I've never understood people bothering the stewards when they're working their behinds off getting the cabins ready. I give my bags to a porter, tip well, and get on the ship w/ a fanny pack because I don't want to carry anything. I'm a tall woman, trust me, if my bags were lost I couldn't replace clothing from the ship shops or a port unless it was a cruise to Norway or Iceland. Be kind. If you don't want to carry your stuff around don't, but don't think it is ok to make the steward's job harder. It isn't.

I have no intentions of paying extra for the Sanctuary, but Princess really should make these spots available on the cruise planner to make it more equitable. I also wish they'd do the same with Chef's Table, wine dinners, etc...

We're booked for the Buenos Aires to Santiago section and very much looking forward to it. So dumb, in my euphoria to buy airfare booked flights arriving day of, w/ a layover time in Miami of 40 minutes 😞 Will need to change that. @taznremmy it appears we are the only tribe members...so far.

Thank-you for the video, I am now planning to do this on our next RC cruise.

I love inside cabins, and yes, have cruised in balconies, full suite, and mini-suite so know what I'm missing. I consider it like purchasing real estate. The smart buyer buys the cheapest house in the best neighborhood they can afford.

Thank-you @ceilidh1 Great balanced review.

Congratulations!

Thank-you @Astromaid and @Momma1980

Great review, looking forward to the rest. Thank-you. What did you think of the Pride? I’m also a fan of quiet places and would like to book the Pride for the itineraries.

I'll second the CCL special needs department. We cruised with 32 year old autistic DS last summer and the team was beyond wonderful. They whisked us on board, had a perfect table for us in the dining room, and when the cruise was over walked us off the ship and to the customs desk. We absolutely had better service on this cruise then a Star class cruise on RCL in November. The RCL service was very good and we would have been impressed had we not experienced the Carnival cruise four months previously. Just a thought for next time, Princess has a medallion system which enables you to track any of your party on the ship. If DS likes cruising you may want to try that next time. Don't be afraid to ask for what you need, I've found that cruiselines are very disabled friendly and they will do what they can to make your trip enjoyable.

5 day cruises? Not what I was hoping for.

The newest Kellerman isn't as good as his earlier ones. I read it last week and had to push myself to finish it because I couldn't get invested in the plot or characters. There's only so many times I can read about Milo's poor clothing choices, how cute Blanche is, etc... And the plot made no sense. Agree about the Prey books, love them. Also Will Trent series, sorry haven't read the whole thread so don't know if these have been mentioned.

Monday night. The mdr table I was assigned to was in the path towards Chef’s Table so each night we’d see the attendees group past.

Chef’s Table occurred several times during my Panorama 2/18-2/25 cruise. BTW, totally worth the money, I will definitely do this again.

Gross. We don’t have this on our Princess Plus and no loss. Whatever happened to a reasonable portion of a high quality dessert?

With the premium beverage package you can purchase Starbucks, and yes, there is one on the Sun.
