We just did a 14 consisting of 2 - 7 day B2B in the Caribbean on the Caribbean. I wouldn't do it again since the entertainment repeats in the second week and 85% of the passengers change for week 2. We had to leave the ship at the home port - FLL - for 6 hours during turnover. They did take us to a mall. Yes, we did get 2 credits for the cruise.

CP = Caribbean Princess.

We’re in the CP now. Smell is generally forward, starboard side on deck 7.

On the Caribbean Princess 14 day. Laundromat has been closed for the cruise. They claim noro is passed there. BS. We didn’t pack for the whole cruise. We have undies hanging out our balcony. No one know anything.

We’re this is on this ship doing an 14 day E/W Caribbean. Apparently the virus has reared up again on this ship. All food in the buffet has to be served to you and they closed the laundries today. We generally have to find our own water in the buffet area. 72 hours for them to do your dirty clothes will be difficult on a short cruise. It appears everything from entertainment to food to cabin service has been chopped. This is day 4 and we finally met our room steward. This is our 5th Princess cruise - the second in 5 months and it’s hard to believe this is the same line. We’re probably moving on to a different line. Too bad. We liked the old Princess.

Happened to me today. I don’t mind as the agent speaks English and has been my contact for a number of years.

We booked Fantastica. We don’t need a lot of frills on a cruise.

We have 5 cruises with Princess and 1 with Royal. We were looking for a fall 2023 New England trip to see the colors. Princess has gotten pricey lately and MSC had a good promo. I called in and spoke to an agent who was in the US and booked the 11 day next October. I got the Veteran discount and they matched my Princess status all while I was on the phone. (I had my DD214 on my phone so easy to email) Very smooth transaction. We just got off a Mexican Riviera cruise on Princess where the ship was just under half full. Food was good as was the entertainment. It was a great trip that required a port change due to a hurricane. No complaints at all - only pricey. Time will tell. Mike

I spoke to a rep from Carnival today who confirmed this. Mike
