As mentioned above, we prefer to know the exact location of our cabin when booking.

FWIW, recent sales have not been anything to get excited about. We have found that the best fares have been when the specific itinerary is released.

Their soap is horrible. We always bring our own. And, our own soap dish for the sink and shower.

We have Global Entry and my DW has had no issues with her first and middle names showing as one.

What a bumner about the service you received. Sounds like this crew is a bit burned-out? As far as towel animals, they are still alive on Princess. Below are photos from a recent Sapphire cruise in South America

The price of the large two-pack at Costco is almost the same as one regular sized bottle at the market. 🤷‍♂️

@Lady Arwen We are also pescatarians (for 40 yrs now) and I like Cholula because it is not very hot, but adds flavor to bland food. My DW is not a fan of any hot sauce and does not even add pepper to her food.

If you go thru my "Live" from Nov/Dec on the Enchanted, I posted the menus daily. You can find a link to the "Live" below by expanding my signature.

Here you go, all purchased via Amazon. The third connector charges your device while streaming.

I'm not sure how to "Google Cast." But you can use the HDMI port on the back of the TV to stream from your device.

We have had the same experience with the crew. They once had me try one that almost had me running to the Medical Center. ¡Muy Caliente! 🥵

@Thrak I've tried them all, my favorite is the Original and the Chipotle. I agree, first world problems! 😊

That might have been the bottle I left behind! 🤪 I have yet to be on a ship that had it stocked onboard.

Since we always have the same MDR servers, we leave our Cholula with them at their service station. It is always on our table when we sit down for dinner! I forgot to add, we bring the large bottles that are sold at Costco as we always end up sharing it with our servers. They love it too!

Safe travels home! Looking forward to meeting you on our Dec/Jan Majestic cruise!

See the below description from the Princess web site: Reserve Collection Cabana Enjoy breathtaking views and in this resort-style stateroom that offers a balcony and a private cabana, an extra-large outdoor lounge space. The outdoor Cabana features unique outdoor furniture and an extra-large private outdoor lounge space. Unwind inside with a separate sitting area with sofa bed, and premium bathroom amenities. In addition, you will receive reserve collection upgrades, including access to the Reserve Collection Restaurant.

It does not matter where in the world we are cruising, we never leave home without our Cholula! 🌶

Thanks for the journey! Have a safe "ride" home!

We took lots of photos and video on the Enchanted's 360 this past November.

We find mini-suites to be much more than a glorified balcony cabin. Much bigger bathroom, with a bathtub (new Sun class ship mini-suites will not have the bathtub). Also, large couch, 2 TV's and much larger area space. And, a lot less expensive than a suite!

Thank you for taking the time for this "Live" thread. We have friends onboard for their first Viking cruise and will be following along. We are considering our first Viking Ocean cruise.

FWIW, the bone-headed VP that convinced others to butcher the ship was fired about a year after the butchering. The original plan was to do the same thing to the Coral. The result was so bad that they nixed that idea and sent the VP packing!

Thank you for your detailed review! We have been tempted to try them as we have several ex-Princess crew member friends that are now at Virgin. We get regular messages from them to come try it out. Since we like to book cruises of 30+ days, we are waiting for them to extend their itineraries in length and locations. 🙂

No need for a pump/stopper with us, once opened it is all happily consumed! 🤪

This always brings a couple of tears... 😪
