Currently the ship is showing "Sold Out" until the March 29th sailing. Not a good sign. π€·ββοΈ -
Sun Princess Inaugural 2/8/24 cruise canceled
LACruiser88 replied to Host CJSKIDS's topic in Princess Cruises
I had been hearing "rumblings" from a few of our Princess inside sources that this was coming. They just might cancel a couple more??? -

Enchantment Starlink/Internet speeds 2024
LACruiser88 replied to earthdog's topic in Princess Cruises
The below speed test was from our recent 26 days on the Enchanted Princess, Nov/Dec. They do have Starlink and the speeds shown below were consistent throughout our cruise, Med/TA. To see more from our cruise, expand my signature to see a link to our "Live" thread of the cruise. -
Our cruise happy place! π

We were just on the Enchanted for 26 days in Nov/Dec. We had a great time and found the dinners in the Reserve Collection dining room to be excellent. We also dined at The Catch (4x), Sabatini's (2x) , and at O'Malleys. These dinners were also great, as was the service in all of our dining venues. We also experienced 360, which was fantastic. We rarely go to the buffet and have not attended any shows in quite sometime. Enjoy your cruise!

At home our TV provider is Spectrum. Thru the Spectrum app on our tablet, we have streamed our local news channels and our Laker games via the stateroom TV.

We also saw a change to our September 2025, b3b, 50-day cruise on the Sun Princess. We were originally embarking in Civitavecchia, but that was changed to embark in Naples instead. Naples does not work for our pre-cruise plans. We canceled the 14-day segment and will now embark in Barcelona, on Oct 11th, for a 36-day b2b. Lots of changes to voyages that are far out on the calendar. π€·ββοΈ

Actually, it is called Reserve Collection. The word "class" has been dropped. π€·ββοΈ

Sun Princess - dining venues. and jigsaw cabin design.
LACruiser88 replied to Wishing on a star's topic in Princess Cruises
We are not booked on the Sun Princess until October of 2025, specifically because of all of the unknowns with the new configuration of this ship. We are currently booked in a Reserve Collection mini-suite on deck 12. Real-life reviews will determine if we keep this booking or stay with our known "old" ships in the fleet. π€·ββοΈ -
This was one of our bucket list itineraries and we completed it on the Star Princess in 2011. We were also on the Sapphire this past March, Buenos Aires to LA. Great ports and tons of wildlife to see in many ports. We love the itinerary so much we will be on the Dec 1st, 51 day voyage, LA to Ft Lauderdale, on the Majestic. Enjoy!!! π§ππ³π¦ππ¦π¦

A few notes about the Discovery Jan 6-13
LACruiser88 replied to Cruise Raider's topic in Princess Cruises
We would be curious as to the amount of discount? On our recent TA on the Enchanted, the "discounted" cruises were 20% to 30% off. That is still a good deal, but not the 50% off that was available earlier last year. Thank you for updating us on your voyage! π -
