Thank you! I definitely didn’t know that.

If you have to cancel and do not have insurance call celebrity to ask to move to another cruise. Many times this can be done with only a $100 per person fee.

Any decent shopping area?

So I guess the decision is whether to park on the 5th level so you don’t have to wait for elevators down with your luggage or park on the lower level so you don’t have to wait in the traffic!!!

Perfect! Thank you for your responses! We always park at the terminal even though it’s more expensive. We like the convenience. I just had no idea where the parking is for anything other than Celebrity. Thanks again!

We are on our first Princess cruise in November on Sun. What terminal does Princess use in Port Everglades and is there a parking garage close enough to walk? Appreciate any info.

If you booked through a TA contact them to be sure they put in the drink package. This happened to us before and that was the issue.

That was our reasoning, to be able to be in CT in the evening and following morning as I have read that is when the crowds lessen. Plus it will be nice to not rush too much.

Thank you! Good advice!

So excited to see this part of your journey. Our cruise next year has an overnight in La Spezia and we were thinking of spending the night in CT. I think you have helped me make that decision, hopefully October will be cooler for our hiking! Enjoy the rest of your journey. It looks fabulous!

When I did it I had already called princess and had all of our 4 cabins linked so I’m not sure if you need to do this first. When making the dinner reservation you choose the date, time, location and then you will see your icon with a pencil icon next to it. Click on the pencil icon and you should be able to add people to the reservation.

Thank you for the responses. I am sure an email can get lost or forgotten to be sent by princess so I will be a mom and monitor the situation! 🤣🤣

What deck is this? Looks so comfortable

Does Princess email a reminder/invoice that final payment is due? We used our TA but my son booked direct with princess.

We are a party of 8 which is the max for the cabana. I’m not sure if it would be too crowded, the cabana looks small. Also some reviews state the water isn’t very nice. If anyone has done this I’d appreciate any insight.

Beyond dining is anytime so you can walk up but there may be a short wait. We were on in January and did have reservations but the only time we saw anyone wait was the first night. We didn’t dine that early, ours was 7:30 but I don’t think it will be any issue for 2 people.

Neither. It’s my first cruise with princess. That’s why we had to wait until final payment to book.

I have been one of the passengers complaining about dining reservations so I wanted to report back. We just paid our cruise in full through our TA on Thursday. Friday the TA told us it was sent to princess but I still was unable to make reservations. I chatted with princess today and they told me it can take time to be processed and to keep checking. I just now was able to make reservations for all 8 of us on our Sun cruise in November. One cabin has not paid in full but I had no issue including them.

It depends on the ship. 6 night cruise if it’s an E class ship, 8 night cruise if it’s an S class ship. We personally want a balcony so we wouldn’t do AQ on an E class.

Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us. Your descriptions and photos were wonderful. It looked like an amazing trip.

Do you think it’s worth spending the day in Portofino?

We are also new to Princess from Celebrity, sailing this November on Sun. One difference to be aware of, which I absolutely hate, is that you can’t book dinner reservations unless you have status or are paid in full. I didn’t know that before we booked and normally I wouldn’t be concerned but we are a party of 8 celebrating a big birthday. So hoping it works out! Just something to know.

It looks like this is the cabin I booked. We are in 1676 SV on Silhouette on our first b2b over NYE. Very excited!

Wonderful! Thank you! We are in the same location on deck 11. The only other SV we had was Beyond which was huge! Very much looking forward to it.

Are the SV on S class bigger than the regular verandas?
