Rehabber Posted June 1, 2005 #1002 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Hello Sun Cruisers, It is great to see this is still alive and setting records for thread life. I keep it in my favorites and check in to see how the Sun is. I was introduced to CC on this ship. I think the orgininal posters were pretty funny and honest, that is what keeps it going. Still looking for our next cruise, keep up the great posts. Working hard, Rehabber:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also looking for our next cruise, but still don't have one booked. Can you believe it over 1000 posts on this thread and still going strong. Thanks to CruiserForLife for starting it and to all who are posting live from the Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host Anne Posted June 1, 2005 #1004 Share Posted June 1, 2005 I'm starting to think we may have to plan a "Live from the Sun Reunion Cruise" for everyone who has participated in this thread. Now that would be fun ;) We're starting to get ready for our Baltics cruise which is just around the corner. I can't believe we'll be back on a ship in a month. Can't wait. Greetings to all those sailing on Sun Princess....hope she is treating you well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceguy Posted June 1, 2005 #1005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 We were on the Sun from 8-18 April. As those that were with us recall, I had many problems with food, the waiter, head waiter, and maitre'd. Upon our return I wrote a detailed letter to Princess. Yesterday I received a short response from Princess Customer Service. It acknowledged I had a problem. They indicated they hoped I have better time next time on one of their ships. To me it was a disappointing response. It doesn't say what that are doing to correct the issues, so if I do take another cruise with them, I will not have the same food and food service issues.

m steve Posted June 1, 2005 #1006 Share Posted June 1, 2005 After so many unhappy cruisers as well as sick ones, why wou8ld anyone want to take another cruise on the Sun especially w/ 1000 other critics. I am sure that Princess wouldn't want that either. Of course they could have Capt. Qweeg sail the ship and and then have a crew of non-English speaking staff. That way you can jump ship at the first port and swim back to avoid illness, rudeness and their famous coffee!:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserforlife Posted June 1, 2005 Author #1007 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Morning all Sun cruisers (past,present,& future), Glad to see this thread has "sea legs" and still remains as popular today as it was when Host Anne,myself,and many others cruised back on 1/28 which does seem like forever in some ways and then because of things like this forum,it almost feels like we're still onboard. Anne, Great to hear about your cruise...we're extremely jealous but happy for you both.Have a great time and let us know all about it when you return. spaceguy, I know what you mean by Princess' rather clinical responses.I mailed them 2 letters just prior to our January sailing certified mail and I received two pretty typical "form" letters which didn't even touch upon my concerns.No worries as it turned out because everything was wonderful but I remember you having difficulties with your special diet. m steve, I'm not sure what to make of your comment.There were many happy campers on the Sun since we sailed her and there continue to be to this day.Our cruise (except for some rough seas and me getting a cold)was fantastic and I would surely return to the Sun or any of her Sun-class sisters without delay!Every cruiseship has some concerns but it is fact that the Sun is in remarkable shape for a 10-year old vessel that has seen hundreds of thousands of guests. Thanks to all that have contributed to this thread.It is also one of my favorites and usually is one of my first stops when I turn my computer on in the morning.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtjlr Posted June 1, 2005 #1008 Share Posted June 1, 2005 m Steve -- I am not sure either what you mean about so many unhappy Sun cruisers. If you have read through the posts on this thread, most everyone was very happy with their experience on the Sun. We had a great cruise in January and would gladly sail the Sun again at any time. Anne -- have a great cruise in the Baltics. Hope all is well with your family and Amanda's graduation this spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne & Andy.. have a great Baltic cruise! We have to wait until November to cruise again.. this time our first on HAL on the Oosterdam out of San Diego... in the meantime though we are taking an 18 day land tour of China in September.

zachnlucy Posted June 1, 2005 #1011 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Hi all. Can somebody tell me where the Sun docks in Vancouver? Is it Canada Place or that other one (sorry, can't remember the name)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len3 Posted June 2, 2005 #1013 Share Posted June 2, 2005 :confused: A question for those of you onboard currently.....can the Sun transfer my digital photos onto CD's? I have to be really sure of this. I'm sailing August 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDHOhio Posted June 2, 2005 #1014 Share Posted June 2, 2005 First post - have enjoyed reading so many varied opinions, so I figure I would finally post after 2 years. We (my wife and I) were on the May 16 southbound Sun Princess cruise in Alaska. Only disappointment really was Trevor Bradford (the CD) since we enjoyed Dan so much the year before. I heard from some of the crew that Dan is on the Tahitian Priness, but wasn't feeling the love out there. Hope I can contribute my Sun Princess experiences.

Trlbnd1 Posted June 2, 2005 #1015 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Thanks for keeping this post alive. We won't be on the Sun til April 17,2006. If anyone will be traveling on this date we have a roll call going on right now-hope to see some more sign up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to be really sure of this. I'm sailing August 1st. Len3, Almost 100% sure that this is a service Princess provides...I'm sure someone here will have the correct answer. JDHOhio, Thanks for joining in.How was the cruise otherwise?Was this your 2nd Sun cruise or were you on another Princess ship last year?Dan was the CD on our 1/28 sailing and everyone thought he was pretty funny.His family was with him and I'm pretty sure he left the ship when we got off on 2/7.He seemed to be soaking in all the sun he could on our last day in Princess Cays. Trlbnd1, I wouldn't place any bets against this thread still being alive when you sail next April!:rolleyes: Check back in again soon and please feel free to ask any questions you may have...there are many experienced Sun cruisers here. It's kinda fun to talk about your upcoming cruise everyday,isn't it?;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trlbnd1 Posted June 2, 2005 #1017 Share Posted June 2, 2005 cruiserforlife: It sure is fun checking in on the Sun and planning our cruise. I do have a question that came up on our roll call. Does Princess offer a CC'ers a meeting place for a gathering such as RCL does? Or does CC'ers just set up a meeting place themselves? Thanks for the response....

cozzello Posted June 2, 2005 #1018 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Hello fellow cruisers We leave in less than two weeks and are very excited to experience Alaska aboard the Sun. I was just wondering if anyone on board this week can tell us if they still are experiencing any of the virus or any code reds? Thanks to all who keep my anticipation rising. I will try to at least post once from the ship just to actually be LIVE FROM THE SUN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the response.... Trlbnd1, No,Princess doesn't have an organized meeting for CC'ers like RCL does. We were on the NOS in Sept. of 2003 and had a really fun meeting with 25+ CC'ers.You'll just have to plan your own...I would suggest the Riveria Bar before sailaway like Host Anne arranged for us...it is the perfect venue!;) Have a great cruise and please keep us posted...

Lindamalocup Posted June 3, 2005 #1023 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Wow I cannot belive this thread is still going strong! My DH and I were on the Feb27- March 9th sailing. We just loved the Sun P. We had Gavin as our CD on that sailing. I liked Gavin he was a funny guy and very friendly! We met alot of nice people and enjoyed the music especially Glen on the piano. I wonder if he is still there now? anyone know? We also met a nice waiter in the Pizzaria who had his wife and baby with him. He was so sweet. I liked the dining room food much better than buffet. We had PC dining and meet alot of people that way too, this was our 3rd Princess cruise too and one of my favorites! I the Sun was in good shape for its age. I also did the Grand P and loved the bigger ships. I would go on the Sun again anytime! I loved the islands we went too also especially St Lucia! loved the catamaran trip we took it was such a beautiful island! ok I just had to put my two cents in this time again. I did post awhile back and noticed this is still active! I guess i am trying to keep it alive too! Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserforlife Posted June 3, 2005 Author #1024 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Linda, You were on about a month after we got off,I remember you posting then. All those points you just brought up about your cruise are things I remember too,almost in ways like it was yesterday!;) Who knows...maybe we can keep this rolling till next Caribbean season and then maybe I'll just have to book the Sun so that I too can post.... ..."LIVE FROM THE SUN!!!":D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WASUP Posted June 3, 2005 #1025 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Weare on the Sun as we speak. we were told as we left Glacier Bay that we would be arriving in Skagway 5 hours late. We were told "operational procedure", not sure what that means. Has anyone heard of any issue with the Sun? we arrived on time today in Juneau. we were traveling slow in our opinion, is that normal thru the inside passage?
