cruiseclues Posted November 15, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Has anyone had any problems with the food or music recently with the Coral Princess going thru the Panama Canal? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muscleshop Posted November 15, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2013 My food normally makes a "num num num" sound... but not sure if that is a problem or not? lol I'll await other, serious, responses, as we'll be on the Coral soon, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseclues Posted November 15, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I hope you're not telling me that wasn't a serious response. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esprit Posted November 15, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2013 When going through the Panama canal avoid the food as you'll miss seeing the locks. However standing on the open decks to view the locks means you may have a problem hearing any music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted November 15, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 15, 2013 My friends were on the Coral last month. They said they enjoyed the food. They did not mention the music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coveguy4 Posted November 15, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Last April I was on the Coral thru the Canal and food was great, music very good in most venues, AND not a drop of rain.......Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homosassa Posted November 15, 2013 #8 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I was on the 10/24 Coral Princess sailing. The food and music were great. Don't miss the production show "On the Bayou" - it is the best one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorisis Posted November 16, 2013 #10 Share Posted November 16, 2013 If Marizio is playing in Crooners, don't miss him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrottdizes Posted November 16, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Just got off yesterday (11-15-13) had a wonderful time Enjoyed the food and the music! Of course I wasn't eating or listening to music while actually going through the locks.........didn't want to miss that experience. The weather while going through the locks was sunny with some clouds.......later during the day, there was a short downpour. Only disappointment during the cruise was that the Costa Rica stop was cancelled due to a general strike in that country :( .........but things like that happen and you just make the best of it.

simbasmom Posted November 16, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 16, 2013 If you want to go thru the Panama Canal right now, you'll have a better chance on the Island Princess. And they changed Music Directors a few days ago, so things might have changed. But I agree-the "On the Bayou" show is outstanding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiseclues Posted November 17, 2013 Author #15 Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) Anyone have any detailed comments about the food...sounds like the music was okay. Edited November 17, 2013 by cruiseclues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrottdizes Posted November 17, 2013 #16 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Did they substitute the Costa Rica stop? Yes they did..........they tacked on 'Princess Cay'. Stopped there on the last day of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simbasmom Posted November 17, 2013 #17 Share Posted November 17, 2013 What do you mean? Only that the Island Princess right now has slightly more trips thru than the Coral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muscleshop Posted November 17, 2013 #18 Share Posted November 17, 2013 The general strike in Limon was only for one day, it just happened to be on the day the ship was supposed to dock there (sure it was intentional on the part of the strikers to inflict as much chaos as possible). The only group still rumbling about continuing a strike in the near future is the port workers, which would directly affect the cruises, but as of now..they aren't on strike.
