I would like to see them bring back the service and meal quality they had 15 years ago. That means hiring the same amount of service staff they had then.

 

More Broadway shows and better entertainment for the theaters. I would like more that just magicians and comedy acts.

Please, Princess add sofa or love seat area to cabins in all categories like HAL, Carnival, etc. 1 chair or sitting on the bed is not comfortable. We have to book mini-suites plus to get a sitting area that is not on the bed.

 

 

Yes to this!! Has stopped us from considering Princess unless mini suites are close in price to standard balconies. Maybe do away with the desk.

 

Better internet.

 

More connecting balcony cabins for families who need more than four beds and want to stick together

I was chatting with my coffee shop buddy the other day, and he thought it would be great if Princess had a 14-day Alaska roundtripper out of Los Angeles. I immediately agreed.

 

A 10-day roundtripper to the Pacific Northwest would be good, too.

 

Way back in 2007, Celebrity had an Alaskan cruise from LA. Great for us as we got to visit more ports.

1) spread the good meals between the two formal nights. There was nothing good on captain's night and almost all best meals on the second.

2) too many evening activities happening at the same time.

Years ago, probably more than 10, there was a hand written menu board as you you entered the lunch buffet. It did not list all the dishes but more the daily specials and luncheon themes. It made it much easier to get what you wanted instead of stumbling across it with your plate nearly full of items that were OK but less desirable.

 

I end up prowling the buffet before I even pick up a plate. This is not so much an issue with the smaller ships but on the Regal, it is a major expedition.

 

Please bring back the menu board or use Princess@Sea for the information.

 

Using Princess@Sea to post the regular menus would also be appreciated. It should not be that hard to put up a pdf of the menu.

I wish the art auction coordinator and CD would consult. The art auctions were being set up in the same lounge where trivia was held and people had to fight to get around easel set ups. Meanwhile, other places were empty.

I wish Princess would make the search for a HC cabin easier. On the RCCL website HC is an option at the beginning of a search. Only HC cabins are shown and in all categories. It makes the search much less time consuming and less frustrating.

To add to my last post. Some new east ports would be great. Baltimore, port Canaveral ( Kennedy space center and Orlando ), Key West and soon Havana Cuba.

 

Princess could also consider additional 6, 8 or 9 day cruise for us more time restrained cruiser. Some times difficult to 10 or more days off while still engaged in our working careers.

 

Over all have always enjoyed my princess times.

I wish Princess would "fix" their website!

 

It's Not Working properly for awhile now! Still... today Nov 19/15 when you access the cruise info to book... the info is all distorted when you want to pick a cabin. It only shows cabins in the aft available...when in fact there are many other options. My travel agent had no trouble seeing the mid and forward available cabins on her hook up but they must use a different link then us. Something is Not Right?? There has been many comments here on CC about the Princess website not working properly so I know it's not just my computer.

 

The Princess website has worked well in the past but for some reason it's not up to par right now. Princess...please fix your website.

Out of 25 Pages this is my favorite suggestion and something I did not think of because I had never been on Princess before this year.

 

It would be so nice to be able to see the dinner menu for that evening in the morning so we could make plans for the day and decide where we would like to eat.

 

My additional wishes would be

 

- make the casino fully non-smoking and replace all of the soft goods to get rid of the smoke smell

 

- keep the doors to the cigar bar closed at all times. If it is too smoky in there then Princess needs to provide better ventilation systems NOT open the door and subject everyone near there to sometimes very awful smelling (to me) cigar smoke

 

- Make more of an effort to contain, control and properly ventilate the smoke in all smoking areas i.e. smoke eater ashtrays. fans or other ventilation to keep the smoke from "hanging" in the air.

When we were on the Ocean Princess in 2014 the MDR Dinner Menu was posted everyday in the Buffet. This is the only time I have seen this done. I'm not sure how early it went up but it was certainly earlier than it appears outside of the MDR's.

I wondered the same thing on our last cruise 2 weeks ago, why could they not have the dining room menus listed daily on the new Princess@Sea. AND if they do no want to bring back the printed TV guide, post it on Princess@Sea for the entire cruise. Makes sense to me:rolleyes:

O

On Regal, the dinner menu was posted daily outside the buffet aft, you walk right by it when going to the outside dining.

On Caribbean and Star Princess, it is at the front of the buffet near the entrance from the pool, posted on the wall.

It is also posted up every day outside the dining rooms, in every ship we've been on with Princess (which is more than the three above, those were just the ones in the past few months, so fresh in the memory about buffet).
