Like to hear from those on the Caribbean Princess

[ScubaJim]

Will be taking an Eastern Caribbean cruise hopefully next Nov. Would like to hear from those who took the cruise aboard the Caribbean Princess. I have sailed on the Grand and Golden and would like to compare these ships to the Caribbean.

[Rosieo]

I have been waiting and checking the posts to see if anyone on this first cruise will send a post from the ship. I am sure they are just to busy having a great time.

[Rosieo]

I guess they are having to much fun to think about us. Can't say that I blame them!

Happy sailing,

I am a little worried about the CP. According to the web cam at the princess web site, the ship still has not departed from Port Everglades as of midnight on Sunday 4/4. I would expect the ship to be well on its way by know. Perhaps something has gone awry.

 

If anyone knows what is going on, please post.

[LVIGGIANI]

It must be a web cam problem. For she did leave Port Everglades on Sat. I went to the Port to see her pull out. She is far away from FLL now.

[comettgirl]

were they having a huge sailing party? were there a lot of people dockside to watch her leave? or could they not be there because of security? did you watch from the beach or bridge?

We are going on the caribbean princess june 12 - wife and I and 2 sons, 20 & 18 - will let you know - this will be cruise 16 - mostly with Celebrity and RCL but a few with Princess and Holland America - can't wait to try this new ship

[Helen]

We're also on the June 12 sailing along with 2 sons, ages 19 and 15. We sailed with Princess several times but also excited about the new ship. Have your boys expressed an interest in a particular excursion? Mine would like to do the America's Cup but not sure if it would be worth all the money. Maybe I should just let them go and I'll opt for the beach

[sanemb]

Also anxiously awaiting a review of the Caribbean Princess. Hubby and I will be on her June 12th, celebrating our 25th anniversary, can't wait...Will be our second time with Princess, also went on the second sailing of RC Voyager of The Seas, Carnival and Norwegian.

Cruising is just the ultimate vacation......

Merlin71: The Caribbean Princess did leave on Saturday at 6pm. Not many people at all. I was on the jetty with my brother taking pictures. It was a perfect day for her 1st sailing...ocean clear & calm, not a cloud in the sky, upper 70's/low 80's for a high.... Princess had a picture perfect day!

 

It looks like this is turning into a roll call for June 12...I too I am sailing with brother and 6 friends.

Hi Scuba Jim,

 

My husband and I are taking our first cruise on NOV 27 on the Caribbean princess. We are very excited to say the least. I am also anxious to read the reviews and see pictures of the ship.

I don't think that the CP crew has updated the caption on the webcam. I didn't see the Caribbean princess set sail in person, but the Golden Princess webcam was on and had a wonderful vew. The Golden pulled out and waited for the CP to turn and sail away from her port.

 

Call me sentimental, I have had the picture of the CP from her float out on my computer as wall paper since July. It is thrilling to see her finally finished and sail away. I got a new picture taken April 2 from one of the boards and that is now my wallpaper.

 

She's a big girl and beautiful too.

 

 

Days until the Caribbean Princess 11/27/04

[mikediaz]

Oct 2 here. Still no word from the ship. Maybe their internet access is overpriced hehe.

[Soccrmom65]

[mary07054]

i was wondering why there wasn't that many people on the 1st cruise. i would think with it being a new boat and spring break it would be crowded. any idea?

[Rosieo]

Maybe the Internet Cafe is not up and running on the first cruise and that is why we are not hearing from them...or maybe they are just having to good of a time!

 

Caribbean Princess 4-10

[marlinmike]

This is incredible - not one single posting yet. I was beginning to think it may be a "new bug" thing and there was a problem with internet access, but they have the camera going (worked out the location thing). It's not only here, but other mates and RTC also - NOTHING! This is driving me crazy............

[harry]

Oh no worse yet!.....Maybe there's a gag order. No statements in or out. Complete media shut out. Perhaps all of the turbines shut down. Wait no electricity...It's worse than we ever could have imgined.

 

The horror the horror.
