Astro Flyer Posted November 1, 2016 #78 Share Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Majestic Princess, taken Oct. 28, 2016... (Image Credit Varjag @ Fleetmon) Thanks Dave...are you weakening & considering the Majestic??? ;) Aussie friends recently sailed Britannia (P&O's adaptation of the Royal-class) and those changes were more interesting to me than the Asian changes to the Majestic. I'm certainly not the demographic they're marketing the Majestic but the British experience on the Britannia is closer to what we enjoy on a cruise. As you know the main thing I dislike about the Royal & Regal are that neither are sailing from the West Coast. :p Edited November 1, 2016 by Astro Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She looks good in this recent picture, and I'd LOVE to give her a try, but my champagne taste is experiencing a Diet Coke budget right now. That, and the airfare alone would kill me! As someone had mentioned in another thread, Britannia's decor just wasn't to my liking at all as I personally preferred the elegance of Royal Princess. But, hopefully, this time next year I would have "been there, done that" on Anthem of the Seas which I am looking forward to even without the Dynamic Dining (I don't do MDR's anyway). :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chamima Posted December 6, 2016 #91 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I hope the next two ships in this class have the covered forward pool like the Majestic Princess. Me, too!!! :D That's the biggest thing (to me) that's been missing from the newer Princess ships. Even in the Caribbean there are rainy or too hot days .

shipfriend_max Posted December 6, 2016 #92 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Thanks for the update!! :) In the bow area she looks little different to her sisters, rather like P&O's Britannia. Does she feature an observation lounge again, which is missing with the other Princess newbuilds? That would be great news, and I hope the two following Princess ships will feature it as well, and sail European/American waters again. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidari Posted December 6, 2016 #93 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Deck 17 on M.P has a Forward area called Hollywood Conservatory, no idea what it will look like. That is the front of the pool area that you can see in Blue glass in the above photo. One reason I liked the Grand Class was being able to walk around the front of the ship.

Sadly she's also getting a rdiculous laser tagging area as the new NCL Joy will feature, IMHO this has nothing to do with cruising. The concept seems to be different in some cases - more speciality restaurants, Horizon Court has a different name and apparently it's organized a little different. Let's see what it will be finally - and I really hope to have the two newbuilds in Western waters (Europe, USA, etc...) again...
