Where do Suite cabins

1st time in a Suite

Where do suite cabins meet to get off the ship on CP ??

Also, if we are doing an excursion with someone not in a suite can we get them a pass?

Do you mean in the ports? No special place for suite passengers for ports. If you have an excursion booked through the ship you will receive tour tickets in your cabin telling you where and when to meet. Sometimes the meeting place is on the ship and sometimes it's onshore. If you've booked excursions independently or are just getting off the ship to wander it's up to you to get off the ship. And yes, there is sometimes a long line. That's for all passengers, suite or not.

 

If you are talking disembarkation instead, on the last day there is a platinum/elite/suite lounge.

Or are you referring to tendering? If so, on most Princess cruises, passengers in suites and Elite in the Captain's circle have priority tendering and just go to the tendering line and get on the end. Non-suite/Elite passengers have to go to the assigned area to get a number and wait for their number to be called.

The CP (Sea Princess) is a smaller ship so a meeting place is unlikely. You'll be issued tender tickets in your cabin. Then, you just have to get on the back of the line for the tender. Not sure about your friend as they are not eligible to disembark with full suite passengers. You can ask at the Shore Excursion Desk.

There is generally no need to "rush" off....just head to the tenders about 20 mins before you need to be ashore. It's all good!

The OP is on the ROLL CALL for Caribbean Princess British Isles. Common mistake calling her CP instead of CB. EM

I was recently on a 30 day cruise on the Caribbean Princess, not in a Suite, but am Elite so qualified for priority tendering.

On days where tendering was required, and we were going to go ashore on our own, we had to go, along with everyone else, to the location where tender tickets were being handed out, obtain tickets, and wait till our number group was called. At that time, Suite and Elite passengers within that number group were directed to the head of the line leaving the waiting area and were able to board the tenders ahead of the rest of the number group.

 

That's the extent of "priority boarding" we experienced on that cruise.

Not much of a benefit.

On a recent Trans-Atlantic there were almost 1000 elites, so they were required to get tender tickets along with the non-elites.

 

On the next segment the number of elites was about 450 and they could just go to the end of the line in the boarding area.

When we were on the Caribbean TA last year, we had to go to the room where tickets were dispensed, and we went to a different part of the dining room and waited just a few minutes for the next tender. We were called, but it was within 10 minutes.
