CricketCruiser Posted March 20, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2018 We missed you! Just today making arrangements to sail on the Regal Princess, April 8th (Western) to celebrate our 26th anniversary and my 57th b-day on April 10th. Can't wait to be back on Princess! It's been 14 years since we were on the Grand, my first cruise ever, such wonderful memories. Since then tried RC (ok), Celebrity (good), NCL (fine but not white glove service like Princess, plus they've changed since CEO left). SO EXCITED! Princess has always been my favorite. We usually get a balcony, but right now just trying to scrape the pennies together so we'll do an inside (1st time with an inside, looking forward to sleeping in :)). All I care about is JUST FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET ON THE SHIP Have you ever been there? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RotaryMike Posted March 20, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 20, 2018 take shuttle, taxi or uber to Pier 2 at Port Everglades, go thru terminal show them your passports and express boarding passes. Get cruise cards, sign health forms, get in line. gangway is on deck 4, show them your cruise card - they should let you on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I can't have a balcony this time, just get on the ship. Actually your response is helpful, I'm going to print and take with me. ;)Thanks Mike!

Luvmyrotti Posted March 20, 2018 #11 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Sounds silly, but cut out any paid for coffees and lunches a few days a week. Go with the inside and just get on the ship. You'll have a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have a great time! I'm with you Doreen, sacrifice whatever and just get on the ship. We're booking tonight or tomorrow, just researching travel agents tonight.

Doesn't look there is a meet and greet set up. I liked the decor, the staff, the entire feel of the ship. And the buffet is quite amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
