I appreciate you so much you guys!!! These are the first detailed pictures I've seen.  That looks incredible.  That view for the weight area and treadmills 😍😍😍😍😍

 

A bit of a different setup than the Royal.  I like the spread. 

 

Mucho Gracias.

it's nice to see the lifting station with windows

thank you everyone for taking the time to share with us and provide so much useful information. When you have a moment would you be able to tell me whether the coffee on the Sky is made from regular coffee grounds or from the usual syrup?

 

Much appreciated,

Camelia

Did you notice what kind, of any, of ventilation they had in the gym? I didn’t notice any fans in your pics, but hoping there may be something moving the air.

Thanks, Dides.  I appreciate the pics of the Sky Suite balcony and the area of the hall that is blocked off.  I guess that they have it like that for when crew needs to access it?  I think on the original design, that extra area was supposed to be public space, but later they added it to the Sky Suite Balconies to make it the ‘largest balcony at sea’ and to advertise the private MUTS viewing area.  It is strange though to still build it with those access points and then rope it off.

 

 Thanks again.  Dinner looked great yesterday.  Regardless of others’ view on it, we love Club Class dining.

 

Safe Journeys, Paul

These may required emergency exits of some kind?

You're photos are fantastic!!!! Thank you Sandra and Chris for taking the time to share with all of us 

[FloaterBoat]

Wonderful photos Dides!!! Thank you for your effort! 

 

How are you loving the Sky so far? Early thoughts?

[Jeter02]

Could you take a quick picture of the gelato and the international cafe cases. I'm curious to know if it's the same old offerings or if there's anything new and exciting in there.

[Jeter02]

I see they now have a stir fry station up at the lido deck buffet. For breakfast I'm just curious to know if it's like the world fresh market place like it is on the Caribbean Princess where in the morning you can create your own omelette by throwing all your stuff in a cup and then they make it. Or is it the same old where you fill out a paper form checking off what you would like.

Thank you so much for the buffet photos.  Looks very similar to the Royal and Regal.

Shampoo bottles in our suite

Does this mean there are no soap bars available anymore?

[kywildcatfanone]

What is a concierge lounge?  Is that something new?

 

And great pics.  Glad to see the WMP on this ship resembles the Horizon Court on the Royal class ship, and not what they did to the Caribbean Princess.

Those are likely the upgraded goodies for the suites.

The hoi poloi gets the soap bars and wall mounted "shampoo" and body wash.

The concierge lounge is for the use of full suite guests only.  It is on all Royal class ships.

Some early thoughts - the Sky is a beautiful ship  - love the revamped entertainment venues especially Princess Live! They are introducing new games to try and keep things interesting but there is still a mix of the old sprinkled in too. Chris is so geeking out on the MedallionClass options but we seem to be a rarity 🙂

Food in the dining rooms has been up to the usual high Princess standards.

We won't always be in a suite but oh gosh this one has been great so far with the biggest and best shower we have ever experienced on Princess!

Still lots to try on the ship though!

Interested in seeing:

 

1. What specialty and brewed coffee is available on Lido deck in morning

2. If escape room is up and running yet

3. spa specials pricing

4. performance of medallionnet

5. movies on MUTS

6. Is the excitement level shared by the crew? 
7. Pics of lounges

8. are there really no pools with stairs other than the enclave?

9. seating available at aft area near bar (pics)

10. Is there a library somewhere? If not, where do you get games and stuff?

 

Thanks! all I can think of for now. Need to leave some surprises! Will be on inaugural transatlantic.

 

 

 

2. Escape room 

 

They are still building the escape room and a lot of the expertise is based in the US so we are unlikely to see it before it gets to Port Everglades.

I am a little jealous if this beauty right here!  This could really enhance my vacation!  Ha ha!

 

By the way, thank you SO much for all the great info and photos!  I'm so grateful!  

[Mt Washington]

So appreciate all this information.  Thanks to those on the ship right now.!!!!  Love the pictures of the fitness center.  One of my favorite places to spend the earlier hours of the day.

[Shaver John]

Thank you so much for getting photos of the gym and buffet. My tummy actually started to growl with hunger while I looked at the photos. Can't wait until the 3rd. Getting so excited. Thanks again....Nancy....

[LoriPhil]

Just saw the buffet pix... aw geeze.  Now I need to go walk around the block (again and again and again) to get my 10K paces in, with only 13 months before our cruise.
