Here's another peek at Princess in the early 90s featuring Gavin MacLeod

The flambé tableside service and midnight buffets are long gone, but thankfully, some things will never change! "Buon Appetito!"

The interior shots are from the Star Princess, built in 1989.

Good stuff!

Our first cruise was on the old Star, in 1992.

Still had the Italian service, with the flambes, and the midnight buffet (never could quite figure out why that existed!).

It was a magical voyage, Venice to Athens, via the Black Sea with Istanbul, Odessa, and Yalta included, along with several Greek Islands. 

I never forgot being greeted by name by night 2 at the cavier bar asking if I wanted the same drink as the night before. Good times...

Thanks for posting!

For Christmas my partner gave me DVDs with the first three years of Love Boat.  Now to binge watch Love Boat minus the commercials.

We always watch a few episodes when on board. Our cruises just aren't complete without a cheesy joke, and a glimpse of Milton Berle, Red Buttons, or Charo.

Nice again. So much of the experience remains similar to the early 90's. Our first Princess experience was an Alaska cruisetour in 1995 on the old Crown.

And into the 2010's !

 

Note the second officer.

 

Hoping the attachment works...

Another fun one to watch.  I spotted a head waiter that I remember from my Sitmar Cruises!
