xyankee Posted May 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Arrived at the pier at 10:45 am this morning. I was in my cabin at 11:17 am. Very easy check in process. Set sail 30 minutes ago. Finally back to cruising after a 3 year absence. So looking forward to this week in the Caribbean. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xyankee Posted May 15, 2022 Author #7 Share Posted May 15, 2022 cruzrbachoua, formal nights are Monday and Thursday. RMS Olympic, I asked our waiter tonight how many passengers were on board and he told me 3,000. Just left the casino and it was packed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his thread he said there's supposed to be 3,000. That was what Gary, the CD, said the night before we disembarked. To get a more accurate figure, I would suggest going to Guest Services and ask them as they will just look it up on the computer and tell you. That's where I got the 1,650 passenger count for our 18 day cruise. Have a great cruise!! Edited May 15, 2022 by Ken the cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the formal nights that us what I was thinking but wanted to confirm and can now do our specialty bookings. As pspman92 stated would love pics of patters and menus if you get a chance even if posted once you are home from what I hope is a fabulous time. EEKS...that is just about at 100% full..loved it when we sailed last year with about 40% on Majestic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To go along with that, when we were at GS, we overheard a crew member tell someone on the phone who wanted to stay on and book the next leg that there were no cabins available.

They are all sold out (except for about 3 rooms on the May 28 sailing) all the way until June 11 and the June sailings are filling fast. I hope the staff is ready for full ships.

RMS Olympic Posted May 18, 2022 #16 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I’ve been watching YouTube videos today talking about staffing issues on cruise ships. In some cases cruise lines are capping bookings or canceling cruises for booked passengers. I have not heard anything about Princess.....so can you tell me if staffing is adequate on the Caribbean Princess? In January on the Sky the low numbers of staff was noticeable, but the ship was less than 50% booked....so no problems. so how is it on board? Thank you.

There is another live thread for this cruise and on there they are reporting several problems with a nearly 90% full ship and not enough staff and also issues with the medallion system working on there for the crew, ordering drinks etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
