Rare DHP1 Posted January 29 #1652 Share Posted January 29 (edited) Looking good. Could be ready in 3 weeks ??? Nice crew cabins.😀 I’m a little surprise this person was allowed to film this. I wonder if Princess is aware of it? It seems everything a secret these days from Princess. Either way, thank you crew member.

Thanks darzo. That was interesting. (After watching the video, I'm sure others will agree with me that Princess should set up a temporary staff uniform shop on the ship....LOL) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the guy's YouTube channel, that video is time-stamped as having been loaded to YouTube 9hrs ago, however I don't see a reference as to when it was filmed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare dides Posted January 30 #1659 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Our friends on the 18th Feb inaugural have just been assigned their guaranteed stateroom.

Rare Oceansaway17 Posted January 30 #1661 Share Posted January 30 well after hearing about the delay I did some research one the ship design and sailings and so now I am booked for Nov 2nd cruise since the ship looks interesting. So I will start 2024 with the new ICON OTS in May and end the year with Sun Princess. In between various other ships that I have already been on but doing nicer itineraries like the Western Med and back to Norway. Next year Princess as some nice cruises from UK to like Northern Capitals on the Emerald and then a nice one on Regal around British Isles. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas? I believe that section of the Italian article simply translates as the ship's inaugural cruise has been delayed.... due to the postponement of the delivery of the mega passenger ship.

Rare Leo37 Posted January 31 #1665 Share Posted January 31 Thanks for sharing. Some Main Dining Room information there that should make everyone happy! Traditional fixed dinning, book in advance 'dine your way', and just turn up all catered for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sox Fan Cruiser Posted January 31 #1666 Share Posted January 31 It looks like the venue for Traditional is larger than for Dine you Way. Very disappointing for me if I have to less options for reservations But again, it's all just speculation for now. We will see how it works. I still can't find Butcher's Block on the deck plans. Anyone have any idea? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted January 31 #1667 Share Posted January 31 Interesting that traditional dining is returning. Maybe Princess got the message that many people enjoy this. Will it return to the rest of the fleet? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisedoctor Posted January 31 #1670 Share Posted January 31 @Sox Fan Cruiser The following was taken from Princess News Releases last fall. These two have always been referred to as "pop-ups", which to me means they do not have a dedicated full-time venue. I can't remember where I read it, but I remember reading that The Catch and Burcher's Block would be located at the aft end of The World Fresh Market Place. Based on all that, I would conjecture that the two areas that I have circled in red, on this engineering plan of Deck 9 Aft, will be repurposed every night as the pop-up locations for these two specialty restaurants. And, those areas would revert back to World Fresh Marketplace dining seating during the non-dinner hours. God willing, that the 2/18 sailing is a go, I'll find out first-hand if my theory is correct. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense. Not sure why I didn’t think of this possibility based on how pop-ups have worked in the past. There is only one area where I still see “Coming Soon” on the deck plan. It’s up near the Piazza on Deck 9. Any thoughts on what might go there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare dides Posted February 1 #1674 Share Posted February 1 In this journal de montreal article it mentions that 30 members of the Cirque Eloize team will board Sun Princess on the weekend of 10th February to begin six to eight weeks of integration. This confirms that the Cirque Eloize productions won't be ready for the first few cruises either. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
