Rare Fa-Li Posted March 10, 2023 #26 Share Posted March 10, 2023 We did 360 last week on Enchanted. It was a perfect experience. I loved that it felt special with an invitation issued because we were suite guests, though judging by excited posts on the facebook group throughout the cruise, others were also invited. Someone was even pulled from a line at another restaurant to fill a last minute vacancy. The whole set up worked to make it feel serendipitous and magical. I would happily pay quite a bit to do this experience again, but I'm not sure it would feel quite the same to simply reserve it rather than excitedly hope to be included. The personalization and the story, plus the amazing service, really made this a top notch experience. In addition, the food was very creative and very good. It felt special to share this with such a limited number of people, all of whom were excited to be there. Princess has a real winner here, and they are planning to constantly tweak and update it, which should make it fun to repeat on future sailings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissP22 Posted March 10, 2023 #27 Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) Did they allow people to shoot videos during the meal. I haven't seen any photos or videos taken so far. Edited March 10, 2023 by MissP22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They encouraged photos and asked us to post with a 360 hashtag. I searched and didn’t find many such posts on the social media I use, so didn’t actually do this, though I may yet. I don’t remember about video. Honestly, the experience was so immersive I think one would miss out if focused on recording. I did keep the “live” function on for my iPhone photos so I could show friends some of the cool effects in motion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were encouraged to share the hashtag on social media too, along with our pre-dinner drinks and pictures, but none of the details to keep it a special experience for others.

The hashtag 360, you are encouraged to post pictures taken prior to the meal in front of the backdrop adjacent to the Piazza. Our friends just attended the 360 on the Enchanted and they weren't told a word about cameras except to silence their phones. So, he recorded the whole event from entering to leaving including all the food and drinks with the video playing on the circular screen the whole time. They didn't receive a written invitation but were just randomly selected that same evening on the way to dinner. If they didn't want photos or videos they surely would have said not to at some point during the 2 hour meal. I'm not sure if he intends on posting it on YouTube or Facebook at this time but he's still editing it. From what I've seen so far it looks like a fun event.

The waitstaff even paused and held bottles of wine so we could get good photos. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shelly97060 Posted March 11, 2023 #43 Share Posted March 11, 2023 We did 360 a couple of weeks ago on Discovery and Magdalena was our host, it was a truly fantastic experience and the highlight of our cruise. Part of the fun of 360 is not knowing what will happen next… where the journey will take you. Guests were asked not to spoil the surprises for others, hopefully people will continue to see the value of not giving away too many details. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's seem similar to videos being taken at the production shows. They do allow photo's to be taken, only not using a flash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you scroll through his 360 post then it will show some short clips of the experience. Edited March 11, 2023 by dides 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went during the Feb. 17th Enchanted cruise, and we were not to take pictures and to turn off our phones. We talked to passengers who went during the Feb. 27th cruise, and they were encouraged to take pictures. If you go to Princess.com there is a link to the 360 which gives lots of info on it. Also, I found Brook Shields' journal on the website in January. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
