Hi, we filled the form out to say we were leaving today 22nd September on Wednesday, our cruise ended tomorrow 23rd September, on that questionnaire it just gave dates not times.

We choose to leave 22/09 we intended to have a leisurely morning, we had paid for it, including packages, we had a letter last night saying we had to be off the ship by 11am this morning. Someone on ship go and knock on 16452 and see if it’s occupied?

Princess should get their act together.

Did you consider that this may have been due to UK customs and baggage handlers. They are usually employed for certain times when passengers depart ships, they are not going to have customs and baggage handlers available all day for when people choose to disembark!

If it was me I would have stayed on board until my departure date enjoyed the food and my drinks package regardless of what was going on the ship.

I have been on the Sun for 28 days and have loved every minute of it. Our favourite area is the adult only area at front of ship in front of Dome. 
We are from Uk

Some people loved being on the Titanic, too!😄😉 Humour aside, I do think your comment about baggage handlers is a good one.

That’s disgraceful. I am sincerely sorry for all the bad experiences many people had on this cruise. It is simply not normal for so many people to voice such disappointment about a cruise.

I've always thought myself to be easy going and take many negative comments on here with a pinch of salt, but the crap happening on this last cruise is really bad. Princess have a bloody nerve to do what they have done and kid everyone with positive spin b******t.  

Completely agree.

On fb there are many passengers experiencing the same as we heard here- good, bad and noisy, closed access to Sanctuary and Signature restaurant, Dome etc.

 

And then there are those who are praising Princess and say they were not impacted by any if.

.  Certainly not the same standards that I expect for a Suite/ Sanctuary experience at top dollar.

 

Our October 19/24 cruise on the Sun has a large Travel agent group, as well, I’ve been told.

Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us - the good, bad, and perplexing.  I think we will wait just a bit longer before booking a cruise on the Sun (or Star).

Agree.  I’m double thinking about it also.  Doesn’t sound like a vacation to me.  SMH
