We chose the cruise and the Majestic Princess for the itinerary - two weeks inner passage first South to North then back South again, with two visits to Glacier Bay. The weather was fantastic, Glacier Bay - an amazing experience. The Majestic Princess totally disappointed - poor quality food (way below the quality experienced on other cruise lines), miss selling of upgrade packages with Guest ...
We chose this cruise a Ruby status and we wanted to stick with Princess. Our previous cruises were fabulous. Our embarkation in Vancouver was a nightmare. We had a one o’clock boarding time, and due to Majestic arriving late, no one got to board until earliest 5:00.
We had requested two twin beds, that was not done. I spent 15 minutes on guest services line (for suite passengers) to ask them ...
This was my 7th cruise and first time with Princess. I decided to try Princess because of the promises that they were the “luxury” experience above the normal, mid-range cruiselines. It was a great cruise, but not what I would describe as luxury.
With 3150 passengers and 1300 crew we were highly served and the ship was under-capacity. Other than the buffet, it certainly felt spacious and open. ...
This was my 11th sailing with Princess and my 3rd cruise to Alaska. It was my first time on the Majestic, and I was more excited about the ship than the destination this trip. I was not disappointed as the ship was - Majestic. She's beautiful, with a refined, elegant, decor. Which is one of the things I like most about Princess Ships. The layout is typically the same on Princess ships, and ...
I wanted to cross the Pacific Ocean, and this was a wonderful way to do it! The ship was only 1/3 full most of the way, so it was very laid back and relaxed, with plenty of room and no queues for anything. The food was great - even the buffet was better than I was expecting. The main dining room meals were beautiful, and the specialty dining meals in the Crown Grill were also good, but not a ...
We sailed with Princess for 4 out 5 trips, starting in Auckland.
During the trip Princess changed their benefits. One of the most significant benefits is Princess Cruise lines has stopped providing free exercise classes as stretch and abs. If you want classes you either have to pay for them or you can do what we did run our own stretch classes. There are 3 trainers on board. I saw more people ...
We have cruised many times on Princess and were looking forward to a much-needed rest and in my case a break. The balcony cabin was comfortable and turned out to be a godsend as we contracted Covid for the 1st time, in spite of having our vaccinations up to date, and had to isolate for 5 days. Anti-virals were available and dining room meals were delivered to our cabin, as well as our cabin being ...
We have always enjoyed princess cruises having traveled over 400 days with them but this cruise was a huge disappointment.
We booked a suite thinking it would be a wonderful experience and we would be spoilt from start to finish during the 28 day’s onboard.
On the positive side the concierge lounge and staff were fantastic, the happy hour was very social and the food and snacks were ...
Our first time with Princess, having previously cruised with HAL, but we did not find this ship very comfortable. For a cruise line that, as we believed, catered to more 'senior' passengers, there was very little in the way of lounges to sit comfortably with a coffee and a book. Getting a table in a lounge for pre-dinner drinks was not easy - the very large Vista Lounge was open at this time to ...
We were on a once in a lifetime trip to Australia and New Zealand and as part of the trip booked a Princess Cruise to the South Pacific. Before we even embarked on the cruise one of the stops had been cancelled, we then had another island stop cancelled whilst on the cruise which was due to passenger illness, which can't be helped. Food and service was very average and the whole experience was ...
