Sapphire Princess—March 26 for 16 days—Bangkok to Beijing, otherwise labeled Laem Chabang to Xingang.
Summary: The Sapphire Princess is too big for this itinerary, put your time and money to better use. We'll definitely take the size of the ship into consideration for future cruises. Why? (1) shorter port times for you because of long, tiring transportation times to the sights, and (2) docking at faraway, unattractive, "untourist-friendly" cargo terminals (so far that commercial transportation can't come into the zone if they even know where it is and, in some cases, so secure they couldn't enter if they got there).
This was our 13th Princess cruise, all over the world.
