Majestic Princess Review

Additional details
The main reason for me to do this cruise was that this ship was going to Vietnam where I was sent in 1967 as a National Serviceman to see the changes in the region I was in and to take my wife. I found this ship was far too big and there appeared at times to be a lack of staff in certain areas to cope with this. We ate in the anytime dining most of the time and on a number of occasions the wait between was far too long one time was an hour wait.
The Princess Theater to me was not large enough and if you were to sit at the rear you were obstructed by the cameras and lights on the ceiling, also the front twelve or so rows were not teared and the seats did not have a tray for your refreshments.
The embarkation was a total disaster in Shanghai with no Princes representative advising us for the reason for the long wait in queues in the heat. We were not informed the reason until almost on the ship, the reason being it was late in docking.
Cabin Review
Balcony
This cabin was situated on the starboard side second cabin from the rear. The bed was so comfortable. Our toilet system blocked on at least six occasions and had to be cleared by staff and at no stage did we deposit foreign objects into the toilet. I still can't believe with this latest modern ship that a shower curtain is still in use, however in saying that when looking at some of the passengers they would have difficulty fitting into a screened shower.
