We have cruised with Princess 10 times and wanted a getaway with no flights. Which is very rare in Perth as the Cruise Lines are ignoring Perth especially for Fremantle return cruises and North instead of cold rough South cruises now almost never happen.
Princess think Aussies love cruising now at any cost and are continually increasing cruise prices drink prices and decreasing service just to see how far they can go I think. Drinks in a year have almost doubled shots of Drambuie for instance last year $7.95 this year $13.75 for 45ml. Stopped all Happy Hours so the Wheelhouse bar is now like a morgue and used to be the party place. Most passengers in bed by 10pm now as to expensive now to party an enjoy.
Closed the fantastic free pizzeria to put another rubbish over priced almost unused restaurant. No Kettle in the rooms is ridiculous they prefer us to call room service continually for boiling water and have staff walking the corridors with that thinking its safer. Surely two adults in a cabin can have a kettle even if we signed a waiver.
Old and Tired. No interactive TV still, no kettle. Bed nice, great location on the ship, very quiet room inside and out, with no usual creaks and noises even when rough.
