On Majestic Princess for 47 days - Some parts extremely disappointing

Review for a Trans-Ocean Cruise on Majestic Princess

Chose back-to-back-to-back cruises on Majestic Princess (totaling 47 days) due to itinerary and effectively a brand new ship (about 1 year old). The Majestic overall was disappointing: 1) One of the 4 front elevators was out-of-service for the entire 47 days - extremely inconvenient for those of us with forward cabins. This also was totally unacceptable for an almost brand new ship. We ...

We did a few cruises, and loved the last one on the Diamond Princess from Sydney to Singapore, it was civilised, well organised, with amazing entertainment and great service, several different outdoor areas to relaxed and unwind but also several areas to appreciate music and entertainers in the evening and to dance if we wanted. None of this was the case on the Majestic Princess ! I don't ...

The ports were beautiful, the ship not so. Not enough entertainment or bars. Seats in theather so tiny and cramp in . the tenders we were packed in like sardines. The embarking in Shanghai took 4 hours where Royal Caribbean is done in 30 minutes. People were fainting and the bus from one terminal to the other in Shanghai had luggage in the isle of bus and we had to unload ourselves . I will never ...

It was a great experience to sail on the Majestic Princess as she sailed "Down Under " for her Maiden Voyage to Australia. She certainly is a very large and beautiful ship. We spent 11 days in China before embarking which was a great experience, then 22 days on board exploring Majestic from top to bottom.The highlight was the Ultimate Ships tour which includes a visit to the bridge. We also ...

Great Cruise on a BIG ship

SHIP: We chose this cruise as we had not visited any of the destinations previously, save for Brisbane where we remained on board. The ship is indeed a large vessel, but that's the way its going these days. The crew had been used to servicing Asian customers who generally have a different cultural expectation to that of westerners. There were approximately 2700 Aussies on board with the next ...

Where do I start Firstly the embarkment in Shanghai was terrible. Waiting for up to 3-4 hours This Cruise was for the older clientele Average age was around the 75 plus It was like being in a nursing home. Lots of mobility scooters, walking frames, wheelchairs. Most of the time you could never get a lift So the easy option was to walk the stairs. Being on the 15 deck. It was hard ...

From embarcation in Shanghai, where no one from princess could be found. You had to shove and push your way for over 500 metres inside terminal. People in wheelchairs pushing there luggage through the terminal with not even 1 staff member from princess to even tell you you where in the right terminal! No queues, just passengers pushing and shoving. The captain blamed the late arrival of the ship. ...

The ship was good, the people lovely, itinerary varied and interesting, food excellent and entertainment entertaining! We have travelled with several companies but to date, Princess is the best operator. The overall experience with the quality of the service, the ship, the entertainment and the food exceeds Princess's competitors and I would personally favour Princess in the cruise ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

I chose this cruise from COSTCO as i trust Costco for most major purchases. My wife and I had been thinking about a cruise for some time. This cruise was visiting many countries we wanted to see; Shanghai, Hong kong, Japan, Vietnam, South Korea, Thailand and Singapore. Boarding was very time consuming, about 2 hours, long queues. After a day at sea I got a really bad sore throat like swallowing a ...

Most Anticipated Cruise Yet - Extremely Disappointed

We are seasoned cruisers, we chose the Grand Asian Cruise on Majestic Princess for the itinerary. We pre-booked a year in advance and was a 'bucket list' cruise for us. Arriving in Shanghai and our pre-cruise stay and excursions were wonderful (not part of Princess). Once we got to PuDong Cruise Terminal the nightmare started. We arrived about noon, we were in a mini-suite (which we found gets ...
