Do you have plans to sail on the new Discovery Princess? What questions do you have about the ship?
@MeganSaidThis2 жыл бұрын
My TLDR answer is as follows, lol: First off, Princess IS my favorite CL purely d/t food. With that said, not any time soon. The lack of water park is a downfall for me. I'd rather take a solo cruise (well, just my husband and myself, not solo) without the kiddos. My youngest is too young to leave with a sitter at this time. My kids have gotten used to the funner ships with water parks and I don't think they'd be jazzed about not haviing those. NCL and Carnival would be the ones we sail, NCL preferred, food better in my experience, just a tad nicer than CCL.

I hope you enjoyed you're holiday, I will be working aboard the beautiful Discovery from April till October absolutely buzzing to work on such a beauty of a ship, its very diffrent to RCI but like most lines each ship/brand have diffrent paths and target audiences. I hope our new guests will enjoy my entertainment and selction of music!

Don…💯💯💯💯💯⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Your ability to organize complex information, articulate & communicate are EXCELLENT. I found it especially helpful to have the deck number, the MAP, starboard & port articulated. CAMERA WORK’S OUTSTANDING. Video is Oscar worthy camera work, technically Impressive and captures the beauty of the ship. The video was steady, no fragmentation, PAUSES LONG ENOUGH TO MATCH SPACE W MAP While absorbing audio information. If I could, I would hire you this minute to create Travel videos for a variety of travel destinations 🥳 Princess is extremely fortunate to have the caliber of your work made available to all of us!

Hello everyone. Our Mexico trip coming up in October will be our 4th trip on Princess (Royal Class ships I think). #1) Eastern Seaborg (Brookland thru Novas Socia anb back), #2) Bahamas, (Ft. Lauderdale to numerous places in the West Indies including San Martin and back), #3) Grand Western Europe (Barcelona thru Montenegro then ending in Rome). #4) This coming October (LA, to Cabo, Mazatlán, Purta Virata and back to LA). Anyway, in this video at 5:55 I noticed the carpet design in one of the cabin hallways has an interesting pattern. Unlike the other Princess Cruise ships, we have been on, the carpets have a random design. ON this ship, I see three distinct shapes pointing in the same direction down the hallway. Hopefully, this shape indicates that ship direction of travel, e.g.: pointing toward the forward of the ship. As comical as it may seem, for the first few days of our trips, we get turned around with respect to the forward and aft direction of the ship when below deck or on decks without windows. It's a bit embarrassing being a our middle 60's, walking aimlessly down endless hallways looking for the elevator, the laundry room or anything else for that matter. As we get to the upper levels where windows are present, we simply glance at the direction of travel based on the movement of the ship relative to the water. Having this pattern everywhere on the ship (if that's what it is intended to be for) is what I would certainly vote for.

Would we run in to a lot of cocktails over $18.00? Your espresso martinis? Also we would love to do the chefs table can that be booked with our cabin or only available to book once your on board?

Princess always was my favorite CL, but now that I have kids I definitely think they're subtly trying to keep kids off their ships. It's a bummer there's no water park and ropes course. They could've made it look less tacky and gone with a more neutral color scheme because I get that those waterparks (color-wise) don't fit their brand as the slides are quite bright. Maybe once my kids are grown I'll return to Princess but for now I think these ships are more intended for singles or seniors than for families. What a bummer. I'm sure people who don't like kids are glad, but also there's Virgin CL for them, IMO.

The Discovery Channel associated kids clubs are very well run. If you want your kids to run around like ninnies on a cruise and just be stimulated and entertained, then, yeah, you need a lot of top deck entertainment. On the other hand, if you insist that your kids are well behaved and can exist in more subtle environments, Princess has the right idea, kids clubs with an educational and enrichment focus.
