I was on the 12 day transatlantic cruise on the Prima. I know everyone has their preferences, and I was skeptical about the same menu every night, but I ended up liking it. First, the menu is extensive enough for even a long cruise. Second, with Free at Sea, you'll have some specialty dining. Third, there's also the Indulge Food Hall and The Local, even if like me, you never have had dinner at the buffet. Fourth, if there's something you especially like, you're not limited to having it only on the day it's offered.
Anyway, that's my opinion, to each their own.
Went back to reread some of this...even more interesting to me now, we've got 2 booked on her....and...oh yeah..1190+ views for something thats "not news".....amaaaaaazing.....

Same on the Joy. The Observation lounge is great.

When Covid shut things down, our favorite T/A was laid off. She has come back to work recently and has, as is her custom to search and advise our whole family about travel arrangements.
Recently we have seen close to a 100% increase in the pricing for travel and cruises over the rates from 2 years ago. Since our income has not increased to the same proportion, we have to be a little cautious.
Do you have any idea how much it costs to cruise and fly 4 parents, 4 grandkids, 2 aunts and 2 friends and 3 grand parents. from Alberta to Florida for a 7 day cruise??????
OUCH!!!!
Added cost during the cruise will not be an option anymore.....
Total cruising = 2 spouses.
Less luggage, less bickering, more vacationing...lol

This will be our first time on a Large ship. BLISS. We have done River Cruises in Europe and simply LOVED them. We do not care for loud and noisy voices and information being blasted all day long. I have a feeling from reading so much since we booked this in July and now almost 8 months later I am being leary.
I said to my husband you should try almost everything at least once. We will see very soon now. I said to him though let's make the best of it. Luckily we managed to fit a few Mexican vacations in during the low Covid counts during the Pandemic. We were very fortunate we did not get sick. I will try to post a follow up when we return.
Thanks for the information on this site which I just found a little while ago.

I just watched a video where they missed a port and made the guests wait in line to get their refund for port tax. If they didn’t request it it was not returned.
Now that is not cricket. They have always in the past just issued the credit with no questions and no fuss.
