Caribbean Princess

7 Night Western Caribbean (Houston Roundtrip)

Sail date: January 03, 2016

Ship: Caribbean Princess

Cabin type: Inside

Cabin number: B221

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 8 years ago

Review summary

Very good, well organised cruise.

 

Only negatives were excursion guides hustling for gratuities on already overpriced tours.

And the expected blizzard of papers and brochures and "announcements" selling services, events, merchandise etc. onboard.

 

"Weather delayed" return caused expenses in changed  flights etc. Covered by Trip Insurance or compensated directly by Princess??

 

Not really a "Weather Delay" Same in previous seven weeks of this program, re winds, fog etc.

 

Houston is unacceptable as a port for a back to back cruise program for a ship of this size. Narrow, long shipping lane, winds and fog frequent.
