Review summary

Never had much time in ports so we could shop after returning from excursions. We feel the ship had to many mechanical issues. Room had issues, WI FI had issues, prices on ship were way to costly. Never had these problems on other Princes Cruises?

The room had problems. We have never experienced these issues on previous trips? I feel that the ship was old and in need of many repairs

I only have one question. Did you have time to shop in the ports?

I completely agree with you about embarkation and disembarkation. Of course people who had cruised before shared horror stories with us before we left and I just kept waiting for something to go wrong. But it never did for us! Sorry to hear you had some mechanical issues, but glad you had a good trip overall!

Also it is clear what time you are in port and you picked the excursions knowing how long they were...so how is it the ports fault...

So you went to Alaska to some of the most beautiful parts of the world and the only thing you mention about the ports is you didn’t have time to shop?
