Review summary
The ship is full of old people, many are very unfriendly and hate kids - they have no problem making some nasty comment to you in the morning and will ruin your whole day! Evening entertainment is just horrible with the same singers and dancers every night and the same funeral music at the Plaza every night. Half of the nights there were no single seat left for 7:15 pm show in the Princess Theatre, which is old and small. During 10-night cruise there were no magician, acrobats, etc. that you usually see on other ships. There was one band (Project 5) that was great but they usually put them in the smallest lounge with no seats left. Day care was closed several times for 'family fun' - i.e. you have to entertain your own kids! They have to be kidding me! The purpose of a day care is for adult to have some free/alone time and not work as a babysitter on your vacation! We were on Princess Regal 2 yrs ago and it was actually more fun than this ship (the ship is newer), although there was the same very old crowd with some nasty people. The food and service was good in general... In summary, if you are under 75 yo avoid Princess cruises all together - they are not fun at all. My mom (72 yo) who was with us on this cruise was very bored, and questioned all the time why would anyone her age would want to be on this ship.Embarkation
