Some people complain about anything don’t see how you pay for six and they only allow three

Interesting. I’ve traveled on Princess at least 10 times..different ships, 3 different continents. I’ve skipped two ports total. One was due to weather. 60 knot winds prevented us from being able to enter the port of Marseille. We also missed the Falkland Islands, due to a passengers death, which required the ship to stop between Rio and Buenos Aires.
