Discovery Princess

Sail date: June 12, 2022

Ship: Discovery Princess

Traveled as: Couple

Reviewed: 2 years ago

Review summary

In finale, Alaska is beautiful. However, Princess has gone from a 4.5 Star to a 2.5 Star cruise company. Spent 12 hours at airport to go home. Seattle Airport is the worst!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Buffet breakfast was absolutely pathetic. Princess redesigned their Market Square to purposely be user UNFRIENDLY! My theory! A way to inconvenience guests so they consume less!

World Fresh Marketplace

Gave 1 too many stars! ABSOLUTELY THE WORST! Worst buffet breakfast I ever had.Long lines!Poor food quality!No food!

International Café

Food was good! Had to wait! Staff were fighting due to frustrations of keeping up with food shortage

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
Staff was less than mediocre. Our cabin had a fowl Oder of urine. Finally after several days amI asked steward to sanitize. Miraculously, the fowl smell disappeared.

Ship Quality

Ship tip

Avoid the new big ships. No place to breathe!

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

Do not like liberal cities due to homelessness, which Seattle should be given an award.

Ketchikan, Alaska

@JT1962, actually we cruised in April on the Carnival Mardi Gras and it was one of our best cruises!

Thanks for the review. Cruising is definitely not the same as it was prior to Covid and probably never will be again.
