Review summary

Overall we thought it was a great cruise. Princess did a good job overall.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
We booked our flight with Princess air and Arrived in time. We then sat at the airport for 45 minutes before leaving. We had to drop people off at another ship. By the time we got to our ship all the staff was gone. We were told to hurry up or we would miss the ship. No arrival photos were taken. No one to show us where are room was. Very poor.

Ship experiences

The first night the serve was a little slow but after that it was fine. The fifth night the buffet looked like it was all leftover food from the days before. As a whole the food was good
