Princess food is always the best. They are really helpful with GF in the dining room. The buffet could have more options, especially in the pastry section

The Royal does do the Love Boat theme. Some people think it cheesy, but we find it fun and nostalgic. Princess is our favorite cruise line.

Thanks LisaKitty, we were on Royal. I loved it. @TeamDavonavo, you'll have to let me know when you go on 2019 on the Royal.

Only the Royal and Regal have the Love Boat themed horns. Princess is my favorite line as well. I go on a cruise to relax, be pampered, and get my fill of amazing food. Princess delivers on all these.

@shell43, we were on Princess in 2016. Does their horn still play the Love boat theme?
