Review summary

I had heard great things about Princess Cruises. Not sure if it is the losses they incurred with the pandemic, or something else, but I will not cruise with them again unless I read about big improvements.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Service was fantastic. Food was excellent some nights, good some nights. Quantity was OD for woman, way too small for a man. Gluten free breads: one choice, White bread . No rolls at dinner, no hot dog or hamburger buns. GF desserts mostly flavorless.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

The only games available for us were ones we needed to pay for. (Bingo, Deal or no Deal). No organizes games for us like ring toss, indoor put put. (Have been on other cruises when something was going on 4 hrs a day). We were on the Pacific for 9 days, bad weather and not much to do.
