Ship tip

make sure you book excursions through the ship instead of an outside source. I had one excursion we couldn't go on through no fault of our own, and got cheated out of the money

Another PRINCESS adict! Welcome. I am only on my seventh, but Princess has treated both of us so nice. Two more planned in the next year. Princess rules the seas of civility and upstanding cruising.
