great crew, always smiling from start to end. But i was highly dissappointed for not making to 2 important ports Roatan and costa Maya. the word carribbean was wiped out completely from the trip. did i pay so much for just Cozumel?

Review summary

would not go with princess again because lost lot of time at sea instead of visiting 2 more ports. princess would have checked weather before instead of dissappointing us so much. lost vacation time, money, energy. atleast they should have compensated better as the word carribbean is erased from the cruise

Check the weather? And then what ? Cancel the cruise because of the weather?

Appreciate your detailed feedback. The cruise ship/line can’t just pop over to another island. Each port is controlled by the harbor master in that port. Sorry you missed some of your trip. But cruise lines can’t control the weather and other cruise ships probably would have made the same choices. Sorry you were disappointed.

Sorry you were unable to see the ports you so wanted to see. Maybe next time?
