Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Overall pretty good, had the fish and chips which was like sushi, but onlt the once, had a really tough steak, again only once but that was only 2 out of 31 nights.
Onboard Activities
1 out of 5
Not really happy doing things in the Piazza/Atrium that should be in a children's playground, so we didn't bother, come on Princess we're not children.
Entertainment
2 out of 5
To start with the party band, the Echoes were probably the best we've seen in almost 40 cruises, BUT why oh why are they stuck in the Piazza/Atrium, where people are standing on the stairs on 2 floors x 3 staircases, where there are 2 fine dining restaurants, shopping, safety issue here, when there is a better location in the Vista lounge, the 3 comedians they have were just ok, guest artists were average, Princess live should be renamed Princess karaoke & quiz lounge, as 3 karaoke in 2 days is to much, 1 in the afternoon then another the same evening, then again 2 following evenings is to much & I like karaoke, but onlywatching, DJ Lee is the most miserable person I've ever seen on cruise, never once seen him smile, so after a few time of going into Vista we gave up, only 3 theatre cast shows in 31 nights is really poor, when other cruise ships do at least 2 per week, Glitz duo were just ok, Christian Bispo was awful, heard better buskers in any city center, Ocean Vibes were bad, Voice of the ocean was pretty good, but when you have 2 people who sing on the pub/club circuit & another who is a professional, you could tell by the way she pulled the microphone away from her mouth when hitting high notes & her hand gestures, I did hear she was a singer on the cruise ships, but on holiday, makes it a little unfair for the amateur singers, and, no I wasn't one of them.
Service and Staff

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Had a creaky patio door onto balcony, but eventually sorted after 3 nights loss of sleep, after that no problems.
Ship tip
Try and persuade cruise director to put band where they should be, in Vista
Can only comment on La Ceté Del A Mer, Titanic museum/oceanarium/submarine museum, which I can honestly say, probably the one of best museum's I've ever been in, cruise lines won't tell you about it, as it's 2 minutes away from ships berth.
You said Cherbourg was the best , Cherbourg was the port of call before Queenstown ( Cobh ) that Titanic picked / dropped off passengers . I was at the Cobh museum in September this year.
So thank you.
