great video! i feel like princess is trying to keep up with the bigger class cruise ships and are rushing too fast and failing. "run your own race" like princess should just better their old fleet rather than try and keep up with the hype. also, we are sailing on crown princess to Alaska, what would be your recommendations when talking about food (good food spots, good dishes in main dining, etc).
@travelingbeyondboundaries
@travelingbeyondboundaries 4 күн бұрын
I totally agree! Princess needs to do what they do best, smaller ships and great service. I (and many others) don't want what other lines are offering. Buffet was disappointing on the Crown but other food options were good. Salty Dog and Slice are on Lido. We don't eat in the dining room so I'm sorry I don't have recommendations for that. If you like seafood the Crab Shack is a specialty dining option offered at the buffet (they use a section) and it apparently has great options. @code4forlife is a KZbin channel that shows a bunch of the food Princess offers. Our next Princess cruise is December and we are hoping to do a better job of showing the food.

Still not vegan friendly at all after all these years. One option for each course is absolutely shameful. Asparagus as a main course?
@travelingbeyondboundaries
@travelingbeyondboundaries 12 күн бұрын
The asparagus was with a risotto but I agree. The old menus had more choices. I stopped eating in the dining room because I don't like the options. We were just on the Jewel of the Seas for 13 nights and I couldn't eat plant based because I would have starved. Vegetarian was really hard even with many meals being repetitive. We are on another ship in a few weeks and we will be back in the dining room because my friend is celiac but I don't like half the food in the menu so I doubt I'll eat vegan for dinner.

Are you talking about pier 27 in San Francisco? Sorry there are a lot of cruise ports and I'm not super familiar with that one other than I have clients going there next year. It's not a common port for myself or clients. Every port I've been at had luggage drop off through so I'm guessing it will be the same there.

I was on the naming ceremony cruise. I didn’t like the ship at all. Eatery was the same exact food every single day and you could tell that some things were not cooked daily (left overs). International cafe had the exact same thing every single day. No variety is boring. Restrooms stopped flushing on our floor on day two. It took few hours to fit it as a helicopter was coming in from Spain to pick up an injured waiter. So top floors were blocked off and everyone was in line to use the restrooms outside the casino. I wouldn’t do the Sun even if it was free.

I'm sorry it was such a bad experience! I'm so disappointed in this ship. We are on it for 21 days and it seems like the food will be boring. I don't need a ton of variety but for that long I don't want the same thing every day, especially as left overs!

@@travelingbeyondboundaries it was so bad that I had zero motivation to record for my channel. That never happened before. But with 21 days, the good thing will be the ports for seeing wonderful places and eating delicious local cuisine. The food in the pool area was great! We didn’t get to eat there much as it was cold, windy and rainy on some of the days. I hope things will be better by the time you sail. Have a safe and wonderful trip! 😊 BTW, I did a little montage of the foods we liked on my channel. If you’re able to do Spellbound, do it. It was good food, amazing drinks at the bar with bunch of fun tipsy people who will be excited with everything magic.

Thanks for watching! The app will show you where to go once on board. It can even direct you to it! Crew are happy to help as well. We've cruised enough with Princess that we tend to know where to go but the app is amazing for giving directions to places. For priority boarding, they will direct you once on board. It most likely is with the Platinum and Elite boarding group so look out for those signs. There should be signage saying Suite Guests. Have a great time on your cruise!

Thanks so much for sharing. We are sailing with Princess in December but I don't eat in the dining room so it will be interesting to see what my options will be. We have two cruises with Royal Caribbean before that (one I will eat in the MDR) and they always have vegan options easily, including desserts, even at the buffet. I saw Holland America has a lot of vegan options, even stuff like vegan crepes and pancakes! The food is honestly the thing that makes Princess harder for me. What ship were you on?
