Princess is the absolute best. It’s suits me perfectly! Plenty of pools, beautiful classy ships and amazing service. Its heaven for over 40s ❤

[@FraserAtSea]

Thanks for watching - I’d agree - I love Princess!

[@jaengen]

Yippee skippy! We leave tomorrow for our Discovery cruise!!!

[@FraserAtSea]

Woohoo - have the BEST time!!

[@patriciamorash2763]

Another great ship tour. What a beautiful vessel!

[@FraserAtSea]

Thanks a lot - I absolutely loved my time onboard!

[@ICanCommentButNotWell]

I went on this ship for thanks giving last year. I HAD A BLAST. I really loved the balcony that sticks out of the ship

[@FraserAtSea]

Oh, I’m so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!!

[@robertabeyers3371]

Hey Fraser, thanks for sharing the video. We be doing this ship to Alaska next year so really enjoyed.

[@FraserAtSea]

Hi Roberta, thanks a lot for watching, and thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! You’re going to LOVE Alaska!

[@tammy_oh_nevermind]

Thanks Fraser! Quite possibly my favorite ship! I was on her when she was only a few weeks old and loved everything about her! (Well.. being in my favorite place, Alaska certainly didn't hurt. 😂)

[@FraserAtSea]

Ah, nice one! She’s a gorgeous ship, huh? Thanks for watching!

[@mariavano9616]

omgosh what a gorgeous ship!! Best is the spa ;-)

[@FraserAtSea]

She’s a beauty, for sure!

[@mariavano9616]

@@FraserAtSea don't forget to look at the comments on your video announcement from a couple days ago :-) What day for Split?? Are we in the same port the same day?!

[@nrgpokemon5158]

Another super helpful video, Fraser! Thank you! So -sad news: Apparently they are getting rid of Take5 Jazz (which I would have loved for both the music and loyalty events) and giving that space to more casino play. Happening this week, I’ve heard. I’m miserable that I missed out since I won’t be on her till January.

[@FraserAtSea]

Oh, that’s a surprise - I just assumed that venue always performed really well. I did wonder after the launch of ‘the largest casino in the fleet’ on Sun Princess, if they may edit the other ships - this might just be the answer. Thanks for sharing!

[@polar3012]

Thank you Fraser for the brilliant tour of the Discovery Princess. Very informative. Looks very luxurious. Booked for Christmas 2025 to NZ - just ever so slightly excited! I'm a solo traveller and use a small electric wheelchair to whizz around. It all looked very accessible. Was this your impression and did you travel solo on this one? (Have 3 short cruises on QE before she leaves Australian waters - so sad). Love hearing your accent - makes me a wee bit homesick!

[@FraserAtSea]

Hey! I did indeed cruise solo on this ship. I don’t have any direct experience re accessibility, but wouldn’t imagine you’ll have any issues on a Princess ship! Thanks a lot re the accent - I get mixed reviews on it here on KZbin, so you’ve started my week with a big smile!!

[@FraserAtSea]

I also have lots of QE videos if you’d like to see - just go to the Cunard section of my channel!

[@polar3012]

@@FraserAtSea Thank you. Have watched a few😆 Had a 7 nighter on her in January and fell in love🤩 Very sad Cunard are leaving Australian waters.

[@polar3012]

Happily have 3 seven night trips booked before she leaves. Aaah Bliss🤩

[@debrawhitmore6553]

Am planning to be on the Discovery next fall (2025), Seattle to Singapore. Thank you for a wonderful tour of the ship! I am so excited to be on her.

[@FraserAtSea]

Hello Fraser...my son and grandson have just visited the Queen Mary in USA and sent picture...so i wanted to know some more...and have come across your You tube channel...i am hooked (pun intended )and have subscribed...many thanks my friend. ...brilliant photography..and commentary. Wishing you and your family well and thank you again .From Norman and Naomi...New Haw,Surrey,England.(P.s if you are ever near Woking you are welcome to visit the Obsolete odds museum (well our house !)and have a cuppa.

[@FraserAtSea]

Hi Naomi, what a lovely comment to brighten my morning - thank you for this! I’m so glad you’re enjoying my content - welcome to my channel! Thanks so much for the offer of a brew - you never know when an offer like that could come in handy! Thanks a lot for the note - hope your family have enjoyed the Queen Mary, and thanks for supporting my channel by subscribing - it’s so appreciated!

[@tdeeyt]

The enclave had a special on day 1 which was $149/person. After the first time going, the allure quickly fell off for me and my SO. The only use we had for it after was using the showers there instead of our room. There's a sign to limit 15 mins on the heated stone beds/chairs but some people would reserve it by leaving their towels there, go into the hot tub/sauna/steamroom and then say that their things were there when they get back to their chair with you in it. I'd recommend spending the money on a massage or facial treatment instead of using the enclave

[@FraserAtSea]

Thanks for your comment! Sounds like it was busy during your cruise - I was one of few people in there when I used it, so had a very different experience. That’s a nightmare that you had ‘chair hoggers’ in the spa - I thought they only existed at the poolside, or on the top decks! Thanks for watching my tour!

[@pmbtravels]

I loved this ship when I went on my Alaskan cruise.

[@FraserAtSea]

Me too - she’s a beauty, isn’t she?

[@pmbtravels]

She definitely is.

[@haggiskiwi]

Thanks for this. Princess Live on Royal was awful for trivia sessions, but layout looks a lot better on Discovery. Hopefully they'll keep it that way for 2025/26 Australasian season.

[@FraserAtSea]

Oh, I totally agree - I found this Princess Live to be the best I’ve seen on a Princess cruise so far! I’d see no need for them to change it, so here’s hoping! Thanks so much for supporting my channel by watching!

[@lesliem2041]

Thank you for the ship tour and the commentary, so helpful when selecting our next trip. Do you know if the casino is smoke-free or do they allow smoking at the slots and/or the tables?

[@FraserAtSea]

Hey, thanks for watching! So I think it’s mostly non smoking, with a few exceptions. However, when I cruised on here, I didn’t actually game, so can’t answer fully - sorry!

[@paulahansen3772]

A question about the Casino: You took your video while the ship was empty... what is the Air Quality when the casino is filled with people -- and, I would expect, cigarette smoke? Is there a way to participate in Casino entertainment without having to breathe smoke? Thanks in advance. (I wish I'd seen this video before my Discovery Princess cruise last Spring.)

[@FraserAtSea]

Hi Paula, good question! Unfortunately, I can't give you a solid answer as I wasn't really playing much back when I took this cruise. From memory, there was a no smoking section (there is on most ships), but you'd need to check this with Princess. Sorry!

[@KateS1172]

I look forward to my cruise on her👍

[@FraserAtSea]

She’s such a great ship - enjoy, and thanks a lot for watching!

[@atomicrancher3745]

Great tour as always. Thank you. I’m considering a 30 night transpacific repositioning on this ship from Sydney to Vancouver. Can only afford an Inside cabin and not sure about 30 days in a windowless room? (I’m fine with 10 days in an Inside) Plus, I’m guessing some of the bars/venues/spa are maybe closed for these repositioning cruises? Do they sail with reduced crews? Live entertainment will be sparse I suppose. Looks like my kind of ship though and there shouldn’t be any young kids onboard. I enjoy quiet sea days so this is what attracts me.

[@FraserAtSea]

Oh wow - 30 nights would be absolutely fantastic on a ship like this! You'll be surprised to hear that the ships will usually function as normal for these repositioning cruises, so you can expect the full Princess experience for a repositioning! I also wouldn't worry too much about being on the inside - I've spent loads of time in inside cabins, and find that I'm out enjoying the ship itself so much that I'm barely in the room. I'm excited for you - keep me updated!!

[@atomicrancher3745]

@@FraserAtSea Fraser, Thanks for the kind reply to my long comment. I plan to get this booked very soon as I see the better located Interior cabins are being scooped up already. With 30 days on a ship, maybe I’ll have to become a YT cruise vlogger to keep busy??😉

@@atomicrancher3745 Ha, this made me laugh! Let me know if you do - I'd love to follow that, haha!

Well maintained, age of the ship? I was on it last October/23 and it was Princess cruises newest cruise ship? It’s in pristine condition!

[@FraserAtSea]

I agree - she’s looking pristine - nothing at all out of place or out of order on there. I was really impressed. Thanks for watching!
