What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

I couldn't help but feel incredibly excited at the prospect of cruising on board a princess ship from the Port of Los Angeles

the day was just perfection and the weather could not have been better

Overall, I think this is a very positive development for the local cruise industry.

I absolutely love exploring a city on foot taking a turn here or there and discovering new places sites and attractions

the Mexican Riviera is a beautiful place to cruise it ports off of the Elegance of cobblestone streets and beautiful architecture

The Watch-outs

The worst and most offensive design atrocities however were in my very own Cloud9 Spa balcony stateroom with Walnut veneer yellow walls red trims a red vinyl lounge and burgundy carpet.

I found that the queues were at times very lengthy and because of the smaller more cramped space and design of the entire Buffet people would often have to weed through crowds just to make their way through the space.

australians especially those booked on carnival spirit's earlier sailings were understandably upset and irritated by the news

royal caribbean finally pulled the plug on the australian summer crew season

Unfortunately though, it doesn't quite hit the mark.
