Creator's Key Takeaways

I sailed on Sun Princess for several weeks and put the many big changes Princess introduced with this new Sphere class ship to the test.

The ship's still not finished throughout my cruises this summer there was a lot of work going on throughout the ship that was very disruptive.

One of the biggest complaints I heard from fellow guests again and again was how many key venues were too small including the theater the gym and the new dome complex.

The sanctuary on sun is a huge Miss but I get the distinctive feeling that Sun really isn't designed for loyal princess Cruisers.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Pay close attention to deck plans when choosing your cabin to avoid obstructed views.
โœ“Use the new elevator system to reduce wait times and crowding.
โœ“Arrive early for shows to secure seating, as venues are often overcrowded.

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

I sailed on Sun Princess for several weeks and put the many big changes Princess introduced with this new Sphere class ship to the test. In some areas like cabins and fast food theyโ€™ve taken a major step forward but in many more key areas like entertainment venues and amenities, theyโ€™ve unfortunately taken two big steps back. Iโ€™ll walk you through the 7 hits and 14 misses on this flashy but flawed and unfinished new ship. If youโ€™re considering a cruise on Sun Princess, youโ€™re not going to want to miss this. #sunprincess #princesscruises ๐Ÿ’ฌ SOCIALS Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thechillcruiser Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_chill_cruiser/ โ˜€๏ธ OTHER SUN PRINCESS VIDEOS Full ship review: https://youtu.be/Zgi2Qp1u7yQ Sun Princess 101: How to navigate this new Sphere class ship: https://youtu.be/zOceVitjXR4 Casino tour: https://youtu.be/ldYKlBxyxJw Enclave thermal suite tour: https://youtu.be/zUt_blLD8hw Cabin tour & tips: Deluxe Balcony: https://youtu.be/RlUuohcPEbk Cabin tour & tips: Premium Oceanview: https://youtu.be/p32bu8y6Xr8 ๐Ÿ“˜ CHAPTERS 00:00 Start 00:55 Onboard for 40 days 01:26 Royal class: Winning formula 02:09 Miss: Ship unfinished 02:55 Question mark: LNG 03:14 Miss: Small venues 04:31 Miss: Clumsy design 06:37 Miss: No wraparound promenade 07:02 Miss: Venues missing 07:38 Hit: Elevator system 08:10 Miss: Signage 09:00 Hit: Cabin designs 09:42 Miss: Less desirable cabin locations 10:24 Hit: Expanded fast food options 11:16 Hit: Cozy outdoor furniture 11:40 Miss: The Dome 12:38 Miss: Crowded pools 13:00 Miss: Sanctuary Club 14:54 Miss: Piazza design 15:44 Hit: Piazza programming 16:07 Hit: The crew 16:23 Miss: Guess Services management 18:02 Miss: Communication 19:09 Miss: Casino
