Creator's Key Takeaways

the main thing that I wanted you to be aware of is they are people who enjoy um as so many of us do that when you are on a cruise and that you know the traditional dining experience princess no longer has traditional dining

the move over offer is basically if you will move to another sailing it can be another sailing to Alaska they will take your cruise fare all your money that you paid and turn it into an onboard credit on that cruise

they have decided that they have got to clean her hole before they get her to New Zealand and so instead of calling in Hilo Hawaii and um they've had to take they've had to take two ports off of the cruise

if you are in Skagway Skagway is really different this year than it has been before because of that rock slide that happened last year

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ask to sit at the same table every night on Princess cruises, but be aware it may not be accommodated.
If you receive a move-over offer, weigh the benefits and consider accepting if it fits your plans.
When placing a waitlist booking, be aware the price may increase when accepted.
Use the do-not-disturb button on your stateroom door to control cabin servicing.
If you leave an excursion, inform the leader and ensure you know the all-aboard time and how to get back.
Keep track of ship time versus port time to avoid missing the ship.

Cabin servicingUse the do-not-disturb button, but allow occasional cleaning to ease crew workload on turnaround day.
Excursion safetyOnly leave an excursion if you know the all-aboard time and have a reliable way back to the ship.
