Creator's Key Takeaways

It took us 2 hours, over two hours actually, to be able to get on the ship.

The food in the main dining room quite frankly had very little flavor. It was blah.

The atrium really was used as the central hub of the ship.

The Princess app combined with the medallion really really made the cruise that much nicer.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Consider Princess Plus instead of Princess Premiere for shorter or port-intensive cruises.
✓Book a thermal pass for the spa if you're on a long cruise; it's a great deal.
✓Use the Princess app and Medallion for ordering food and drinks to be delivered.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Embarkation process — Be prepared for potential delays; it took over 2 hours for them.
Food quality in main dining room — Try specialty dining or casual options; main dining was disappointing.
Choosing between Princess Plus and Premiere — For shorter cruises, Princess Plus may be better; for longer, consider Premiere but check availability.
