Creator's Key Takeaways
I just disembarked from a 12-day repositioning cruise from Quebec City to Fort Lauderdale and I've been pleasantly surprised to experience the benefits of an older ship that's very well managed
I was very pleasantly surprised to experience the complete opposite on this Cruise getting on and off the ship was a breeze at every port lineups were non-existent the food was excellent and so was The Nightlife
the Caribbean Princess is an older Grand class ship compared to the newer royal class ships that I sailed on earlier this year in many aspects I would argue that this class of ship is actually better than royal class ships
I found the layout a bit more straight forward than royal class ships although it still has several dead ends and the isolated aft dining room that is only accessible by the AFT stairwell and elevators

** UPDATE: I went back on Caribbean Princess in March 2024. For an updated perspective on the ship, check out: https://youtu.be/3FCpBJ3lclA?si=HJTxaRm_wah8aoYP Even though Caribbean Princess is an older ship, she still has a lot to offer. On a Canada/New England repositioning cruise from Quebec City to Fort Lauderdale I was pleasantly surprised to experience the amenities of older ships along with the technology of newer ships. Although the ship does look dated in some areas and I experienced unprofessional behavior in the casino, the food, amenities, service, musicians and nightlife were all excellent.
