I Cruise On A Ship That's Been Cut in Half & Stretched! Windstar Star Pride

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a detailed tour of the Windstar Star Pride following a major structural transformation where an 85 foot section was added to the vessel. This expansion increased passenger capacity from 212 to 312. The video examines how this midsection addition has impacted various ship facilities, including dining, lounges, and deck spaces. The creator notes that while the ship's silhouette appears sleek and athletic, the addition of new dining venues like the Spanish restaurant Cuadro 44 and the Star Grill has changed the onboard experience. The tour covers the layout of the La Veranda buffet, the expanded pool decks, and the fitness center, noting specific details such as the lack of bicycles in the gym and the low ceilings in certain areas. Regarding accommodations, the creator reviews the Star Balcony suites and highlights the unique cabin configuration that avoids traditional interconnecting doors to minimize noise. The video concludes that despite the ship being thirty years old, the recent updates to engines, generators, and decor make the vessel feel fresh and modern.

Creator's Key Takeaways
one key change that I have found is when I was on the ship before it was extended there was plenty of room for everybody in the dining room in one go which there still is however there was more chance to have tables for two
overall I think the change has been a really good one and one of the fun things to do is to spot where the cuts were and it's pretty difficult but I did find them
