Creator's Key Takeaways

It's our very first time with Princess and while we're really excited, we're also a bit nervous cuz we have no idea what to expect.

We're a bit blown at the moment. We're a bit overwhelmed. I'm not going to lie. It was not what we're used to.

Today was overwhelming in the best way. Hopefully tomorrow's C day is a bit more relaxing or at least involves fewer moments of us looking completely lost.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Enter travel details into the Princess Cruises app at least 24 hours before embarkation.
Check the correct cruise terminal in Southampton using the Southampton VTS website.
Use the Princess app to plan routes around the ship and book shore excursions and dining.

YouTube Video Description

We’ve started a brand-new series, and this time we’re setting sail on Sky Princess, one of the newest ships in the Princess Cruises fleet. Launched in 2019, Sky Princess is a modern, elegant ship, and this is our very first time cruising with Princess! (Vlog #1) We embarked Sky Princess in Southampton for a 7-night Scandinavian cruise, and right from the start we were a mix of excited and overwhelmed. From using the Princess Cruises OceanMedallion app for the first time, to exploring the beautiful Piazza atrium, enjoying the shows in the theatre, and of course trying out the different dining options onboard, there was so much to take in. Throughout this series we’ll be running around Sky Princess, sharing our honest first impressions and showing you what it’s really like to cruise with Princess Cruises. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like on Sky Princess, we’d love for you to come cruise with us as we start our Sky Princess adventure!
