We Tried America’s “MOST BORING” Cruise Line!
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators embark on a seven night cruise aboard the Regal Princess to investigate common criticisms that Princess Cruises is boring, outdated, and exclusively for older passengers. They intentionally select an older ship to experience the core of the cruise line without modern bells and whistles. During their first day, they explore the boarding process using Medallion technology, which serves as a room key and tracks passengers. The creators tour the ship's amenities, including the library, casino, and various lounges, while providing a tour of their cabin, which features a plush bed and an obstructed view balcony. Their initial experience with the buffet food is underwhelming, with the creators noting a lack of seasoning and issues with food quality. However, they find the ship's atmosphere to be relaxing and observe various forms of nightlife, such as a silent disco and a late night gathering for people in their twenties and thirties. They conclude their first day by noting that while the ship feels classic, the nightlife eventually picks up after midnight.

It's boring. It's outdated. It's only for older people.
So far, it is a little skew and old for the company.
