What I Wish I Knew Before I Sailed a Princess Cruise

Editorial Summary

The creator shares his experience sailing on the Discovery Princess, noting that his initial assumptions about the cruise line were incorrect. Although he expected a high-energy environment with activities like water slides and roller coasters, he found the atmosphere to be more adult-oriented, calm, and relaxing. He highlights that while the ship lacks certain built-in active entertainment like arcades or go-kart tracks, the staff provides plenty of scheduled entertainment. The creator also details the benefits of the Medallion technology, which functions as a room key and tracks location for seamless service. He notes that the cruise line offers an upscale feel that remains affordable, specifically mentioning lower beverage prices and the value of all-inclusive packages like Princess Plus. Additionally, he observes that the ship felt less crowded than other major lines, providing more elbow room in restaurants and theaters. He concludes that Princess is an ideal choice for those seeking a higher-end, relaxing vacation rather than a high-intensity experience, and he expresses his intention to sail with the line again.
