Ok fellow princess lovers, I was looking on the royal princess platter and saw that they now charge a ten dollar fee per person for the tea, this is a tea that has always been complimentary.
Is this now on all the ships? The tea wasn't really much different that you could get at the buffet. Anyone else experience this? Comments?
We are going on our 35th princess cruise this year but with all the cutbacks (entertainment was horrible on the last cruise) we are wondering if it is time to try a new line.

Better late than never.
Originally scheduled to be concluded in October 2014, the newly expanded Panama Canal will be inaugurated on June 26, Panama announced on Wednesday.
The canal, which links the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, underwent an extensive renovation to allow modern, larger cargo ships through its locks.
But the $5.2 billion face-lift was plagued by a string of work stoppages and disputes with the Italian conglomerate behind the expansion — the date of the inauguration has been pushed back on several occasions due to repairs, strikes and contractual disputes between the Panama Canal Authority and the consortium.
The project includes wider locks with mechanical gates that will reduce congestion and be able accommodate post-Panamax vessels, which are as long as three football fields and have the capacity to carry about 2.5 times the number of containers held by ships currently using the canal.
International shipping had literally outgrown the Panama Canal. The term "Panamax" derived from the maximum size of ships that could pass through the canal. Post-Panamax vessels transport some 45 percent of the world's cargo.

This article came from KCBS TV Los Angeles:
investigated an outbreak of Norovirus Sunday found in cruise ship passengers who traveled across the Pacific Ocean.
According to the Princess Cruises Media Relations Department, the 28 day cruise originated in Los Angeles, and traveled to Hawaii and Tahiti.
Officials explained about 170 people on board the Crown Princess reported having symptoms of the virus.
Over the last few days, crew members said an increased number of gastrointestinal illnesses caused by Norovirus were reported.
“In response, we have enacted our stringent disinfecting protocols developed in conjunction with the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),” media relations officials explained in a written statement. “This includes extensive deep cleaning of the ship, and the terminal in Los Angeles on Sunday before the ship embarks on its next voyage.”
According to the CDC, Norovirus is very contagious and can be transmitted from an infected person, contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces.
The virus causes the stomach to become inflamed, which leads to stomach pains, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, officials explained.

(12:47 p.m. EDT) -- Hurricane Odile -- a category-three storm that slammed into the Mexican Peninsula on September 14, causing significant damage to Cabo San Lucas -- continues to affect cruise ship itineraries.
Norwegian Cruise Line is the latest to make changes. Norwegian Jewel will skip Cabo this week, instead calling in Mazatlan on Sunday, September 28 (8 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and Puerto Vallarta on Monday, September 29 (8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
Last week, Princess Cruises canceled Coral Princess' Cabo port of call scheduled for Friday, September 26. The ship will visit Puerto Vallarta instead.
Carnival and Holland America are also scheduled to call in the port within the next two weeks. Both lines are assessing the damage.
Odile tied the record (with 1967 Hurricane Olivia) for the strongest hurricane to make landfall in Baja California Sur, according to AccuWeather. Wind gusts were reported as high as 125 miles per hour.
