Sea Hag

This is true. It's a very rare night that I don't have to get up and trek off to the bathroom. I'd be a very unhappy cruiser to have to leave the cabin in the middle of the night and find a working public toilet.

Only you can say if it would be worth it to you. For me, it absolutely is. My hubby is a really sweet guy, but he really (really, really) hates standing in line. If I can pay only $10 to possibly prevent standing in a line, then I'll do it every last time.

I can only answer item 3. Every time we've cruised since the restart and the app, I've seen the option to upgrade my single plan to 4-device in the app. Given that, I can't see why it wouldn't still be possible.

These are what I think of as the "big, silly sundaes." We don't buy packages, but on our last cruise we still had OBC late in the cruise. So, we bought a big, silly sundae. This one is the Godfather. It's basically a brownie sundae, and it was fine. I wouldn't ever buy one of those unless I was trying to burn through OBC.

I really hope so, but I also really doubt it.

And April, rather than May. 🙂 Sure, you can add me.

All of the cruises we've done on the Royal class ships have been in high deck cabins and far forward. We like motion, but we've never had any significant motion on these cruises. I realize that others may have other experiences.

This.

We had a balcony cabin on Lido on the Majestic and never heard a thing from the pool area. Ours was pretty far forward, and I'd imagine the closer you got to the pool area the more chance of noise.

I think this one might need correcting: APRIL 2026 Westerdam - 12-Apr-26- 29 day Japan & North Pacific Collector StartrainDD Volendam - 19-May-26 - 7 day Great Bear Rain Forest Euby Euby is on the April 19-26 Great Bear Rain Forest cruise, as am I. That's on the Noordam. 🙂

That's not been my experience. For our next cruise, I've changed the flights more than once for one reason or another. Each time, I chose seats. The cruise is in August, and the Delta flights aren't ticketed.

Yes, you're reading it right. It's the Michealangelo that's on the same deck as the IC.

You're going to love those cabins! 😁

I love those cabins! The two on Marina deck are our very favorites. Back in April we had one on Lido deck, and it was also great. The Marina deck cabins have larger, think huge, decks, while the cabins on Lido have smaller but still very large decks and larger bedrooms. As noted above, looking out the window at the stars is wonderful. You only need to keep the curtains closed when you have a light on in the cabin. We open our curtains when we turn in for the night. These cabins have steel-fronted balconies, which doesn't bother us. We like the separation between sleeping and living areas, since one of us can get up way too early (not always the same person) and be free to move around without disturbing the other.

I don't have any recent pics, but when we had M108 on the Royal some years back the furniture was padded. I think it's likely that it isn't by now. I say that because the same cabins on the newer ships don't have padded furniture, in my experience.

I did that to us once, put us under the galley. You're completely right. The noise never stopped.

If you don't like the pizza in Alfredo's and you don't like the buffet, then I suppose you can't get pizza. I've always seen it in the buffet, looking like what's in Slice.

So would I!

Boo! Hiss! We loved the noodle bar. I like pizza as much as the next person, but the noodle bar was special. You can get pizza other places on the ship. 😧

I don't think either of these categories are Reserve now. I know C1 was, but Princess made changes. This website lists all the categories in easy to read format: Sun Princess decks, cabins, diagrams and pics. (cruisedeckplans.com)

No, my loyalty level is fine on the app. And, as I said, this error is intermittent. I would think that if there was account number confusion, it would happen all the time. This is an odd problem, but I've been working around it. If I want to access a cruise on the web-based version, and it generates this error, I just go away and try again later. On a subsequent attempt, it's likely to work just fine.

Traveling from California to Michigan definitely wouldn't be low-key. 🤣

I'm possibly the only person who feels this way, but I actually like coming home from a trip with all dirty laundry. That gives me the opportunity to have a full day of decompressing with a low-key, useful activity.

If we're sailing from San Pedro, we like the Double Tree. They have a shuttle to and from the cruise terminal. If you're driving, they offer a "park and stay" package, which is nice. They give my hubby warm chocolate chip cookies when we check in.

This. It put us right off the whole thing.
