Only if you're in one of the top suites.

Both the food and the ambiance are below my personal standards.

Don't let your blood pressure spike over this. They really should just remove the menus (and activity schedules) from the app since they are so often wrong.

I see a dance floor!

Chug! Chug! Chug!

Comparing it to Crown Grill, prepare to be disappointed.

A few years ago, we were on a Princess ship that was the first one to use the new terminal in San Francisco. However, the "official" first cruise and the fanfare associated with it was actually a couple of weeks later. Really no big deal.

Tuscan is not worth it at any time or price.

844.418.6824 got me through immediately.

That rules out the specialty dining and liquor, as those are things you can get better and cheaper at home. I say spend it on whatever makes you happy. That's the whole point, isn't it?

You will have significantly more room in the Reserve Collection mini-suite. Princess generally has more and better dance floors (important to us), though the bands are usually comparable. Princess also has far superior speciality dining.

Only if you don't want to be denied boarding.

We're doing that - Northern followed by Southern. I hope we survive...

The OBC issue can vary. I had a price drop where my TA thought I would lose OBC, but after the repricing, all the OBC was still there. So you should be prepared to lose the OBC, but you may also get lucky and keep it.

From the reports here, it sounds like it may be some problem endemic to the Edge class. I'm glad we have no plans to sail on one of them for at least the next two years.

Did anyone bring their own wetsuit? I'm considering bringing my dive skin for the extra sun protection over a shorty.

Have you read this thread?

The app is missing lots of stuff, and sometims has events that don't even exist. Use it at your own peril.

We arrive on the 7th for our Xpedition cruise on the 9th. Maybe we'll see you at the hotel!

They sometimes have a by-the-bag offer onboard.

We're following you by a few weeks (16 Dec), and are looking forward to seeing it through your eyes.

Don't you love the Internet? People can jump to any conclusions they want with no evidence whatsoever! Why not wait until the investigations are over before hanging someone?
