Yes ! To me an Mini suite on Lido is always the best. For that Category cabin. And once you stay in a full suite 500 sq feet or larger it is tuff on the wife to step down lol.

Last note; On Discovery Princess L 107 and similar cabins up front - there is no teak furniture, cushions or Chase loungers. A table 2 chairs and ottomans is standard. We asked and were told cushion loungers are reserved for full suites only. I don’t give up easy so I asked the room steward to check with his supervisor about a pool chair plus $20 it showed up lol. Now it occurred to me. I could locate one of the adaptable cushions for movies under the stars. And Bam improvising .

Most you ever won from a cruise casino

That is an on board credit by the casino. I thought it was for casino play, it's not but if everyone thinks that it is they have done what they wanted to get you in. It is in fact your on board standard credit that just happens to be sponsored by the casino. They are one of the same. I went to the cash out and asked . Correct me if i am wrong.

I did not see what they gave her , perhaps it was paper work as well and she knew it was not all hers. I would never gamble again lol -

The only winner is the house. No one says what they lost over the years. So 2 cruises a year for 20 years @$100 a pop that is $10,400 Won $400 once and walked away - do the math 🤩 I just want to be able to play for more than 30 seconds for my $100. Dollar slots at $3 to $10 a pull.. -
I’m currently on grand princess Internet works just fine South Pacific- yesterday I was able to access YouTube TV without even using a VPN but now it says that It can’t get access cause it can’t find my location so I tried to use the VPN did all kinds of work around it’s not working I don’t know if I’m being blocked with a VPN. I don’t remember that every problem before but it was before starlink

In 20 years on Princesses ships $400 once on slots I donate $100 every cruise when it’s gone I’m gone. The most I’ve seen won was video poker at the bar. Lady bumped me and pointed to her royal straight flush $3700 then complained because they kept 20% back for Uncle Sam lol. -
WIFI on the ship and its speed and stability.

Irrelevant except for the search engines - < google follow link > Star Link Princess -
Scanning this thread quickly i would agree that the speeds you can exspect are 2.9mbps and 1.0 and less mbps uploads. Once in a while much faster but not often. Fjords on sky a few weeks back was the same.@ $50 a week for some customers it is the best price at sea. Will test South Pacific next month

In regards to the northern hemispheres, my wife and I just completed a Norwegian fjords cruise on Sky Princess and had excellent Internet the entire time which surprised me. Used an VPN and watched all the games. You would’ve thought in between the mountains we would’ve had no Service, but that wasn’t the case. as an interesting note, when I did do speed checks, they were pinging off of starlink, which I thought was notable -
I have booked Royal L102 L103 L 104 and M103 I love it up there and hung out out side when ever as the videos show below. I have not booked in the 2 smaller mini suites in that position but have booked L107 Reserve Mini on Enchanted this November Hope this helps. https://youtu.be/QdA0bVjyZuQ. https://youtu.be/Z6oldqeCMjk
