  1. A google search- “American bacon is generally served in crispy strips, streaked with fat, while British bacon, also known as rashers, is chewier and thicker, served in round slices; it’s closer to a slice of grilled deli meat than what an American would traditionally call “bacon.” But what, exactly, causes the difference. Even though American bacon is often smoked for flavor, and British bacon is often left unsmoked, or “green,” both styles of bacon are cured. American bacon is streaky with fat because it comes from pork belly, one of the fattiest parts of the pig. Rashers are cut from the loin, located in the middle of the pig’s back where the meat is leaner. The cut of meat that’s used for British bacon is actually the same cut as a pork tenderloin or loin roast, just sliced and cured differently.“ So will the ship have both?
  2. Do they still have that Loveboat chocolate dessert on embarkation day?
  3. Do Europeans with children even eat late?
  4. Thank you. But SHOULD you book ahead- does it fill up?
  5. If we choose a set dining time , would we be able to skip it and do anytime dining if that suits us better on a particular night? Also, should we book specialty dining before getting on the ship? TIA
  6. I haven’t read all these posts but the one time I sailed on Princess -10 years ago so it was already purchased by Carnival- I thought it was the best food I’ve ever had on a cruise ! And I’ve been on Norwegian, Holland , RCCL, Celebrity , Asmara and Oceania.
  7. Hmmm. They are still showing all the ports. I thought one was being deleted for the entire season.
  8. The Crown was built in 2006. When was it last refurbished? I’ve seen that it holds 3080 passengers and 3599. Is it possible that the smaller number is after refurbishing? Thanks!
  9. We booked Emerald for 2022 and then were switched to Crown.
  10. Was anyone else originally booked on the Emerald Princess like us and got switched to the Crown?
  11. What is special about the Inside Passage? Other than the seas being calmer I would think. Do they usually do it both directions?
