(unless somebody from here is going to post it daily) Fireman if you open a You tube account you can subscribe to Princess "channel" and on your you tube homepage everyday it will display new videos as Princess loads them.

wilfros Posted April 12, 2011 #10 Share Posted April 12, 2011 It will be on the Princess Youtube page http://www.youtube.com/user/princesscruises#g/u Thanks for the link. Soooooo sorry to see Skywalker's going. Any Ideas as to what they will replace it with, or is it just going to be gone! Ship would look a little funny that way wouldn't it?

Any Ideas as to what they will replace it with, or is it just going to be gone! Ship would look a little funny that way wouldn't it? They are putting in a lounge on 15 aft, very much in the way Skywalker's is done on the Emerald and the Ruby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cupcrazy Posted April 12, 2011 #14 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Soooooo sorry to see Skywalker's going. Any Ideas as to what they will replace it with, or is it just going to be gone! They are tearing it down. There is going to be a new club on deck 15 called Club One5. http://www.cruisecritic.com/news/news.cfm?ID=4365 Renderings of what the ship will look like http://www.flickr.com/photos/princesscruises/sets/72157625962301844/with/5410546783/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
san diego sue Posted April 12, 2011 #15 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Looks like a lot of work has begun. Passengers disembarked this morning. Wonder if the tearing out started while they were on board. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, One of the greatest places to be was in Skywalkers on a sea day. Boy what a view, and now they are going, Sad! Furthermore, it was a distinctive mark of Princess that rendered them different and unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Putterdude Posted April 12, 2011 #17 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I find the re-make rather exciting, they can't correct some of the design flaws of the Grand class but at least this gives her a whole new look with some new amenities.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, One of the greatest places to be was in Skywalkers on a sea day. Boy what a view, and now they are going, Sad! Furthermore, it was a distinctive mark of Princess that rendered them different and unique. They are actually going to save money after this dry dock. The original Skywalkers on the built on the Grand is different than ones that Princess built later. The materials used were much heavier and there is a big downward draft coming off of it. All of this causes the ship to use more fuel than it should. With the removal of Skywalkers Princess will save money. Having said all that I do agree Skywalkers gives Princess ships its unique look and I will miss it on the Grand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
