GrammySpo Posted May 20, 2014 #853 Share Posted May 20, 2014 My husband and I also were on the Royal sail away last October. It was magical, brought me to tears with the music and the beauty of Venice. Hope we will get the chance to do it again.

tassiedevil Posted May 20, 2014 #854 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Hi everyone, Watching all of this from Tassie, in front of a log fire! Thank you to everyone who kept us up to date on her voyage so far, and the great shots ect... she looks amazing. Hopefully the pax on her next voyage will still post updates on this thread. We cannot wait for 30/8 to sail out of Venice . Eileen & Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted May 20, 2014 Author #855 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Regal Princess is scheduled to leave today at: 11pm local time Venice 9pm GMT 5pm EDT 2pm PDT It's not quite as impressive as the arrival, but should be fun to watch. I'll definitely be asleep for my midnight shift! ;) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moksha22 Posted May 20, 2014 #856 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Love at first sight with Regal and Venice. Stunning pictures, thank you very much for posting these. Caught a bit of her arrival so this completes the picture. Sad to have to miss her departure - it'll be 3:30 am in India - but I hope to see them here. Also a BIG thank you all for the passenger updates. I'm so hooked to this thread as I wait for 6 August. And I know others are too :) Parul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorontoTL Posted May 20, 2014 #859 Share Posted May 20, 2014 This was a wonderful morning getting caught up on the arrival photos in Venice. Thanks again for you live from comments, we all enjoyed them, they were very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h3rjp Posted May 20, 2014 #860 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Ok. Absolutely last one. The ship I was comparing it to, P&O Ventura (the one with the miserable crew) has also just arrived in Venice. Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katisdale Posted May 20, 2014 #861 Share Posted May 20, 2014 We don't board until July 25 in Barcelona but if I could I would climb in the computer monitor and be there NOW. All I can say is wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ar1950 Posted May 20, 2014 #863 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Pretty cool watching the Regal leave on the canal cam. Not as nice as arriving since the night pictures were no where as clear as the day light arrival pictures yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishLassie Posted May 20, 2014 #865 Share Posted May 20, 2014 When Regal comes to Ft. Laud. on Nov. 3rd., is she just going to be docked until the 9th.? Hoping to see her as we leave on Royal on the 4th. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmwnc1959 Posted May 21, 2014 Author #869 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Now that Regal Princess has set sail on her Maiden Voyage it's time for me to bid everyone a fond 'Adieu', but not before one final contribution: A picture of those aboard ship who contribute so very much of their life to make your cruise as special as it can be, and a memory that you'll always cherish...

I would say too big for few. Since the lines are filling those ships. People must like them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hubofhockey Posted May 21, 2014 #873 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I would say too big for few. Since the lines are filling those ships. People must like them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Cruise lines will need to provide extra draws to go on the huge ships in order for them to be successful. I'm not so sure Princess has done this with the Royal class. As a result, there are great bargains to be had even on prime season itineraries. I still can't get over our bargain prices for our Fourth of July week cruise on the Royal Princess. I think the really big ships are great, if they're done right and provide more than other ships without the crowding. I'm looking forward to the third in the Oasis class. I hope we love the Royal, but we're not cruising on it for the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
