SouthernBelle_N_Louisiana Posted June 23, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 23, 2015 A couple years ago, Princess offered a military veteran themed cruise from Houston which featured guest speakers and such. Plus it helped raise money for veteran charity groups. Are these still going on? We are interested. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have not seen any since. Edited June 23, 2015 by Colo Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKman2495 Posted June 23, 2015 #3 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) I was on that cruise. The ship was about 1/2 full. Lots of vets, lots of programs with some big names. overall a great cruise. No "slacks and polo shirts" on formal night too. But, I have not seen anything else about such cruises. Edited June 23, 2015 by AKman2495 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted June 24, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) I was on that cruise. The ship was about 1/2 full. Lots of vets, lots of programs with some big names. overall a great cruise. Cruise was too short to attract many people. There was heavy discounting as embarkation day approached. No repeat since then Princess President Alan Buckelew (a veteran) was promoted to living in China. Buckelew was in charge of Princess when the Veterans OBC was introduced.
