CDay Posted February 28, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I am currently booked on the "Inaugural Cruise" of the Sky Princess this October. I was wondering if we can expect anything special, something different, since it's the Inaugural cruise? I heard somewhere Princess used to give nice gifts to those on that cruise, but it's not true any longer. Can any of you who have done Inaugural cruises shed some light? Thanks! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread started with a question about the Sky Inaugural Trans Atlantic to Ft Lauderdale but there is a lot of info on the inaugural cruise etc. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2637634-what-special-things-to-expect-on-an-inaugural-transatlantic-sailing/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering what those who have been on an advertised Inaugural cruise have experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlesr1966 Posted March 1, 2019 #5 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I sailed on the maiden voyage of the Sun Princess. We got to attend the naming ceremony. And lunch afterwards. We also received a small model of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! 🙂 Have you thought about calling Princess or your travel agent? Basing your expectations on what happened in the past on another ship with a different itinerary is sure to set you up for misplaced expectations. Just because "Joe Smith" cruise guest received A, B & C does not mean that is standard. It's a bit different than asking about suite perks which are standardized and published. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
