Perhaps old hands at cruising with Princess are grandfathered in for robes? Does this mean newbies will never be offered a robe even if they make more reservations with Princess?

On our current Majestic cruise, we have been asked at each of our dinners how many pats of butter we wanted. The servers were happy to give us as much as we wanted for bread and potatoes. But, there still are no barrel chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vjmatty Posted March 23, 2022 #284 Share Posted March 23, 2022 You know in all fairness, the OP did admittedly title the thread about noticing “small” cutbacks….with a title like that I expected the kind of minor issues that were listed. Some of the pearl-clutchy responses to these observations by mocking or otherwise being over critical seem a bit unwarranted. The OP did not say these are dealbreakers, just reporting back so people can plan better. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Log into the Personalizer @ Princess.com. Pick "Manage this Booking". Next click on "Check-in". Choose "Twin/Queen bed"...don't ask my why, but it's under that section.

Plus, everyone has a different idea of what affects their cruise experience, so why question or invalidate what people have mentioned. For instance, I could care less about "chair hogs" and never comment on those links, but I feel like everyone has a right to talk or complain about it. If the cut back doesn't affect you or you don't agree with it........move on. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it made a major difference to me. On our upcoming cruise they have not only taken away the chair but most of the balcony as well! (We were booked on Sapphire with a large Caribe Deck balcony and they moved us to the same cabin on Royal with a tiny speck of a balcony.) It's disappointing but at least we will get to cruise! One CC said, “They call it a balcony, but it’s really more like a shelf.” 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just commenting and noting observations. I do understand that. It morphed into a debate about if those changes were good or bad. This is healthy debate. I think the generic pattern trend is that older cruisers hate the changes, while newer cruises welcome the change. note that generic means generally. Outliers will exist. I, personally, support almost all of these changes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissP22 Posted March 25, 2022 #299 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Small to large cutbacks noticed in most departments on the Enchanted. I'm still uncertain how it compares to say HAL or RCI but it's noticeable no matter where you turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve practically been giving them away to get the industry restarted. One things are more stable, we’ll see what cutbacks have returned. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
