Is the gym free?

[paddingtonbear]

On the Majestic is the gym free to do your own thing or do you have to pay to go to the gym and pay extra for a class?

[Leo37]

The gym is free and available to all, regardless of package, cabin etc. There's a good selection of cardio machines, free weights, weight machines etc. Classes are where you need one of the packages for them to be free 

[paddingtonbear]

@Leo37 Thank you very much.  Just what I wanted to know.  I will have Plus so we'll see if I go to one of the classes.  I know I get lots of exercise just taking the stairs but still...

[Leo37]

Stairs definitely a good exercise up and down many decks! There's also a running / walking track that might interest you. Enjoy!

Is the walking track on level 17? Going part way around?

Sorry, as usual on the Princess website, it’s totally unclear what is free and what is not. I don’t want to go to the gym and be hustled into paying for something when there is something better for free.

Classes have a fee. DIY gym equipment is included.

[arizonaperson]

@paddingtonbear I hope you never feel hustled into paying for exercising. You said you have plus cruise package,so based on that- 2 classes are included per voyage. They only have so many participants per class,so you need to sign up. If you want more than 2 classes then you may pay for them.$30./ class - class name listed post #6.

As others have said :gym equipment is free to use. i.e. treadmills,etc.(included in your cruise fare)

Go take a tour once onboard and ask the fitness center what is complimentary if the Princess.com site isn’t clear to you.

Kill. This. Thread. (You might give Carnival ideas on how to increase revenue.)

They will also have Zumba in one of the venues on deck 5 or 7 and that is free for all to join.  They even set up a table nearby with towels and cold water.  It’s wildly popular.  I think it’s at 9:00 or 9:30 in the morning on sea days.
