Us too! Hopefully, this cruise will not be cancelled, due to the drought in Lake Gatan... and hopefully, we don't lose too many Ports of Call as they already cancelled Nicaragua due to political unrest.
This ship is almost identical to the Ruby Princess. I think this one is a year older. We went on Ruby last year and just returned 1 week ago from our second cruise. We love the ship 🚢 😊
I stayed in the inside stateroom on Princess and NCL but I felt that Princess inside cabins were so comfortable. It was laid out really well and felt so comfortable. The NCL inside cabin was ok. It was much smaller and just not as comfortable.
in Huatulco, on the beach at the pier...where can one rent beach chairs , and umbrellas? Is there a public bathroom there? also onboard, what are the casual dining options (the ones with a cover charge , as we have 2 credits for casual dining options... we heard that Salty Dog is now a cover charged restaurant, n ot free..)
On this ship it was a cover. I just got off the enchanted princess, and on that ship it was free, by the the pool. There were chairs everywhere on huatulco - you shouldn’t have a problem. There are facilities everywhere too.
👍Enjoyed your tour, nice to the point no wasted time. Never sailed on Princess, platinum Carnival and ready to go to another line. No issues with Carny except we were not thrilled with the Celebration sister to the Mardi Gras however we did like the M.G better. Carnival needs to expand their ports of call. Cheers🍻
Does anyone know if the cabin doors are magnetic? We like to decorate our doors, which make them easier to identify. Our decorations have magnets, but I'll bring tape just in case.
Because of covid I am happy the eating utensils were not laid out. Some people love to touch things. I also like that they cut down on amount on the buffets again just because of Covid. So much has changed every where so am not surprised.
We’re going on Emerald Princess June 1st to Hawaii. I hope they fix what needs to be fix or remodel. Does anybody have an idea how small this ship is compared to the Grand Princess?
@@normanchang7811we just got back from the June trip to Hawaii. It was phenomenal! I would definitely download the app and book your dinner times for one of the restaurants. We did 8:00 at DaVinci's which actually was a good time. You don't always have to go at that time but it prioritizes you when seating if you make reservations for the entire time. Also, have a plan of what you want to do on each island so you don't waste time. Have fun, I would go again in a heartbeat!
Fantastic video! Sailing on her in August! Thank you!
Enjoy the cruise!!’
Very nice, concise tour!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
great tour! she is sailing out of Brooklyn, New York in the fall of 2023, great values for 7 and 11 day cruises
Thanks for the feedback! Enjoy your next cruise! What’s it going to be?
Well Done--I will be on Emerald Princess for 14 day Panama canal.
Panama Canal was an incredible feat of engineering. Enjoy the cruise!

The princes products are pretty consistent.
Getting on this ship in June. The Grand Class is my absolute favourite ship class!
Have an awesome cruise!!!!
Nice review. I remember when you could get a nice filet mignon in the main dining room before the onset of specialty restaurants.
Yes! I remember when they used to have a grand gala midnight buffet!
Thank you for the nice walkthrough.
We never been on this ship and I was wondering how big it is and old or nice.
Glad you enjoyed the walk thru!

You are definitely right about NCL - they seemed much smaller.

Thanks for weighing in! Glad you locked the tough. Both are fine ships imho!
Excellent presentation
Thank you so much! Thanks for stopping by!
She was my Second Cruise a year after the ship came out in the Mediterranean and Baltic
She’s a beautiful ship!
Are there electrical circuits near the bed? I have a cpap machine.
I don’t recall - that’s a good point though. Some people only think about cell phone charging - not medical devices. Thanks for bringing that up!

I saw many people with decorations- I don’t recall if they were magnetic tho!
Yes, the doors are metal and magnets will stick to them
Nice walk through. I was just on the Ruby and it looks real similar. Will be on the Emerald for 14 days in November. Did they have Voice of the Ocean?
@@cleejack1851 Affirmative. Should be a great time.
Because of covid I am happy the eating utensils were not laid out. Some people love to touch things. I also like that they cut down on amount on the buffets again just because of Covid. So much has changed every where so am not surprised.
On all the Princess ships I've been on, even pre-covid there was always someone there and handed a set wrapped in a cloth napkin to you.
Im Going on this ship soon!
Have a great trip! Enjoy the cruise!
Sameeeee
Me to bro!😂 coming up like march 27th
@@aidengonzalez4354 ooh that’s cool I’m going sometime in march to! Idk the exact date tho
We’re going on Emerald Princess June 1st to Hawaii.
I hope they fix what needs to be fix or remodel.

I understand they are pretty close.

Was the pizza complimentary?
yes - the pizza was complimentary - i did read somewhere that some lines were looking to charge though...
It is free, at the Pizza Place by THE POOL, there it is free... but not in the specialty restaurant.
❤️❤️❤️Emarald🙏🥰🥰
Love the ship!
Do inside Staterooms have coffee makers?
Not that I recall
Taking her around the world next year
That’s an awesome cruise! What port are you looking forward to the most?
Just came from the Hawaii cruise
Hope it was an awesome cruise!
I prefer this class of ship. I sailed her sister Diamond and really loved those huge promenade decks vs the tiny decks on the Discovery & Regal.
That’s a a good point to compare - true.
Are there good options for vegitarians and vegans? thx I LOVE THE LOOK of the atrium. Classy. Tired of the OVER white modern soul-less type ships
A lot of cruise ship decor ages quickly because they tend to be trendy. I love it too!
You get wahat you pay for
True statement!
Wow you were not far away from D726 where a murder took place. *Kristy Manzanares* RIP
Omg! Scary! That’s a crazy story - I wouldn’t have known!
@@multimediadelivery most people don't know. Princess cruises doesn''t want people to know.
Can only imagine how many people got that cabin since?
@@alpharenz1329 wow that’s incredible - there was no indication anything happened in there!
Dated, dated dated!
It’s starting to show its age that’s for sure
Nothing but entitled 80 year old's in scooters and wheel chairs. 1 and done with Princess.
What time of year did you go on Princess?
@@multimediadelivery last week
@@ejohnson3837 i sense that as soon as schools are out for summer that guests will skew younger for the summertime cruises.
