I still remember seeing a passenger family pulling a two wheeled cart with stacked cases of soft drinks through the Princess embarkation lounge.

This sounds great, but I'm sure there's a significant cost. I have no problem with this program, since it actually doesn't deprive other passengers.
The other caveat is that the appearance of a reemerging 1st class, 2nd Class, and Steerage classification to Princess Cruises, or at least there's an
unspoken undertone to all of these pay to play privilege levels.

"Latter said aisle seats in the Princess Theater do not have armrests "to allow for more space"

Not that I recall, unless he's talking about handicapped seating.

"Resident Marc Moore said: "The road is not big enough for the traffic that is coming here. It rattles our house. It literally rattles the glasses sitting on the shelf.""

Maybe they should dedicate some of their port charges to fix their roads?

Princess Cruises Alcohol Policy

Guests of Princess Cruises are permitted to bring one 750ml bottle of wine or champagne on board per voyage, which will not be subject to a corkage fee if consumed in your stateroom. Additional wine or champagne bottles are welcome with a US$20/AU$30 corkage fee each, irrespective of where they are intended to be consumed.

Liquor, spirits, or beers are not permitted. The luggage will be scanned and alcohol outside of our policy will be removed and discarded. Alcoholic beverages that are purchased duty-free from The Shops of Princess, or at ports of call, will be collected for safekeeping and delivered to the guest’s stateroom on the last day of the cruise.

The age for drinking on Princess ships is 21 years old except on cruises between Australia/New Zealand, China, Europe, Singapore, and South American ports where the drinking age will be 18 years old. For cruises between Japanese ports, the drinking age will be 20 years old.

"Princess Cruises spokesperson Briana Latter said the line "strives to accommodate all guests’ individual needs to ensure they are comfortable" during their sailing. "If there is something a guest requires pre-cruise, our Customer Support team is available to assist," she said in an email.

Latter said aisle seats in the Princess Theater do not have armrests "to allow for more space," and passengers can ask for a chair without armrests while dining."
