Cruising Tips Chatter / How to avoid bad cabins
« on: December 22, 2018, 06:29:20 PM »

https://cruisefever.net/10-worst-cabins-on-cruises-how-to-avoid-bad-staterooms/

Editor:  First do a google search on the cabin you are considering.  Study deck plans above and below that cabin and read what past passengers have to say.  Try to avoid noise makers above, below and across the hall from your prospective cabin.  That said, I prefer wake views (without the Princess balcony beam) as well as the farthest back Princess Emerald mini-suite on the side of the ship that is opposite from the bandstand in the lounge below.  That cabin should have a larger balcony and is completely quiet.

Cruising Tips Chatter / Princess visa card - What's in your wallet?
« on: November 22, 2018, 05:28:14 PM »
"The Princess Cruises Rewards Visa Card can offer some benefit to Princess Cruises fans who spend a lot with the cruise line, and its flexible redemption options are a plus. But its complicated redemption tiers can be confusing.

Even if you do take to the sea on a regular basis, other travel cards offer more lucrative sign-up bonuses and point-earning programs that are easier to understand and potentially better fits for everyday spending. Research these options to make sure the Princess Cruises Rewards Visa Card is seaworthy for you."

"A 52-year-old American woman aboard a Princess Cruises ship sailing in the Caribbean died Tuesday in what authorities are treating as a possible murder case, according to several news outlets in the region.

Aruba-based Diario reports the woman plunged from an upper deck of the 3,600-passenger Royal Princess onto a lifeboat after struggling with a man who was seen choking her. Another Aruba-based outlet, MasNoticia.com, reports authorities are investigating the incident as a possible murder case.

The ship was sailing between the islands of Curacao and Aruba at the time of the incident."

"Passengers were first alerted to the incident when they heard an announcement around 4:30 a.m. for the security team to respond to deck 7 underneath lifeboat number 2."
