Mexican Extravaganza

As most know, this ship is HUGE! What impressed us the most was that you never felt "crowded" at any times. They designed the ship and passenger flow very well. I have sailed on Celebrity, Princess, Royal Caribbean, NCL, and Holland America and I was very satisfied with the Princess experience. While each line has their respective strength and weaknesses, I would offer that none of the differences would impact our satisfaction with our vacation in any way. In short, unless you are a very critical person, I think you'll enjoy Princess very much. One thought, however, was that I noticed the staff throughout were not as "customer oriented" as other lines. Specifically, we would walk down the stateroom hallways and cleaning staff would not move out of the way for us as on other lines, but would expect us to move around them. Lido deck staff were not aggressive in offering drinks, service, etc. This didn't affect our satisfaction, however, it was noticed. The ship, although new, was spotless. The drinks along with their prices were quite tasty, and the food was well-varied, fresh and was not recycled in any fashion...even the next day on the Lido Deck. They didn't pressure you to buy drinks or shore excursions and the TV programming was good. This is an excellent ship, line, and a good cruise for all ages and family. I went to www.SmartCruiser.com and found a great deal which included free trip insurance. They also had much other great deals and specials. If your looking to go on a cruise anytime soon you should go there. You won't regret it.
