I guess this cruise line will be great for
senior people, but not the best for family with young children. This was my main
concern for this trip.
Six people in my family went for this cruise, including my 5 year old daughter
and 7 year old son. This was our third cruise, but the 1st cruise with Princess.
The children activity area was spacious and well facilitated, but the children
programs were not the best. My two kids were in two different age groups. Both
programs was more like baby sitting programs, not educative and fun like the
other two cruise lines we experienced. My children were bored after few
sections.
My kids enjoyed the shows in the main theater for the first few nights, the last
night we were all there again watching the farewell show for all ages. We were
shocked when the director dressed like superwoman with two water balloons in his
bra on stage, then someone poked the balloons. One manager kept grabbing the
other female manager's breast, the female manger striped several layers of the
male's underwear... This is not adult night, it was the farewell show, and there
are quite few children in the audience. It is a shame they put such a show on
stage. I hope Princess will have more consideration for the children on board,
and have shows be more family oriented when it is for all ages.
