General Comments
The Crown Princess was huge but was never crowded as there was so much to do, people were spaced out. Loved the casino but we had a disagreement with them. One of the game machines gave us a $25 chip. When we went to cash it in, they said it was just for show. Our argument was that it should be glued down, not given out with the rest of the prizes. Subsequently they gave us the $25.

The food was amazing. There was so much to eat and in huge proportions. If there was something you didn't like they would change it - quite happily.

The ship was geared mainly to the North American market and a lot of Brits were 40+ so were overwhelmed a bit.

Shore excursions were fab. Pricey but a safer option. In fact Princess are known to have the best excursions.

MUTS - Big Movie screen above one of pools. Showed good movies. Lay on loungers, blanket and popcorn - great!

The ship is large (3300 passengers when full). North Americans travel on this ship a lot and get VERY excitable. I'm 29 yrs old (my partner 32). We were young enough to take it!
