Thanks! My husband and I will set sail for our second time with Princess. This will be our first time on the Emerald. She had rolled out during our last cruise on the Caribbean Princess in '07. We absolutely love Princess and wouldn't recommend anyone else. The pictures make me that much more anxious for our trip to begin! I only wish it would never end once it does begin.

We are looking forward to the Emerald as we have sailed on The Grand & Golden and enjoyed both ships. Looking for advice on shore excursions in all stops. We originally got married in St Thomas and liked the stops. Thanks for the blog it helped with info.

All she knows is his name is Jorge and his tag said Yucatan. He was a cutie and a great employee who went out of his way to help. She has searched the internet relentlessly since returning home, but can find nothing on this young man. Guess we will be returning to Emerald Princess on spring break where she can renew this friendship. Anyone out there know more about him? We were on the ship from November 20 through Nov 30. The people on board were the best. My daughter would be forever greatful. Any romantics out there?

Your review confirmed our interest. Last time we did a Princess was on a 1o day Southern Caribbean on the Sun Princess in 07. The Sun was a much older ship and I heard they shipped it somewhere else (thankfully). I've learned that we like the newer ships better, or at least ships that have been extreemly well maintained. Just got back from a cruise on the NCL Sky, an older ship. It had faded upholstry, ripped that, peeling that. Needless to say the cruise was marginal at best. Looking forward to the Emerald or Dawn and the wonderful interary. Thanks for the review, my wife and I are going to book on the Emerald or the Dawn this year. Your review confirmed our interest.

John thank you so much for posting what you did. I almost asked you about the situation over a week ago but figured Carnival might want you to remain mum on the issue. Simply having the jerk disembark and paying his way home was way to good for him. There is a fellow that has the entire "meeting" at the pursers desk on video and I understand he has turned it over to Carnival should the jerk (wish I could call him what I really want to) decide to pursue the incident further. Thanks for airing your opinion! First to Big Ed – add me to the prayer list for Jim and the entire family.
