Saturday morning, the Crown Princess pulled into Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. effectively ending our week-long vacation in the Caribbean.
As you can tell if you read the rest of these entries, we enjoyed ourselves very much on this ship. It was very classy, and among the best ships I’ve ever had the pleasure to sail.
There was never a moment where we had no activities available to us. From the Movies Under the Stars to the miniature golf on Deck 19 (yes, 19 decks!), there was always something to do. In fact, after a week, there were still places we had not had a chance to go on the ship.
The disembarkation process was relatively simple and much easier than in years past. In some cases where the customs people would come on board the ship, in Port Everglades, you stop at the customs desk after retrieving your luggage off the ship. This made things so much quicker.
We also took part in the Princess transfer program to the airport. Although we were pretty close to the airport, having the transfer entitled us to priority disembarkation and a nice bus to get us to the terminal. In fact, we got to the airport so quickly that the airline wouldn’t check in our bags for another hour.
Overall, I was extremely pleased with the Crown Princess. It is a remarkable ship, and I look forward to sailing her again. This summer the Crown Princess will sail the Mediterranean.
If you have the chance to sail with Princess, please check out these Crown Princess cruise deals. It’s a terrific experience, and I’ll definitely sail with Princess again.
