There’s just one in the coffee line. A few in the pick up line. 

I’m trying the butter pecan latte.

Anytime there’s a…

Regal Princess: Day 2

on
March 1, 2024

Here’s something you have to get used to here. That light comes on automatically when you walk in that part of the room. And it goes off automatically a minute or two after you leave that area of the room.

February 26, 2024

I just boarded the Regal Princess in Galveston. The first thing I did once I got onboard was stop at my muster station. There was no demonstration here. I just scanned my medallion and she told me I needed to watch the video on the TV in my room…

Alaska Jewel: Debarkation

They started debarkation at 7:30 calling all guests with self-assist/easy walk-off. That’s me but I’m going to…
