Hi Greg and welcome

The site is actually over a year old, but until recently we only had a cruise count down ticker available. We fully launched the site about two weeks ago and we are getting new members every day. This is why we still have empty categories in the forums.

But since you are posting in the Princess forum, have you ever cruised with them? I haven't and I would love to hear about your experiences!

First of all, it was due to the countdown ticker that I found this site.  One of my favorite posting "buddies" on CC had it in here signature and it caught my eye, so here I am...

 

We have sailed with Princess 13 times and are leaving again with her in 3 weeks.  For now, we have enjoyed every voyage, loved the ships and the ambiance, the food is just fine and sometimes it's great and other times it's.....

 

The important thing for us is that she sails to places we want to go to without the "party barge" atmosphere we have seen on other lines.  Princess is like home to us and we can't wait to plan another voyage.  Sure there might be lines with better food and maybe even better service, but we don't take cruises for the food and as long as we treat the staff properly, we get the service we deserve.

We just completed our second Princess cruise--the Emerald Princess for New Year. It was a good cruise and we had a great time. In our opinion there are only good cruises and better cruises. We've sailed the following cruise lines listed in the order of our preference:
Celebrity - HAL - Princess - Carnival - RCI - NCL

My wife and I just did our first cruise at the beginning of February: a 7 day Southern Caribbean on CB. It was fantastic and we're in the opening stages of planning our next cruise on CB for next January.

Here's hoping that this site continues to grow. I, too, discovered it by looking at the tickers on people's sigs on Cruise Critic.

I also found this web site via the countdown ticker.  It's always nice to find new things!  Best of luck with the site.

 

Also, can anyone offer up a review of the Caribbean Princess?  We sail on her in November and have booked a mini-suite. It will be our first time with Princess.

 

Thanks!

Well, here I am again after posting the original question months ago and it looks like folks are still have problems finding this site.

 

Many are here on the Princess site because they saw the countdown clock (probably on CC) and found the source site here.  I admit that I haven't been back here at all since I posted the question and might have forgotten about it if it weren't for someone finally replying to the question and the email showing up in my inbasket.

 

Looks like the site is growing, but not among Princess cruisers.  Most of them are on CC and the Addicts site. but this one does offer stuff the others don't, so I should spend more time here.

 

To answer the question regarding the CB, we were on her a year ago and are taking a voyage with her next month to New England and Canada.  We liked the ship when we were on her last Spring even with her size we didn't feel crowded.  She has undergone a lot of updates earlier this year and we are eager to see what she is like now.  I promise to write a review of the ship and a log of the voyage when we get back.

I just found this site today through twitter. I have been on 6 princess cruises

and in 49 days I leave again on the Shappire to the Mexican Rivera. I have not

found the count down clock yet.  Anyway, I have traveled to Mexico before,

Alaska, South America, and the Panama Canal. I have always loved the

serivce and the food.  It is my favorite line.

My wife and I will be going on a 10 day southern Caribbean cruise on the Ruby Princess in 5 weeks. It will be our second cruise on the Ruby.

Good to see another Princess cruiser finding this site.  Hope you enjoy your southern Caribbean voyage, one of our favorites, and the beautiful Ruby Princess.

.......and yet another Princess cruiser, Grego. Our first Princess cruise was on the Crown Princess, the same year she was launched in November, 2006, a 7 night Southern Caribbean itinerary from San Juan, PR. We sailed on the Ruby Princess on December 17, 2009 on the 3 night Caribbean Sampler from Ft Lauderdale. I was also on the Ruby the day of the naming ceremony in 2008 for a ship inspection.  I am a travel agent. 

I've also cruised on other cruiselines, Azamara, Carnival, Costa, Celebrity, NCL,  and Royal Caribbean.

I also found this site by way of the cruise ticker.
