We've had 2 trips on Princess (Alaska & Black Sea) but on Pacific Princess, a small ship which we ADORE. We loved those cruises and thought Princess was quite nice, but a big ship is a very different experience so I wouldn't necessarily extrapolate my experience.

On the other hand, I'm the kind of passenger that makes a decision to enjoy myself no matter what happens. I can try to do an "objective" review when I'm done - there are always things that can be improved, right? - but while I'm traveling I try to relax and have fun. [my husband might disagree that I'm always *successful* at this, but I do try]
