Our Cruising Experience

We've been cruising with Princess for the last 10 years.  We haven't had the urge to cruise with another line.  We originally chose Princess for their itineraries.  Our first two cruises originated out of San Juan, Puerto Rico.  The next one was a 14-day cruise out of Ft Lauderdale where we literally didn't come back into Ft Lauderdale until the 14th day!  That was an amazing cruise and unfortunately Princess no longer does this type of itinerary.  We're glad to have experienced such a wonderful cruise.

Since we enjoyed our 14-day cruise so much, we went back to San Juan and did two 7-day cruises (back-to-back (B2B)).  One week we did the Southern Caribbean itinerary and the next week the Eastern Caribbean.  It was neat to do a "turnaround" in port and not have to change cabins.

As experienced cruisers, it's hard for us to cruise just 7-days on a ship.  Our vacation time feels too short.  Our minimum is now 10-days.  It's just the right amount of time though longer cruises are also ideal for us.

There were times when I did research itineraries from other cruise lines, but still came back and booked with Princess.  It just feels like being "home".
