Couples and older travelers who want a calm, mid-priced big-ship cruise.
Think twice if: Many named restaurants cost extra; included choices are the dining room, buffet and casual spots.

What she's like
A floating resort with the most to do. Expect lines at boarding, the buffet and tender boats. About 40 tons of ship per guest. As a rule of thumb, 40 or more feels roomy and under 30 feels busy.
Unknown from line's site. Princess shore excursions use English-speaking guides.
Our judgment, from $ (budget) to $$$$$ (ultra-luxury).
Cabin, main dining and buffet, entertainment, kids' clubs. Princess Plus / Princess Premier packages add drinks, Wi-Fi (Plus: 1 device; Premier: 4 devices), crew appreciation, room service and more.
Infants must be at least 6 months old at boarding; youth centers by age (e.g. The Lodge 8-12). Drinking age 18+ in Europe.
Smart casual most nights; formal nights by length: 0 on 1-4 days, 1 on 5-6 days, 2 on 7-13 days, 3 on 14-20 days.
