I was on the same cruise with my family, we were so lucky with the weather, great food, drink and itinerary. Thought the five skies show was really impressive and the kids clubs kept my sons entertained. Really enjoyed watching your vlog, thanks!
Hello lads Really enjoyed your vlog on 2 counts. First, have done that cruise on Arcadia (our Danish friend says it's pronounced 'Skargen' as in 'scar') and it was nice to see the old ports again. I did pick up a tip from Arcadia people to avoid going back at lunchtime on board (awful queues) and there were about 1500 less passengers on Arcadia! Also as that was an adults only ship I was careful to book the cruise on Sky after the kids went back to school. It should be much less crowded then as it did look very busy on your vlog. Second, I am going on Sky Princess for first time the third week of September for 24 days cruising to Boston and then all the way round to Quebec and back to Southampton. Long cruise this one! I am on a deck below you but am in the 'open area' between the lifeboats and actually overlooking the Sabatini restaurant so should not get lifeboats in the way hopefully. I did study the deck plans in detail to avoid any obstacles in front but the cabin is cheaper because they say it is 'obstructed' view and the balconies are larger because it is the 'curved section' like an elongated U shape. (Also thanks to cruise booking lady who also confirmed an open vista at sea from the balcony). I loved your vlog because you are so relaxed and laid back and the food looks really nice. I am on my own so the cabin should be big enough for one as it is the same size as yours (but with a bigger balcony) The balconies did look small compared to the P&O ships. I think it will get some getting used to being on such a big ship as I only have cruised on the smaller P&O ships (Aurora, Arcadia, Oriana and then Azura and Ventura). I steered clear of the gigantic ones like Britannia and Arvia and Iona. I do hope this one won't overwhelm me and I manage to find a seat in the various venues. I have read about people unable to sit where they wanted due to lack of chairs etc on this ship. Your vlog was comforting in that respect as you didn't seem to have any problems there. So thanks again, I feel happier after having seen your own experiences and the cabin you had more or less identical to mine. I will miss a sofa as also had that in my P&O cabins but this cruise was so reasonable for the length of time and where it was going compared to what P&O could offer! Literally a thousand plus pounds less!! I also booked Princess Plus for very little extra. Did you have that too? it includes all drinks, tips and wi fi so seemed a sensible option. So Cheers Lads and many more happy sailing days to you.
I literally have never been on a cruise and since you popped up on my RUclips I absolutely love watching your videos, I'm obsessed, you 2 are by far my favourite vloggers. And because of you guys I'm hoping to go in 2026 once my daughter is in Uni, keep posting 🥰
We’re so sorry for the late reply, RUclips comments haven’t been displaying properly on our app. So glad you found us and are enjoying our vlogs! Hope you get on a cruise soon 😊😊
I love Sabatinis, my favourite dish is the buratta. As you say there is SO MUCH FOOD! I would advise booking an early time, if you eat too late and are so stuffed you end up bloated at bedtime. Loved your vlogs, where are you off to next?
Sorry for the late reply, had an issue with RUclips comments. Haha, we would go again, but maybe not have all of the courses on offer. So glad you enjoyed watching our vlogs! Our next trip is onboard Iona for a trip to the Norwegian Fjords.

The food looked amazing. Appreciated the honesty about outdoor cinema, too, though it would be cool to do on a ship :-)
