  • In episode 6, our last one of our Sky Princess Norwegian Fjords Cruise Vlogs we arrive in our last port of Stavanger and it's Gala night. More frustrations with the app and we put the Princess tech to the test with an England v USA App Off!
    We cruised on the Sky Princess in June 2022 from Southampton to Bergen, Olden, Skjolden and Stavanger in Norway.

    Lol, England vs USA
    Finally sat down to watch this- I quite liked the picture-in-picture aspect with which you introduce Stavanger.
    WHAT!? Paul says fries instead of chips. Looks like the Americans are indeed rubbing off on him (in a totally good way of course).
    Heehee, regret face. The pistachio dome is amazing!
    I loved the ‘announcer’ voice for the app off!!
    Ya, the app truly, truly… truly- was crap. To quote Paul- sucks.
    The friends around the table were just a bunch of fun!

    I had two problems with the app. 1) we noticed fewer bar staff in public areas which meant we HAD to use the app 2) we actually go on holiday to GET AWAY from tech and don’t want to be glued to phones and tablets all day. It’s disappointing, although we understand the company needs to adapt for future travellers.

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  Год назад

      Totally agree, we love the banter with staff and would rather not use the tech, though know younger Cruisers much prefer the tech! Guess we are old school lol!

  • @akajasonbourne

    Had the unfortunate experience of that app on a recent cruise I'll say no more in fear of being banned.
    Myself and my wife's main concern is how this must be affecting staff morale we really felt sorry for them especially at the guest reception.
    Thanks for the vlogs has been a good series.

    Loved this series, I love your video's generally so I thought it was about time to leave a comment and say Hi.I love your accents and you are both so funny! It will be my first time on a princess cruise next year onboard Sky. I have only ever cruised with P&O before. I know they are part of the same overall company (Carnival Group PLC) would you say they are quite similar or different? Also I was wondering if you are allowed to keep your medallion door key at the end of the cruise? as I have kept all of my P&O Cruise Cards as Souvenirs. Thanks for the great videos😀

      Thanks so much for leaving a comment, it really helps You Tube recognise that you enjoy our content and helps grow the channel. Great to hear you enjoyed this series it was a great cruise. There are similarities, Princess ships are definitely prettier and the medallion is definitely a plus when it works! Yes you can keep your medallion as a souvenir. 😁

    Thanks for another great video and fantastic vlog series Paul and Carole 😍 as ever we've loved following along with your cruise, and it's been so good to see how much fun the whole cruise vlogging group had!
    Little aside to say thanks for the laundrette tour and info as well - this sort of info is invaluable to us and other parents of young children (especially in the run up to formal night 😅).
    It's a huge shame that the app has gone downhill! Perhaps the issue is the number of passengers onboard/using it at once?
    Looking forward to watching your Edge series 😊

      Hi Paula, cruise lines and cruise ships are so different depends on what is important to you e.g food, entertainment, do you like dressing up, adult only, budget. Keep watching the videos to see if you like a particular ship or line. We also use a great travel agent called Dan Hammond of GoCruise&Travel who you can be contacted here dan@gocruise.uk.com or 01622 891895. You can also contact him via our bookings page paulandcarolelovetotravel.com/bookings/ he will be able to help you decide which one would be best for you!

    Evening Paul and Carole, please could help. We going on the P&O Lona on the 15/04/2023 to Norway 7 days outside cabin. We was going with our 2 sons unfortunately they can't make. My wife as very poor mobility so alot of the excursions she can't do. Is it easy to get off to do our own thing. So we are thinking of moving our cruise to P&O Britannia for the same month going to Spain and Portugal for 12 days and a balcony for the same price. We have been to some of ports on the Britannia cruise before and is easy for my wife to get off and do thing together. Any advice would be great.

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  Год назад +1

      Hi Sean, oh that's a shame. Depends on your itinerary in Norway, most ports can be explored with mobility issues. Though must admit 12 nights heading south to some sunshine for the same price and a balcony cabin would be a good option!
