I will cruising Discovery this February. Going out of L.A 7-day cruise hitting Cabo, Mazatlan, Puerto Valarta. First time on Princess. I like Celebrity . I am looking forward to this one. I did like your tour very informative. I subscribed.
Bon Voyage, Eldon! We just purchased the 16-day Hawaiian cruise aboard the Ruby Crown. Gonna go back to watch your videos so we know what to look forward to. Have a great trip!
The Packages absolutely do not depend on whether you drink coffees, soft drinks, and cocktails. Your gratuities are paid, your Wifi is Paid. Those are two big things right there. You only have to have a few dinners, premium desserts, soft drinks, and/OR beverages to make up the difference. Princess has good deals on its packages at this time.
Yes, arriving after noon time you avoid traffic from all the Early Birds arriving and Passengers disembarking. Just get there before 2pm …Room deck hall carpets: it looked like one side ( uneven?) had the loopy design outlined in a dark blue? color and the even numbered side carpet design had yellow outline on its design???
Thanks for sharing the port & boarding process! We are going on this same cruise for my parents 50th wedding anniversary in February & it takes some of the anxiety away, especially with 17 people. I will look like a professional.
@@goldensun168 As for the cabin, you gotta pay full price, yeah. If a person joins you in the cabin, they have to pay for taxes and fees or help you with the cost of the cabin 😜
@mcgovernsandra Thank you! I drove my personal car to the port. The shuttle that drove by was the port shuttle. They'll pick you up in the lot and bring you to the check-in area.
Your video randomly popped up--have a great cruise! I was on this ship last year from Vancouver down to LA and I will be on it again in just over two weeks; am looking forward to not having to work:)
@@Eldons_Excursions Thought I would do a quick follow-up of my own. Just finished my cruise on the Discovery Princess yesterday--California Coastal. The first sea day was cool but prior to the departure (3 days) then for the rest of the cruise the weather was beautiful. I got so much walking in, ate too much, kept my phone in airplane mode until I got back to Canada and am well rested. When I log into work on Tuesday that may change after ten mins, lol, but it was a great vacation:)
@cynthialou-tl6fw I tried booking specialty dinners tonight and they are all booked for the entire week 🙁 I can still make reservations for regular dinners.
@@Eldons_Excursions You know what you could do to get some meals out of your Speciality dining is to order from the app. You can order some things from Crown or Sabatini’s through the Ocean Now app. I have seen others order the Steak or Lasagna etc and get it delivered to wherever you are. Might not be full menu but something.
Is the muster easy to do? Do you do the muster in a certain location? My husband and I booked dinner at the Crown Grill for our 2025 cruise. Do they have one on that ship and if so are you going to try it? Have fun! Lucky duck!
@fw7993 yeah, the muster is really easy. I forgot to mention that important part in the video 😅 They'll have different muster stations to scan your medallion. On your app, it should say what muster station you're at. Once you scan in, you have to watch a safety video (5 min) and then you're set to cruise!
You've probably done this already but make resos for the restaurants you want as they can sell out quickly! (found out the hard way last cruise). That's a great pool! luv it! Oh how much was the platinum package!?
@Lealelan I just found out tonight that the rest of the cruise is booked for all premium dinners 😕 I can still make regular dinner reservations, just not the specialty ones. The platinum package was 640$
@@Eldons_Excursions thx for cost. Didnt realize that was the cost of the package. Good job on gamble cruise - we need to do (just never can go when we get offers). Im sorry the speciality restaurants were all sold out. I was surprised our last cruise. I dont usually like to book that far in advance but will next time. Maybe you can get specialty restaurant offerings in the MDR (know they do it for steakhouse) at no cost? Hope so!
@@Eldons_Excursions - Oh ok. By the way this video much better video quality throughout the entire ship. Hopefully the rest of the trip the video quality will be as good as this one.
Nice tour...terrible cabin...where is the couch? where do you put your stuff? where do you eat? where do you lie down on? and those clingy shower curtains are NOT what a premium cruise line should have...all others have a glass enclosed shower...waayyy too tight...

Very true, plenty of time to get on the ship and have lots of fun! 😁
Ohh, the carpet designs could be slightly different 🤔
Perfect weather for embarkation, have a great cruise
@@Blueberry_burger_slaps yeah, it was perfect!

I also am going in feb..have only sailed on the crown princess so super excited..hope you have a wonderful trip..❤
17 people?! Oh wow, that's a party! You're going to have so much fun! I'm glad my videos helped you!
We will be on a California coast cruise in November on the Ruby Princess. Have a great time Eldon.
@@goldensun168 You're going to have a blast!!
@@Eldons_Excursionswhen you are single cruiser did you have to pay for 2 people?

Great video! who did you use for shuttle company? We travel next month and don't want to compare shuttle cost to Uber. thanks!

@@Eldons_Excursions Thank you:))
Have you got to have a speciality dining yet. Besides the Sushi. I hope you can get in without reservations. You did a very nice tour of ship.

@Lealelan yeah, the steak house is no cost. I might be able to do a walk-up since I'm by myself. We'll see
What’s the earliest you can board the ship? And is it packed at that time?
@jenniferficken679 Usually around noon, but sometimes it changes depending on your cruise itinerary.
Eldon - What is that he added to your drink at the 24:05 mark? Also hopefully you get a chance to use the hot tubs on deck.
It was coffee beans 😁
@@Eldons_Excursions - Oh ok. By the way this video much better video quality throughout the entire ship. Hopefully the rest of the trip the video quality will be as good as this one.
@@Dlee4000 Yeah, the quality is rough when going live
Informative video! (but can't get over how he pronounced gyro and focaccia.....)
hahaha i totally messed those up
Where is this port located? Is it in San Pedro
@KrisTorre Yup, It's port of Los Angeles but in San Pedro.
O'Malleys is amazing best fish and chips Onion rings and Burgers!!
