We took that cruise a couple of years ago and we had calm seas so we didn’t have to walk (stagger) on the bulkhead.

Our cruise wasn’t bad but the Ruby, which we took, was aging and it was scheduled for dry dock and refurbish. And it was too small to be out in open ocean especially with waves you are describing. Sorry it was so rough. I don’t fault the ship for plugging ahead. But I do fault them for not offering the opportunity not to be put in that situation without warnings and lack of services cut because of the rough seas they had to know were out there just to get there. The missed their two financial responsibilities. They are supposed to entertain and not cancel events thus cutting the entertaining factor paid for. They threatened the safety of the pasengers as they can be like a ping pong ball in their state rooms also. I can attest to that.

Merry Christmas

We were on Island Princess, my favorite ship.

I’m sure that cruise was an anomaly for that part of the Pacific. We’ve cruised often since then.

The worst part was the crew’s refusal to provide ANY information. That was unnecessary.
