Majestic Princess is one of Princess Cruises’ largest cruise ships. It can accommodate 3,560 passengers plus 1,346 crew members. Fortunately for our country, approximately 70% of the crew are Filipinos. This is good for our economy and will uplift the lives of many families in the Philippines. Not only that, we can also hear praise for the kind of workers our kababayans are. The foreign bosses only have good words for them. Mabuhay ang ating mga OFW.
The ship has many room categories, namely interior rooms (without windows), ocean view rooms (with a small window), balconies (with a full sliding door and balcony), mini-suites, suites, etc. The price goes up accordingly. After choosing the room, upgrades or packages are added to the room price.
We got the Princess Plus package, which includes unlimited Wi-fi for several gadgets, premium ice cream like 12 times a day (nay ko super diabetic na ako),
Fifteen special drinks per person per day (alcoholic na kami) and two lunch or dinner at a special restaurant. We chose the Princess package which included everything.
We had our Sail Away dinner at Allegro. The ambiance was casual, delicious food, and very good service from the Filipino waiters. They were accommodating, friendly, funny, and efficient. Their presence made us feel relaxed and at home.
Naputol lang itong video pero kinukwento nya one time meron daw Filipino na kumakain. Hindi nagta-Tagalog, puro slang na English. So naisip nila siguro talagang Americanized na. Tapos biglang nalaglag yung tinidor, ang sabi daw, “Ay Kalabaw”, pigil na pigil daw ang tawa nila.

After dinner, we stayed for several minutes on the deck and inhaled the cool ocean breeze. I still couldn’t believe that we’d made it on this cruise. I was in awe and silently praying from my heart.
Good night first night.
