Princess Cruise Lines - Cruise is leaving early and Princess is keeping my money

We were scheduled to depart on a Red Sea cruise from Dubai on March 11, 2024 however due to the ongoing security situation in the Red Sea the itinerary has been changed with a new departure out of Cape Town. Now I must be clear that the issue does not surround the change in route due to the security issues, however does have to do with the departure date...

Is Princess Cruise Lines legit?

Our verdict: Complaints Board's thorough examination reveals Princess Cruise Lines as a legitimate entity with notable strengths. Despite a 5% resolution rate on customer complaints, which invites a closer look, Princess Cruise Lines stands out for its commitment to quality and security. Clients considering Princess Cruise Lines should delve into its customer service record to gauge compatibility with their expectations.

Princess Cruise Lines earns 91% level of Trustworthiness

Perfect Trust Endorsement: Princess Cruise Lines achives 91% ligitmacy per Complaints Board. Highly recommended, yet always stay vigilant.

We found clear and detailed contact information for Princess Cruise Lines. The company provides a physical address, 31 phone numbers, and 2 emails, as well as 5 social media accounts. This demonstrates a commitment to customer service and transparency, which is a positive sign for building trust with customers.

Princess.com has a valid SSL certificate, which indicates that the website is secure and trustworthy. Look for the padlock icon in the browser and the "https" prefix in the URL to confirm that the website is using SSL.

Princess.com has been deemed safe to visit, as it is protected by a cloud-based cybersecurity solution that uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to help protect networks from online threats.

Princess Cruise Lines as a website that uses an external review system. While this can provide valuable feedback and insights, it's important to carefully evaluate the source of the reviews and take them with a grain of salt.

According to our analysis, Princess Cruise Lines appears to be offering travel services on their website. While many travel companies are legitimate, it's important to be cautious and do your research before booking a trip to ensure that you are getting a good deal and not falling victim to a scam.

We looked up Princess Cruise Lines and found that the website is receiving a high amount of traffic. This could be a sign of a popular and trustworthy website, but it is still important to exercise caution and verify the legitimacy of the site before sharing any personal or financial information

This website offers payment methods that provide the option for customers to get their money back, which could be a positive indicator of the company's commitment to customer satisfaction.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:

  • While Princess Cruise Lines has a high level of trust, our investigation has revealed that the company's complaint resolution process is inadequate and ineffective. As a result, only 5% of 318 complaints are resolved. The support team may have poor customer service skills, lack of training, or not be well-equipped to handle customer complaints.
  • We conducted a search on social media and found several negative reviews related to Princess Cruise Lines. These reviews may indicate issues with the company's products, services, or customer support. It is important to thoroughly research the company and its offerings before making any purchases to avoid any potential risks.

Rating Princess Cruise Lines Website ONLY. Their website is STUPID. It times you out about every 5 to 10 minutes while you are reading the descriptions of the Excursions. That is EXTREMELY MADDENING. Even if you go back to the Excursions page after reading a description or two, the IDIOTIC website will log you out. It's like they WANT to DRIVE CUSTOMERS AWAY

Princess Cruise Lines Refund

I was on your cruise from sept 9 to 16 with my wife. We were overcharged €200 for internet. The guy at the internet cafe changed this on our account but our bank account was also charged and we still have not got a refund. We embarked at Barcelona on Saturday Sept 9th for a week until Saturday September 16th where we disembarked in Rome. This is very frustrating and hope you or some one can resolve this for me.

Princess Cruise Lines RE. My dining app & customer service follow up

I've tried to reserve specialty dinning for one night on our cruise for our entire family traveling together, 13 of us, no luck w/ app or w/ 3 different LONG calls to customer service. Very frustrating. Should be much easier than this. App seems to only take reservations for two people, even when i've linked other guests to my app. I've also sent an email to [protected]@princesscruises.com and awaiting response.

Desired outcome: please respond and confirm requested dining reservation for 9/24/23 on Grand Princess cruise from Vancouver to SF, 6pm reservation at Crown Grill Steak House.

Princess Cruise Lines Voyage y323/ 14 days europe medley sky princess 3lxv6w

Having recently returned from the above cruise we feel very let down by Princess. On the second day of our cruise we reported a panel vibrating in our stateroom B507 (to Paul cabin steward) who informed us that this problem had been reported on previous cruises as nothing had been resolved by the end of the week we spoke to head of housekeeping who arranged a maintenance visit. Later that day Friday 1st Aug, maintenance arrived with a glue gun and proceeded to glue the frame of the door, as this was not the problem area no relief was given. Further complaining fell on deaf ears. This resulted in many sleepless nights . The cruise in general became a problem as sun beds were in short supply meaning rest during the day was virtually impossible. Multiple Sun beds being reserved by families before 7am with officers and deck crew refusing to address the problem. As you will be able to see from my account this cruise was moved from last year due to my wives illness. As this holiday was meant to help with her recovery you can imagine our disappointment at the stressed caused through no fault of our own . Hoping Princess can resolve this issue. Forwarded for your perusal and comment. Regards Mr & Mrs Jackson
