๐บ๐ธโก๏ธ๐ฌ๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐งโก๏ธ๐บ๐ธ This is the second leg of my epic adventure, and what a ride itโs been so far!
After spending two incredible days in London, England, where I saw Simply Red and SoulIISoul live at the O2 Arena on October 10th, on the 11th, I set sail on a 15-day transatlantic cruise aboard the Emerald Princess from Southampton, England to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida โ with stops in Le Havre, France and Bilbao & Vigo, Spain and Madeira, Portugal followed by eight wonderful days at sea.
For this trip, I decided to take a chance and book a Guaranteed Obstructed View Cabin โ something Iโd never done before. As a solo traveler turned duo (yes, the boyfriend is here), this booking came with some twists:
Rebookings (and a few frustrating calls with Princess Cruises)
Lost non-refundable deposits ๐ธ
A denied $350 onboard credit (yes, even with screenshots!)
But in the endโฆ a major win on price and an unexpectedly amazing cabin view! ๐๐พ
We ended up paying just $752 per person, including port taxes and fees โ a massive savings compared to the original solo price. The cabin itself? Spacious, bright, and perfectly located near the front of the ship.
If youโve ever wondered whether booking a Guaranteed Cabin is worth the gamble โ especially on a long transatlantic (repositioning) sailing โ this video is for you. Iโll show you exactly what the room looks like, where itโs located, and whether Iโd do it again.
