Going on an invited paid for five day trip in February. Turks Caicos trip. Are we in for a possible chicken nugget ghetto situation, or is Princess fairly more civilized?

Princess is more upscale than Carnival.
I have only taken one but it was to New England and Canada. It was fine.

We had a bunch of old geezers on board but at least there were no riots.

I'm here in Jacksonville and work 1/2 mile from the port. I've only seen Carnival ship and the Princess website doesn't show anything departing from here. Maybe coming soon?

Princess Cruises offers itineraries with Turks and Caicos that often depart from Port Canaveral (Orlando), not Jacksonville, Florida



My bad

If you aren't a SCUBA diver, there's not a lot of reason to go to T&C. I think it's the most overrated spot in the Caribbean. It's a barren rock, with no trees or freshwater. The beaches are comparable to other Caribbean islands that aren't a desert. Everything is incredibly expensive.

The SCUBA is the best in Caribbean. For any other reason, I'd pass for another location.

There are no cruises out of Jacksonville; you are confused.

We have been on Princess 2 times and a third coming up. Older crowd, 60s, depending on itinerary and cost youll get some rougher folks but not bad just a sprinkle of trashiness.
