Herein lays a candid account of what happens when your husband and friends can board the ship (but you can’t). Read on about the trials and tribulations of chasing down the cruise for four days. Experience firsthand the firewalls, loopholes, obstacles, heartburn, and heartache (and of course additional costs) to board a ‘closed loop’ Princess vessel. Oh, and if you want to know what it is like to be flagged as (and treated like) a terrorist then continue to read on about the remaining seven days of our ‘magical’ and ‘relaxing’ Princess vacation.
