I know there was an earlier thread about the cutback in the internet
access for Platinum and Elite members, but I did not see any
suggestions to let Princess know about our dissatisfaction with their

Talking about going on one of those Freestyle Hawaiian Cruises with m
grandaughter, her beau and my daughter.   Took some of my othe
