Pricing:

Princess originally offered this 5-port transatlantic voyage at $2k each for midship balcony cabins. Upon eliminating 2 ports and substituting 1 port, the balcony price reduced to $1,500. We were told the skipped ports were because the ship was operating on only one engine instead of two, and could achieve only 18 knots instead of the normal 20-something.Onboard we learned that some people received phone calls offering $399 for balcony cabins. I telephoned Princess weekly, asking for the lowest price, but my $1,500 was never reduced. Princess engages in oddly discriminatory and capricious pricing.

Honfleur is a crowded little place that is primarily restaurants. One thing to see: the old wooden church, semi-interesting.
