There are certainly more stewards.

The pool area is actually re-arranged, and ended up with many more
deck chairs closer to the pool. Getting rid of the magrodome pool
helps spread the load between the two pools better.

Any personal observation involved in your assessment of
'wait a lot more'?

I've been on caribbean princess three times, and haven't
found that to be the case.

For reasons known but to god, people are actually interested
in 'movies under the stars'. I don't understand it, but they
go there, and they're out of my way.

Youth security seems to keep the kids in the kids areas.

On grand class ships, my worst cruise -- by far -- was on star
princess.
