RFFC: The Ships

For a lot of cruisers, the ship they choose is part of the destination. Some people never step foot off the ship until they are debarking, choosing instead to enjoy the amenities on board. Now on a Run For Fun Cruise, you wouldn't do that but the ship is still important ;)

The RFFC Caribbean Cruise will be sailing on the beautiful Regal Princess which is less than a year old! The ship, which debuted in May 2014, will be visiting Princess Cays, St. Thomas and St. Maarten. Joining the RFFC Alaska in June? Enjoy the Ruby Princess as she sails past glaciers stopping at picturesque wilderness destinations. On the days you aren't island hopping you will be treated to some great entertainment and dining choices!

Traditional and Anytime Dining Rooms are available along with both Specialty and Casual Dining restaurants. Sabatini's offers Italian dining while the Crown Grill was voted one of the Best Steakhouses at Sea by USA Today! Traveling with the kiddos? How about Pizza, Hamburger & Hot Dogs, and Gelato? The Regal Princess and Ruby Princess have enough options for everyone's palette!

Eaten your fair share of lobster and shrimp cocktail and ready for a show? Princess Cruise Lines is ready to deliver. Enjoy the Princess Theater for top of the line musicals. If you prefer to wind down check out a movie under the stars. Just getting your evening started? Head to one of the many lounges for a drink, win big money in the Casino or party in the dance club until you are ready to retreat to your stateroom.

Rooms are a plenty on both the Regal and Ruby Princess with both ships having 19 decks. The Ruby offers 1542 staterooms while the larger Regal Princess offers 1780. Take your pick of a secluded interior room, a balcony with a view or a variety of suites to match your exact taste. The rooms are gorgeously decorated and offer plenty of room for single cruisers, couples and families alike.

As the Regal Princess is newer, it offers top of the line options. Princess has unveiled the Princess @ Sea Messenger service which allows you to message fellow cruisers on board, coming soon to the fleet. The Watercolor Fantasy turns the top deck pools into a sound and light show that is sure to get some oohs and aahs from the crowd.  Check out the SeaWalk for a unique view of the ocean, with glass panels extending 28 feet for an amazing experience during the day and an exciting walk at night as the panels change colors. Princess LIVE! is a TV studio of sorts that offers comedians, culinary demonstrations and game shows.

Remember that you must book directly through Run For Fun Cruise and let them know LIVE from the Lido Deck sent you :)
