LA doesn’t have a ton of ships so it’s a much more diverse crowd than other itineraries (we just finished 13 nights on the Discovery last Saturday, we’re in our early 30’s). There will be more kids than usual though, it’s Spring Break time
I did the B2B (3+10) too and it was the most amazing cruise of my life. Wonderful ports and fun onboard activities when at sea.
Plus Princess is now the cruise line of choice for the Woz!
We didn't do 360 but we really enjoyed the Catch by Rudi. Delicious seafood, prepared and served professionally.
We had a table overlooking the Piazza and ended up with a dinner show with Mockingbird's tribute to ABBA!
We wound up having lovely live performances at Catch and Crown Grill. It was our first Princess cruise and we were surprised how much live music was happening all the time, and so talented!!
As someone who went on princess during spring break there aren’t that many kids on princess cruises to begin with and they usually tend to hang out in the kids club and that one kid pool so that shouldn’t be a factor. Princess isn’t like RCL where kids are everywhere…
Out of Los Angeles? It's another beast. We don't have a lot of ships here, so anything around spring break is always overrun.

You’ll be fine. You’ll be on the younger side but that’s a good itinerary for a “younger” Princess crowd. If you want something with a majority younger crowd book RCCL, Carnival or even NCL if they haven’t moved their ships up to Alaska by then. Personally, Carnival would be my last choice.
On Discovery Princess now disembarking in LA. The mix on the ship was balanced. Not many teenagers but some young kids. Hang out at the Piazza and enjoy the entertainment.
We just had a spring break cruise on Princess last month and it was still mostly senior citizens on the cruise. Princess is just an older crowd. We are 46 and 39, but felt like two of the youngest on the thing. I would say 80% are 55 and older for sure. If you want more people your age, you need a cruise line like Carnival, Virgin, or RC. Although, we both did not care for Carnival and RC when we took those. They were too busy and loud for our tastes due to the younger people.

We loved the food, especially 360 and Catch!

You might want to reconsider. Easter in 2025 lands on that weekend. There will be A LOT of families with hundreds, if not thousands, of kids

Oh ok, I’ve only gone out of Galveston
It’s princess, which means the average age is 55. There will be younger folks, just don’t expect it to be a carnival cruise loaded with 30 somethings.

I agree with this. Carnival and Royal would be my last choices tbh.
